| abstract | - Speedorz are vehicles used by the inhabitants of Chima in tournaments or battles. They are a key element of the Legends of Chima theme, and appear in many sets as part of an action game. A person wishing to play with the Speedor holds the Speedor in one hand and the Ripcord in the other. Then they insert the ripcord in a space in between the wheel and the frame and soon afterwards pull it out as hard as they can, causing the wheel to spin. They then let go of the Speedor, which proceeds to travel speedily forwards. Often, the object of the game being played will involve challenges including having the Speedor hit a certain target to have an orb of Chi or another object fall down or having it dodge a variety of obstacles. Sets such as 70115 Ultimate Tournament would have it appear that there is some aspect of the game involving two Speedorz battling, but further information on this aspect of the game is yet to be released. Trading cards are also used when playing to give one's character an advantage in battle. The sets vary in size; the smaller sets, of which there are currently seven, generally consist of one modified Speedor, some cards, a few weapons, some Chi, and some obstacles or challenges (such as boulders to knock down or "flying" targets to hit), while larger sets, of which there are currently three, generally consist of two Speedorz that may or may not be modified; a greater number of cards, weapons, and Chi; and larger obstacles, challenges, or background features. Each Speedor consists of a minimum of three items: a frame decorated in the style of the Speedor's rider, a wheel, and a ripcord. The sets all contain a minifigure, a slightly-modified Speedor with rip cord, one character card, four battle cards, two weapons, six pieces of Chi, and some sort of obstacle or challenge. 70113 CHI Battles is one of the starter sets to date, and it contains Longtooth, Wakz, two slightly-modified Speedorz with one rip cord each, ten trading cards, four weapons, and twelve pieces of Chi. It also consists of a variety of obstacles and challenges, such as two ramps, a tower from which a blue ball must be knocked down using the Speedorz and the ramps, and some spike "pylons". The other one 70114 Sky Joust is a set with Eris and Rawzom. It includes two ramps and a hazard/objective in the middle and a CHI Crystal on top of a small podium. Both figures have weapons to knock their opponents off with, hence the name of the set. 70115 Ultimate Tournament is the only known battle arena set to date, and it contains Laval, [Cragger]], two slightly-modified Speedorz with one rip cord each, four weapons, and twelve pieces of Chi. It also consists of a variety of obstacles and challenges, such as a ramp, a statue from which a blue ball must be knocked down from using the ramp and the Speedorz, some flame "pylons", and a gate decorated to look like a lion. Hitting a target suspended from the gate drops down another blue orb. 70011 Eagles' Castle, is the only known set with Speedorz. The set includes Ewald, Worriz, Lennox, two slightly-modified Speedorz with one rip cord each, five trading cards, eight weapons, and thirteen pieces of Chi. In the set, the two Speedorz launch off of ramps at a grey column, on top of which is a piece of Chi. An rod connecting the column and the main portion of the set, the "Eagles' Castle", suggest that the tipping of the pillar has some effect on the Castle, such as causing it to collapse. However, the exact details of this feature are not yet known. In Winter 2014 another starter set came out called 70140 Stinger Duel. It contains Lavertus in his ShadoWind disguise and Scolder. In the middle there is a scorpion tail with a CHI Ring attached to it so the players can battle for it. The last starter set was released in Summer 2014 is called 70156 Fire vs Ice. It includes Laval and Sir Fangar, both without armor. It also has 2 towers, one of Ice and one of Fire. The first player that has knocked down the other's tower wins.
