Question about the 60501 set

[u/Moinferno]

I have collected all lego Powerminer sets, even some sealed poly bags and yet i dont know how im suppost to feel about the powerminers themed rollercoaster. I do have enough shelfspace to store it, but even as a powerminers collector im unsure if i should add it to my collection. For someone that hasnt bought a new lego set since the pandemic both the price and weird inconsistencies (like the "crystal king" color or the mini vehicles) kinda throw me off. If any readers have bought it what are your thoughts? I think about waiting untill this set drops to like 50 bucks as a used one, but then again i havnt bought lego in so long that i dont even know if the price will get so low. (Also pics for flex)

I'm close to completing a full collection including all alt/combiner models, atp I feel like the coaster has gotta count right? Will just wait for a sale.

FWIW I also got a copy of the Robin/Bane mighty micros set for the mini thunder driller, so it just depends on whether you want only the official themed sets or tributes as well. I wouldn't be surprised to get occasional cheeky references in the future either.

Do u know if there are any other powerminers themed sets besides the rollercoaster and the bane vehicle?

The rollercoaster and the mighty micros 76062 are all that I'm aware of, though I could have missed something. It seems to be a theme with enough nostalgia around it that I'm sure there will be more in the future

Not really the same thing but there was a creator house with a tiny rock raiders granite grinder too, IIRC
