[List of appearances]

Rock Monsters are the main inhabitants of Planet U. These creatures wanted to stop the Rock Raiders from gaining Brickonium, since they needed it as food. They only appeared in two Rock Raiders sets, but appeared in multitude in the games and books. Rock Monsters are massive humanoid creatures, and appear to be made of solid stone.

In-game history[edit | edit source]

These monsters, though only in two sets, were in numerous areas in the the Rock Raiders PC game. In the PS1 Game, however, they were a rare sight. Rock Monsters are tough, and easily recognized by their large size and growling when near one. A Rock Monster has been seen to blend into the rock terrain of the caves in a cutscene, though this is not shown in detail in-game. Though somewhat slow, they are deadly, and can destroy vehicles, buildings and even Rock Raiders. The only way to defeat these monsters is to get a laser-based weapon and zap it until it's defeated. The monster then dies, leaving two or three baby Rock Monsters behind, which run away, although they have been known to stay around base.

Rock Monsters also appear in the jungle and asteroid belt in LEGO Island 2, confirming the fact in the Rock Raiders manual that Chief encountered a Rock Monster in his youth. They could possibly be all over the universe.

In Books[edit | edit source]

In the three Rock Raiders books, Rock Monsters behave much the same as in the games. There is also evidence found by the Rock Raiders in High Adventure, Deep Underground that the monsters once were an intelligent civilization.
