“I think Squidman's Pitstop is a nifty little set. It may not be physically very big, but all the contents including the accessories, vehicles, and minifigures make it seem like to have a fair amount to mess around with. ”

“I think everyone should know that IMO "Squidman's Pit-Stop" is still a worthwhile set to buy. I got loads of play out of it despite its downsides, and had a blast with the great figures. You truly can do a lot with this set and is a great set to add to a Space Police III... More collection.”
