The Red Cruiser[1] is a Time Cruisers minifigure from the Board Games set GA04 Time Cruisers Board Game, released in 1997.
Description[]
The Red Cruiser is comprised of minifigure pieces commonly seen in the Town theme, especially its Race subtheme, with him particularly sharing much in common with Indy LeMans. He wears entirely bright red clothing. His torso is a racing outfit printed with white and blue lines, along with two white stars. His head is printed with black sunglasses and a smiling mouth. While he does not have any headgear or accessories by default, he can acquire them through playing the board game and collecting artifacts.
Background[]
Although Dr. Cyber discovers time travel, nobody on Earth believes him. Therefore, the Red Cruiser sets out on a mission to prove that time travel really exists by collecting artifacts from four LEGO worlds: Castle, Space, Wild West, and Aquazone. However, he is competing with the Blue Cruiser, Green Cruiser, and Brown Cruiser to be the first to succeed; he may use the Time Machine to slow them down, and optional rules state that he can take artifacts from fellow Time Cruisers. He must also avoid the Time Twister, who is seeking to steal the Time Cruisers' artifacts.[1]
