This set is awesome! It has a ton of great stuff and is very cheap. The set contains a lot of useful/rare parts, has great robot designs, good colors, and is cheap. I am short on time, so I won't list pros and cons-but I recommend this set to all, either for parts or playing.

The robo pod is one of the only pods that actually appealed to me.The robot with lasers, and you can pretty much build anything from the X-Pod theme, like i've probably made about 10 different models using this set. It also comes with the ever usefull pod storage. IT COMES WITH CHROME!

Im not really into X pod or creater sets until I saw this one.So I got this set and when i finshed building it I was impressed.The main model is cool and I like how the robot moves.I think this set was worth buying!

I'll just do some lil' old pros an' cons for this set :)

-Pros

• -Lots of cool parts, Very good for MOCs
• -Cheap price
• -the 'pod' is good for storing things (not just lego)
• -Show you how to make some rather cool things

-Cons

• -Some of the models look rather strange...
• -Nothing else that I can think of

I was a large X-Pod collector, as it started with the red pod, and unfortunately, ended with the 2007 robo pod. By that time, my X-Pods had almost completely merged with my other pieces, and so I lost interest in X-Pods. This, however, was one of my favorites, as it includes one of the last "rolling pod" instructions. With a few silver pieces and lots of dark blue clear pieces, including a lot of white, added with the size of an X-Pod, equals a lot of fun, that can fit inside your pocket!
Pros:
3 models
cool robot
half posable
rare pieces
Cons:
half posable
limited piece combinations
Get it if you want to finish your X-Pod collection, but I would suggest the blue jet X-Pod for a starter set.
