About World Racers
One year, nine sets
World Racers belongs to Racers, the long-running car theme, and appeared in 2010 only. Rather than presenting a single car on its own, each main set pairs vehicles with a setting and obstacles, so the focus is on play scenes. The locations are easy to read from the names alone: a desert, an icy mountain, an alligator swamp, a reef and a canyon. Because the range is so short, it is one of the easier Racers sub-themes to collect in full. Its larger sets are also the most elaborate builds Racers produced in that final phase of the theme.
Sets by size
Desert of Destruction (8864-1) leads with 966 pieces, nearly double the next set, Blizzard's Peak (8863-1) with 504. Gator Swamp (8899-1) has 354 pieces, Wreckage Road (8898-1) has 288 and Jagged Jaws Reef (8897-1) has 191. Snake Canyon (8896-1) is a small 57-piece set, and two polybags, World Race Buggy (30032-1, 35 pieces) and World Race Powerboat (30031-1, 27 pieces), offer an easy entry point.
