Official render of the Small Transport Truck

The Small Transport Truck, also known as the All-Terrain Rock Mover or just Transport Truck, is a vehicle used by the Rock Raiders for speedy transportation. It is a four-wheeled motorized vehicle with a Cargo Hold for hauling materials. Although the vehicle was not featured in its own set, it does appear in the set 4990 Rock Raiders HQ. It does not appear at all in the PlayStation game.

In the Windows game

In the Windows version of LEGO Rock Raiders, the Small Transport Truck is classified as a small vehicle, and requires two Energy Crystals for power. A Rock Raider must be trained as a driver to use a Small Transport Truck.

Without upgrades, this vehicle can travel at a decent 2 blocks per second, and can carry up to three Energy Crystals or pieces of LEGO Ore. It can also carry a single Electric Fence. It cannot, however, carry Building Studs, barriers, or drained Energy Crystals.

Although the Small Transport Truck is a very useful vehicle, it can be problematic with building, as it often delivers more materials than required, preventing the building from being completed until the extra materials are removed, which Rock Raiders often don't recognize for some time. This can be easily remedied, however, by building an Ore Refinery, preventing them from taking Ore anywhere but there, though this bug will still occur with Energy Crystals.

Upgrades

There are three upgrades available for the Small Transport Truck:

  • Engine: Costs 10 pieces of Ore
    Installs a pair of small jet engines similar to those on the Rapid Rider, increasing the vehicle's route speed from 2 blocks per second to 3 blocks per second.
  • Scanner: Costs 5 pieces of Ore
    Installs a radar aboard the vehicle, with a scanning radius of 4 blocks.
  • Carry Capability: Costs 5 pieces of Ore
    Adds a second cargo hold to the vehicle, doubling the capacity from 3 to 6. It can still only carry a single Electric Fence.

Dependency

The Small Transport Truck costs 2 Energy Crystals and requires the following for teleportation:

The Small Transport Truck does not make much appearance in the books and comics, likely due to it not coming in a set of its own, and being overshadowed by consistently-named vehicles as a result. Its only major appearance in the books is in High Adventure Deep Underground, where Axle uses it to rescue Bandit from an Ice Monster attack. While escaping with Jet, they encounter a slumbering Rock Whale, who wakes up and causes a magma flow.
