Small and powerful.
" This motor is a usefull little device that is realy good, to make models move. It is fairly powerfull, and great for small creations. For big, models that require a very powerful motor, i would recomend the XL motor. I wouild also recomend some sort of control over the motor, such as IR remote or an extra switch for larger creations, but it still works fine plugged directly into the battery bow. Overall a Great motor.

Bring on the Hailfire droid!
" This is one of my favorite star wars lego sets, and one of my most played with. It is all a great design and is well priced at £20.00. It is a great addition to any star wars lego collection, because it includes a few battle droids as well as the hailfire droid. A great Purchase.

Excavator
" I got this for my birthday, and it was my favorite present. It is a huge set and well worth £40.00. It was great fun to build and took about 2 hours to build. The enginering envolved is very clever, and it is a realy sturdy design. I found adding power functions motors made it much better to play around with, so i would recomend paying an extra £20.00 for PF motors if you dont already have some. It would be better if there were instructions to add motors that make the excavator drive around as well as just adjust the boom, but it is still a brilliant set.

RFID sensor
" I got this sensor for my birthday, and i love it. It Is easy to get to grips with and is very reliable. It has so many uses, and i use it in lots of my nxt creations. It is one of my favorite sensors and i have a wide variety of hitechnic sensor as well as the standared ones that came with nxt, the best third party sensor there is! It is however a bit pricy at £40.00, but it is a great sensor.

A Great sensor!
" I bought this sensor, to use With my PF Motors and my old RIS, and it has not let me down! It gives good control over both RIS and PF motors. The NXT-G blocks are a little confusing when programming the RIS, but after some time I finaly got used to it. It is fairly easy to program PF with it, but it would be good if it could respond to the PF remote control. Overall a great sensor that is well priced, and recommended for some-one with PF, or RIS.

A good sensor
" The High technic Compass sensor is a great sensor, which is reliable and gives acurate results. It is well priced and is fun to use... When you understand how to program it. Although once you know how to use it, it is very fun and usefull, It is a fairly complex sensor to get to grips with. Not recomeneded for someone new to NXT-G, but for advanced users it is a great sensor.

Vision for NXT!
" This sensor is exelent! and is very good for creating 'robots with vision'. It is very usefull and can detect objects very well. I got mine with the NXT base mindstorms set, and would probably not pay £22 for another one, because there is not much use for two, but as a replacement part mabe. Overall a great sensor for NXT.
