First of the new year!

6977 Arachnoid Star Base

Description: Released in 1998 as a part of the Insectoids series, this was the largest set of the line. Retail price was about 60 bucks then, now can be found MISB for about 100 dollars. Containing 419 parts and 4 minifigs, the set had alot of those neat trans blue and green parts. Also featured were light and sound which the stinger part emits.

My take: I wanted this set as it has lots of trans colored goodies. I think that light and sound parts are getting more and more in demand. It looks like you could roll it or have it take flight for playability. Until next week!
