Not really, I checked em out cause they're kinda kool. Really they're just overly cumbsy... The cost of em is a bit much for them too. Maybe you could make a lego case, and have your little lego robotic thing guard it!

I know there is a full-Lego case on the Pimprig Galleries, but the closest to that here is a Rad-Box for a heatercore, It was made but our own Slow'Puter... Even though it isn't slow.. lol
