Honestly, I miss when LEGO did themes like Power Miners, Space Police, and 2007 + 2013 Castle. They all have a certain spark I like which modern LEGO themes now don't have, atleast in my opinion
Dang, this whole video is giving me a bit of existentialism. I recently got back into Power Miners and I'm ordering all the sets so I can have the collection again (since all the ones I had from my childhood got destroyed or mysteriously disappeared) and here you are over 10 years later making a custom vehicle for the series. 13 hours ago at the time I'm making this comment too, which is just amazing! Can't believe the timing. Your editing skills are also pretty on point for a small channel like yours, and the MOC looks pretty sweet too!
That’s a crazy coincidence! Well… maybe. Probably just Google using the data it collected from you to personalize your recommendations, but really small world with the timing of it nonetheless. Also, thanks for the kind words and the sub! (assuming that was you)
I’m glad I’m not the only one, this was def top 3 best Lego themes, unfortunately all my sets ended up destroyed, however I’m slowly buying them all back :) awesome moc as well
As a kid, I didn't realize it, but it helped that the first wave was all cheap! I wasn't really able to get any expensive sets, so this theme was amazing! I loved it more than any other lego theme back then, and still do now
I would love to see power miners make a return again. Same style as the OG and with new crystal pieces and colours, along with cool new machines and rock monsters.
Rock Raiders were the precursors to the Power Miners for those who are curious, same basic concept: miners looking for energy rich crystals and are attacked by various monsters who will consume the crystals for energy.
I may be looking through rose-tinted nostalgia goggles, but I can’t help but feel like the late 2000s early 2010s era of lego was one of the best eras in lego history (not to say that they don’t produce good lines now. There are still current lines I really like), and one of my favorite lines from that time was power miners!
Same! Loved the power miners sets when was a kid, next to the Atlantis set. Even the 2010s sets in general I loved because it was quality creativity. Though personally I'm not a big fan of new lego. They've just been stuck on Ninjago for too long, Vidyo's too bland and Dots is only a neat idea as an arts and crafts set.
Dude you put a lot of effort into this! As a big fan of the series back in the day, I say this really feels like a power miners set! Great theming and also sets itself apart from the OG sets. Overall great design!!
I like what you did here! You used the resources you had and came up with something that looks surprisingly like a Power Miners set! I LOVED the story you gave behind this MOC!
As a Power Miners fan, I love how you put your heart into making a new vehicle and character for them a decade later. But just as a likeminded fan, instead of plow pummeler, might I offer a few alternative alliteration suggestions? Slate Scraper Diorite Dozer Hopper Hauler/Hopper Hurler Or maybe the Pyrite Plow? I personally think Hopper Hurler one fits it perfectly, it stores crystals in a hopper of sorts, and hurls the remaining debris away.
This sounds stupid, but a way to tilt the plow so it can push things out of the way. The lift feature can benefit from it as well. Taking a bit of knowledge from the bucket excavator could help.
The football player and artists mini figures in that one scene were like the first two collectible mini figs I ever got lol. Also yeah power miners were literally like some of the best sets lego made. I just wish I had one of the special sets lol. Cool build man
Got me all excited cause I love this theme. How could you? In all seriousness, I just got sets 2-5. Trying to find a stone chopper and Crystal sweeper that are appropriately priced
OH! I have a wired bottom piece for a green rock golem thing but I never knew where it came from, i saw the thumbnail and I was like, wait that’s like the one I’ve got! So it’s from a range called power miners!
B3 I just started watching your videos on your channel yesterday they were so great hey I have something to tell you do you think you can make a power minor boss battle?
I was just a little kid when power miners started I wish I could get a sealed power miners set without paying the same price as you’d pay for a UCS Star Wars set
i really liked leog power miners, partially coz i'm form area where it's basiclaly a stereotype that everyone there is a coal miner, but the fact that power miner's lecagy still lives on with the crystals or the wheel/drill molds in ninjago is something else
Love the design but... I really wish you tried to get some inspiration from lego rock raiders especially the "loader dozer" you could have made a more up to date version of that... But I still am very happy to see that I'm not the only one who misses this trend
There's kinda another rule of the power miners sets, most of the power miner machines have numbers (1-5 which is In your collection), so this one could be number 6 in your collection.
Lego just feeding off of franchises these days is so sad, it is so unbelievably counterintuitive to have a product that promotes creativity come from something they didnt come up with
Honestly, I miss when LEGO did themes like Power Miners, Space Police, and 2007 + 2013 Castle. They all have a certain spark I like which modern LEGO themes now don't have, atleast in my opinion
100%
All we get nowadays are licensed sets and Ninjago wannabes, I miss the old original LEGO themes so much.
@@TheB3 Not only that but back then LEGO didnt put much attention to licenced themes as they did now
I missed creative themes.
Yeah
@@TheB3 ninjago is good though but I think because it was such a perfect show and sets they tried to remake it

@@TheB3 Yup it was, no problem!
That is very expensive
Hey, where do you buy Lego Power Miners?
@@mentalitamar yeah where do you?
I’m glad I’m not the only one, this was def top 3 best Lego themes, unfortunately all my sets ended up destroyed, however I’m slowly buying them all back :) awesome moc as well
Thanks! Good luck getting your collection back!
Hey, where do you buy Lego Power Miners?
I’d love power miners to have a reboot or a part 2 or something. They made great functional sets and I love the colour scheme too!
As a kid, I didn't realize it, but it helped that the first wave was all cheap! I wasn't really able to get any expensive sets, so this theme was amazing! I loved it more than any other lego theme back then, and still do now
Although it's a bit clickbait-y, great content. Do more power miners stuff, gotta keep the fandom alive!
Thanks! I'm planning on doing more in the future.
I would love to see power miners make a return again. Same style as the OG and with new crystal pieces and colours, along with cool new machines and rock monsters.
They could do something really special with a revival, I’d love to see it
Power miners was always one of the best original lego series. Of the sets I owned the crystal king was always my favorite
Jealous! I always wanted that one
Rock Raiders were the precursors to the Power Miners for those who are curious, same basic concept: miners looking for energy rich crystals and are attacked by various monsters who will consume the crystals for energy.
I wish I was around back then, those sets look sick!
What kind of custom projects have YOU made?
A car
sanctum sancturum

Nice use of jays torso piece
Dude you put a lot of effort into this! As a big fan of the series back in the day, I say this really feels like a power miners set! Great theming and also sets itself apart from the OG sets. Overall great design!!
Thank you! I really tried to make something that was unique, yet still in-keeping with the classic sets.
My favorite themes are usually the miscellaneous themes like Power Miners, Pharaoh's quest, Atlantis, Space Police, etc.
2010 original LEGO themes were the best, modern originals and licensed themes don’t even come close 😅
I like what you did here! You used the resources you had and came up with something that looks surprisingly like a Power Miners set! I LOVED the story you gave behind this MOC!
I missed those Little Rock monsters.
So basically Boulder blaster
Amazing MOC nonetheless
Let us keep the power miners fandom alive
I guess so. I never owned that set, but admittedly it does look very similar.
@@zooksteralfredius323 yes
If this is on Lego ideas I would support this.
I appreciate you taking the time to talk through your process for Moc creation, it gave me something to think about in terms of my own process
This is amazing!! (If I already commented I don’t remember I rewatch your guy’s videos)
I wish I had Lego Power Miners sets.
Insanely well done! Sweet build!
I love power miners
As a Power Miners fan, I love how you put your heart into making a new vehicle and character for them a decade later. But just as a likeminded fan, instead of plow pummeler, might I offer a few alternative alliteration suggestions?
Slate Scraper
Diorite Dozer
Hopper Hauler/Hopper Hurler
Or maybe the Pyrite Plow?
I personally think Hopper Hurler one fits it perfectly, it stores crystals in a hopper of sorts, and hurls the remaining debris away.
4:02 I know it's silly, but his made me laugh a lot.
You really had me believing they brought back Power Miners in the year of our Lord two thousand twenty-two :(
RIP I wish…
Please this is the set that makes me feel like childhood memory
Same
I remember power miners as a kid. I only had the smallest set, but I thought it was the coolest series ever
me too, i just decided im gonna buy all of them now.
I really liked power miners but one thing I did miss from what I would say in the golden age of Lego was the Lego heroica board games
YES! We never had any, but I always wanted them!
this is really cool! Well done!
Ah so I'm not the only one hit like a frait train with nostalgia
The nostalgia is real.
*Frate
@@wefourbears ah
loved power miners was my child hood
I would buy this set and this is a awesome build, congrats man.
Thank you!
@@TheB3 Your welcome
This sounds stupid, but a way to tilt the plow so it can push things out of the way. The lift feature can benefit from it as well. Taking a bit of knowledge from the bucket excavator could help.
Clutch powers
Crystal catcher
im a little late but this is a very cool moc
Happy to see new people, thanks!
The football player and artists mini figures in that one scene were like the first two collectible mini figs I ever got lol. Also yeah power miners were literally like some of the best sets lego made. I just wish I had one of the special sets lol. Cool build man
one of the best themes from my childhood
Add in a few blue pieces and it’ll be vehicle ID #13 that was missing in the lineup
u have supplied wut day shoulda
Indeed
7:51 yes, yes it was 🥲
Wow
I think a better title for bob would be “clean-up crew” because he picks up the mess after
Got me all excited cause I love this theme. How could you?
In all seriousness, I just got sets 2-5. Trying to find a stone chopper and Crystal sweeper that are appropriately priced
you know we all wish
i forgot about those

OH! I have a wired bottom piece for a green rock golem thing but I never knew where it came from, i saw the thumbnail and I was like, wait that’s like the one I’ve got! So it’s from a range called power miners!
Can you do a video where you show us how you build it and which materials you use?
Heyy, it even properly follows the color scheme by only having orange at the play features!
i remember those
we need power miners back
It looks really good, but sooner or later Lego would make a big scoop that will fit your MOC.
We’re approaching the 2/3 mark of 2024, and still no Power Miner set :(.
B3 I just started watching your videos on your channel yesterday they were so great hey I have something to tell you do you think you can make a power minor boss battle?
Hey, this shit is fucking awesome
I was just a little kid when power miners started I wish I could get a sealed power miners set without paying the same price as you’d pay for a UCS Star Wars set
I miss power miners
I’m in the process of buying all the sets again because nostalgia
Good for you!
We’re lucky enough to have kept the sets we had as kids and currently tracking down the ones we didn’t…
Hey, where do you buy Lego Power Miners?
@@mentalitamar local lego stores
i really liked leog power miners, partially coz i'm form area where it's basiclaly a stereotype that everyone there is a coal miner, but the fact that power miner's lecagy still lives on with the crystals or the wheel/drill molds in ninjago is something else
leog
if it ain’t real ima cry
Cave cleaner is a better name
Pls lego bring it back
If only…
The digger and functions are orange, the actually thing is green.
you could name it the crystal catcher
This makes me miss rock raiders.

POWER MINERS REBOOT?!?!
When I was kid I would use the rock monster mouth the pull the heads off my other minifigures. Good times 😪.
R. R. Slugger
I just watched his video about LEGO retiring a color lol
Rock raiders would have been cool to collect too
Hopefully they add dwayne "the rock" johnson in this one.
Been at it since 1999 actually
Rock Raiders???
Does that mean lego Will revive the old Lego power miners sets🤔🤔🤔
Hey make the lego hero factory beast series in 2022
i want this back so badly!! 😞
Me too! 😔
Love the design but... I really wish you tried to get some inspiration from lego rock raiders especially the "loader dozer" you could have made a more up to date version of that...
But I still am very happy to see that I'm not the only one who misses this trend
Rock Raiders was a bit before our time, but some of those designs look really cool! Could be an idea for the future...
iam also able to pute crystals in some of my holes (only two of all ofthem)
Maybe the theme can make better designs of the rock monsters.
Fun fact Lego power miner is from 1009 oh he already Said it but I already new it from my Lego book where I got orange space man
Bob the sweeper
Let me get the chainsaw finished
im doing a custum peter parkers apartment
Assuming it’s the NWH one? Sounds cool!
Didn't they have a movie based of the Lego sets
There's kinda another rule of the power miners sets, most of the power miner machines have numbers (1-5 which is In your collection), so this one could be number 6 in your collection.
LEGO Group, are you listening??????
Hi
