God-tier thumbnail, never clicked anything faster in my life. I hope I can be as cool as Biker Bob one day. Honestly had never seen any of these sets before - thanks for introducing me!
You know, Super Station Master in the Lego Loco Intro was actually just the regular Station Master minifig with a red cape and exclusive head print. In fact, I actually built that exact version of him from the Lego Loco Intro, and he proudly sits on the radio station antenna in my city, keeping a ever vigilant watch over the Lego Railways in my city.
Hey, Slugger, so I was wondering if the minfig Ninja - Samurai, Blue Old (Bricklink description) would fall into your criteria for set-exclusive torso and head print. I can't find any signs of either of them being used elsewhere. I recently got that one in a really cheap, unassuming lego haul, which I only picked up after price checking the minifigs in it and discovered that specific one's rarity.
Ah what the heck! I swear I checked this one! 😭 No, you’re totally right - this one would count and bring 1998’s total of unique torso & head combos up to 3. For anyone else reading, here’s a link to the samurai in question: www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?M=cas054#T=S&O={%22iconly%22:0}
@@RRSlugger There's a lot to look into, something is bound to fall through the cracks. I'm just glad I was able to bring something to your attention after all the stuff I've learned from your videos!
Between the crazy scientist with a flaming time-travel chair, the government agent tailing him, and now these weirdos...Timmy really seems to have a problem finding the right crowd.
I love how you called him "Mister Loco" at 4:08, since as a kid, I always thought that guy WAS "Lego Loco". Like, that's just his name, like Super Mario.
I completely forgot about Biker Bob! I had him back in the day, though I don't think I have him anymore. Interestingly, I don't remember ever having Lego Creator though
Honestly, it’s entirely possible that leftover Biker Bobs might have been sold at Lego kiosks the following year. It’s really hard to say definitively how sets were released back then. 🤔
As a zillennial who's mentally stuck in the late 90s and early 00s, I adore this channel. Not just nostalgia, but so high quality too! I hope you do some more stuff on Life on Mars or Arctic!
I only discovered your channel roughly 2 months ago I wanna say, but in that short time you’ve grown to be one of my all time favorite TH-cam channels on the website. The production value, narration, and comedy all are nothing short of top notch. I could listen to a guy talk about niche Lego tidbits all day long and you fill that hole perfectly, one I didn’t even know I needed filled. Thanks for all the work you do man, I don’t know how each and every one of your videos maintains such high quality while coming out in the rate which they do, but I’m grateful for it! I hope you get so much more exposure this year, you deserve it!
Thank you very much! That means a lot to me. ❤️ I’m having fun with each video I make and it’s definitely interesting having more eyes on the channel now - more people out there to catch my mistakes, haha. 😅
Well said, I second that! 45year old from quebec, Canada, who discovered rick raiders through your videos, and realized I got some these parts in my stuff... I look forward to more lego masterfulness from you Slugger!!! Cheers and thanks a whole lot for your investigative and beautiful motion, very inspiring stuff!!!!
The Super station master I remember came with two heads: The one with the red eye covering and one with the normal mustachioed face. In the pic of him you can also see he's not wearing the cape. This is so you can basically act out the intro movie of Lego Loco and have the regular station master transform into the super station master. I also tend to swap out part of the leg pieces so that he at least has some red underpants on to retain some level of modesty and more closely resemble his appearance in Lego Island 2. (And when you do the Super Station master transformation in Lego Loco by building some phone booths for him to change into) I never realised the red axle pieces were hard to find! I currently use them for a small classic space buggy MOC.
@@RRSlugger I only remember from getting it with Lego Loco as a child, but my recollection was that it did come with both heads. One Lego game that I always wished I was able to recreate the cars/drivers from was Lego Stunt Rally. Some of the opponent cars looked really cool; I always wanted the Mr. X Rocket car! It wasn't until recently that I finally mocked it last year.
Does anyone remember the Time Cruisers watch? Not the one released in 2000, but the one that was released along side the theme in 1997? RR do you have one of these?
@@RRSlugger Well hopefully you will come across one someday! I remember the watch had this ring around the face that had a very satisfying and addictive click-y ratchet action to it. BTW, looking forward too your next live stream!
I have a surprising amount of those exclusive minifigures! I wouldn't be surprised that they have a lot of play wear since child me didn't know just how difficult-to-get some of them are. That shirt with the brick on it feels very much like it would have been included in many classic building buckets.
Wow, this just unlocked some great old memories! I used to have Biker Bob and Lego Creator back when I was young, but didn't realize they came together. It all makes sense now. Sadly I lost Biker Bob years ago, so this was a great flashback. Biker Bob is a bad mother and deserves all this love and attention!
i resently bought an old house and when i was looking around the bacement i found biker bob's head jammed in the dirt floor. funny how small tings can make people discover something so spesial in some randome places! just ordered a sealed Biker bob and cant wait to desplay him in all his glory next to my old copy of lego cretor when im done renovating the house!
My cousin gave me his lego collection and in it I found the Timmy the time traveller head in it. I always wondered where it came (he had no time cruisers sets) but turns out it came with his lego creator cd
This may be one of my favorite videos of yours so far! Also, I can’t believe I didn’t know this until Solar Sands’ video, but the fact that you make the music for all these videos elevates them to a new level of impressive. Seriously, for a youtube channel, the production quality is off the charts here. Any chance we’d ever get a behind the scenes look at the making of these?
Thank you! I had a lot of fun with this video. For behind-the-scenes content, I actually have two videos that fill that niche quite well. Last May was Slugger’s birthday, and in that video I went through the process of designing the channel and making videos. I’ve also done a video on how I create the music for the channel. Hopefully one of those will be what you’re looking for! 😊
I had the creator game! But it was sold in a jewel case package in my country (and it was few years past 1998) so I've never got the biker dude :( And the game itself... building anything was tedious, good thing it had a lot of preset builds so I could make TNT-shooting car to ride and blow up the city. The building menu for the racing car in Lego Racers 2 was so much simpler but also so much better!
I got re-recommended this video by the TH-cam algorithm recently and it reminded me of an interesting story - A day or so after this video was uploaded I had the bright idea of checking the local antique store that has a small LEGO section to see if there were any classic sets. The booth had recently refreshed their inventory and Biker Bob happened to be on display which took me by surprise. Got to go home with Biker Bob that day
I could have lived another 100 years without noticing the similarities between the faces of Señor Palomar and Ogel. Seemingly trivial tidbits like these (and what they represent) are one of the main reasons why I like your videos so much.
I clicked this video so fast when I saw it! The three PC CD Rom promo sets have been the subjects of fascination to me for years. Back in 2003 I was sent both Biker Bob and the Hand Car set by The LEGO Group's sensational UK customer service team after my grandmother wrote them a letter about an apparent moulding error on some of elements in one of my Orient Expedition sets. At the time I had no idea either existed- my copies of LEGO Creator and LEGO Loco were the later released 'Masterpiece' versions without the included sets. 8 year old me was flabbergasted to see that the Super Station Master from the Loco intro video was in fact a real minifigure! That's a real testament to LEGO's customer service! (AND they sent me replacement parts for my other OE set. Perfection.) Slugger, you just keep hitting the home runs. You are a goldmine of LEGO-y goodness.
@@RRSlugger As a matter of fact I do! It was piece number 4182987, the dark orange columns from set 7411 'Tygurah's Roar' For some odd reason they had little to no clutch power, as if there had been an issue while moulding them (something I've never encountered in a LEGO set since!)
As someone who had Lego Loco and the handcar set, thinking back on how two heads were included for the Super Station Master - one masked and one generic mustached print - was kind of revolutionary at the time I'd imagine. I still have the figure and it's default head. The masked version and the red cape have since been lost to time.
Man LEGO Creator! You're hitting me hard with the nostalgia right there, I would cover everything in TNT like minecraft and blow it all up. I even managed to make the PC crash a couple times doing that. And yes I even had biker bob !
as a kid I found an unopened box of biker bob at a thrift store, of course i opened and built him the day i got it, and that was over 2 decades ago, but i still have the parts somewhere in my collection
Despite never seeing the set or figure before, when the video started I instantly had LEGO Creator come to mind. I played that game more than any of the other old CD ROM games back in the day. That tri-wheeled motocycle design was iconic to the game. Even though I never knew the great Biker Bob until now, his class and style has always been with me. 😎
Biker Bob can teach us all two important lessons: Leather is cool and simplicity is perfection. Another R.R. Slugger classic. It was an instant click from me!
I know nothing about Legos. But I do have the basic human decency to understand the magnitude of what R.R. Slugger is doing here. This is the Stanley Kubrick of TH-cam, and that's being generous to Stanley. The depth of knowledge. The commanding yet soothing concise explanation of what makes each piece special. The smooth, well mastered tunes in the background. All perfectly combined and crafted exactly to his specifications. And the mascot. A slug with a calm, welcoming smile and eyes showcasing excitement to educate everyone on the divinity of Legos and the craft. If this isn't the real peak TH-cam content, then I don't know what is.
Thank you! While I can't call myself anywhere near the craftsman Kubrick was, I appreciate your comments nonetheless. ❤️️ There are a ton of trends propagated on TH-cam and other social media platforms I actively try not to emulate - I'm glad to hear it is appreciated!
My grandfather had this set in a big bag of Lego, I recognize both the main bit of the bike and Bob's head and torso, I wish I knew what happened to those Legos
Honestly modified prints are really cool especially when it’s just the same print but in a different print color or on a different part color. I wish to build a impressive collection just for my own customization
So, about the weird, yellow shirt guy with a mask wandering around with Tim : that's from Lego Loco, a sort of "Lego sim city". I loved this game, there were a lot of Easter eggs and during the intro there's this mailman (the guy without the mask) that secretly is a super hero, superman style (with mask). The red arrow on his shirt is the logo of the mail service. During the intro, if my memory doesn't fail, the boy is doing some shenanigans with the cart when suddenly a train threatens to hit it. Then mr. super post dude saves the day by redirecting the train by changing its path using a lever. Pretty sure this intro is on TH-cam, I'm gonna see how good is my memory. Anyways, top notch content as always
I don't know how common they were in Bob's day, but I remember wanting the World Racers set "Snake Canyon" because one of the racers had that same black visor, and I don't remember seeing it very often at the time, if ever
@@RRSlugger it was, i had to finish a presentation in under 30 or 40 minutes (thank goodness it was only five slides), and had to quickly get some pieces to start building something
RR Slugger, I’ll admit it, I don’t know how you do it. You’ve redefined LEGO reviews/retrospect videos and are setting the bar quite high. Keep it up sir, and thanks for providing us a fascinating video on Biker Bob. I love Biker Bob’s look so much and when compared to the other figures LEGO was releasing at that time, his simple torso is calm and classy.
Ah slugger, you never disappoint with the great videos! I have to say, as tedious as it must be, the stop motion is always a pleasure to watch. Keep up the great work!
ah yes, i remember getting Biker Bob when i got that game, then i gave him to one of my sister's friend. but the LEGO creator game has been a staple of my childhood, though i remember playing it for so long, that it caused a bug that made pieces drag out of the model and endlessly move to one direction.
OMG! I have one! I found it in the Lego Creator PC game box! :D I remember saying it looked like my dad back then lol I also loved a lot that game, even if it was... complicated
You really do much more than just say "Heres the set". Can't believe I found this channel by clicking on a video called "the most insane youtuber I've ever seen" lol. I am 100% here for it, the fun tone and high detail are fantastic and I also really appreciate how you contextualize every set in both Lego history and theme history.
Lego loco is actually a pretty nostalgic game for me, i can still picture the shadows of the clouds crossing the different terrain... i wonder if thats still sitting around here somewhere
This video really is testament to your amazing presentation skills, to be able to make such an interesting video about a handful of small sets! I’ve always been fascinated by these sets that came with games, I love that somehow you happen to make videos about the type of LEGO I’m so interested by. I guess it’s just this late 90s-early 00s period in general that I love. Biker Bob has been an iconic figure for me ever since a LEGO convention about a decade ago where there was a seller with a stall that had a glass cabinet full of Biker Bob sealed sets, that they weren’t selling for that much. One of the most interesting sellers I’ve seen. And of course I bought one! (Don’t ask me where it is now though…)
God-tier thumbnail, never clicked anything faster in my life. I hope I can be as cool as Biker Bob one day. Honestly had never seen any of these sets before - thanks for introducing me!

So many amazing MOCs! Ahhhh!!
Thanks for making me feel the urge to get me a Biker Bob set now somehow!
Slugger at it again with the S tier content
Another fantastic video Slugger, even at over 22,000 subs you're underrated. It's always evident the amount of work you put into your projects
You're truly dedicated to your craft.
Being this early to a slugger video is truly a great blessing
Bob's obviously cool but that King set is something else.
*LEGO's greatest character ever made! Biker Bob!*
imagine my excitement seeing Slugger made an entire video about Biker Bob 😂
The lego loco superhero or super station master is my fav minifig I own
RR Slugger, I’ll admit it, I don’t know how you do it. You’ve redefined LEGO reviews/retrospect videos and are setting the bar quite high. Keep it up sir, and thanks for providing us a fascinating video on Biker Bob.
I love Biker Bob’s look so much and when compared to the other figures LEGO was releasing at that time, his simple torso is calm and classy.
Thank you! I still make plenty of mistakes in these videos, but I’m having fun making them and I guess that’s what matters. 😊
R.R. Slugger knows what the people want
The surprise TimeCruisers reveal is about the only time I wasn’t mad at clickbait
That face print could be a Lego Heisenberg!
I actually got Mr. Loco's head in a garage sale years ago. I never knew what set it came from until now
Aw yeah another Slugger video! Love this channel
Ah slugger, you never disappoint with the great videos! I have to say, as tedious as it must be, the stop motion is always a pleasure to watch. Keep up the great work!
A whole vid just about all the Lego video game exclusive sets would be pretty cool
These are certainly the big three. Most of the rest are just minifigures from the game… definitely less exciting. 😅
ah yes, i remember getting Biker Bob when i got that game, then i gave him to one of my sister's friend.
but the LEGO creator game has been a staple of my childhood, though i remember playing it for so long, that it caused a bug that made pieces drag out of the model and endlessly move to one direction.
He does look pretty darn cool
OMG! I have one! I found it in the Lego Creator PC game box! :D I remember saying it looked like my dad back then lol
I also loved a lot that game, even if it was... complicated
Honestly, I always wondered where the heck a few of the Minifigure torsos I had came from, this answers a couple of them!
You really do much more than just say "Heres the set". Can't believe I found this channel by clicking on a video called "the most insane youtuber I've ever seen" lol. I am 100% here for it, the fun tone and high detail are fantastic and I also really appreciate how you contextualize every set in both Lego history and theme history.
Thank you! I pride myself on going “beyond the set” when it comes to reviews - I’m glad to see it’s appreciated! 😊
Lego loco is actually a pretty nostalgic game for me, i can still picture the shadows of the clouds crossing the different terrain... i wonder if thats still sitting around here somewhere
not a chance it happens but a biker bob remake for the stunts theme would be so cool!
5:28 Omg I can't unsee it now 😂😂😂
This video really is testament to your amazing presentation skills, to be able to make such an interesting video about a handful of small sets!
I’ve always been fascinated by these sets that came with games, I love that somehow you happen to make videos about the type of LEGO I’m so interested by. I guess it’s just this late 90s-early 00s period in general that I love.
Biker Bob has been an iconic figure for me ever since a LEGO convention about a decade ago where there was a seller with a stall that had a glass cabinet full of Biker Bob sealed sets, that they weren’t selling for that much. One of the most interesting sellers I’ve seen. And of course I bought one! (Don’t ask me where it is now though…)
