Vex robotics kit

Ok, well my dad wants to go 50/50 with me on the vex R/C starter bundle here, Can I have some reviews on the overall system? Sorry if this is in the wrong forum

VEX

Though VEX is a good robot the parts are to bendable and easily breaks. Can be programmed in RobotC (BEST).
You can always buy the NXT with Tetrix parts (I don’t know where but Ill find out) more expensive though. I think you should buy the VEX anyway.
Positive with VEX is the amount of outputs/inputs.
