Talk about a nostalgia bomb! Nice update. I remember seeing the original set adverts in my Beano comics.

Daamn, looks terrific! I had the set back in the day and it was one of the most playable one since there wasn't much motors in lego and only early pneumatics.

But where do you strike to make the guy drop out?

Oh my goodness, that purple! Such a simple MOC, but I want it. This is so awesome.

Now it just needs an opponent. Probably in teal.

TLG just brought back teal, so... @heyitsdisty, you know what to do!

I really wanted to include an ejector function! Sadly I couldn't figure out a reliable way of doing it. ;_;

I have vague plans to build a teal quadbike to go with this one. :)
