Summary

Description A piece of concept art for the LEGO Rock Raiders theme. The art shows an underground scene with Rock Raiders, mining vehicles, and creatures. The 1973–1998 LEGO logo and a 2×4 red LEGO brick from the LEGO System logo are in the upper left corner. The upper right corner is partially obscured by a photograph of a Rock Raiders drill piece.

In the scene, an early Chrome Crusher is being attacked by a rock monster, and rocks in its cargo hold are falling into a lava chasm. Several Rock Raider minifigures with early designs are walking in the bottom left corner, including two green alien creatures. On the left side is a six-wheeled vehicle with turrets, a drill made out of gear pieces, and two robotic arms, possibly an early Large Mobile Laser Cutter. Behind it is a large cave opening shaped like a mouth, and a rock monster with a tail crawling out of it; the ground in front of the opening is covered with opened power crystal rocks. On the right side is an early Loader Dozer with turrets and a drill. Above the rock monster is a Hover Scout and another flying vehicle. In the upper right corner is some sort of giant mobile HQ.

Original caption: "Concept sketches such as the one above show the imaginative world a child enters when playing with the set. A written "universe description" fleshes out this world further, giving the set a background story, and each Mini figure a character."
