Lego RoboRiders (stylized as LEGO RoboRiders) was a short-lived Lego theme launched in 2000, following the Throwbots/Slizers, and preceding Bionicle.
A total of eleven sets were released, seven official sets and four promotional sets were released as part of the theme. Sponsored drinks cans, when exposed to cold temperatures, would reveal codes used to play an online game. RoboRiders is the last line of action toys created in the Lego Technic line before Bionicle.
The Power Lego toy figure resembles a yellow motorcycle. The features present on it include a crane, two plasma cannons that fire two small red LEGO pieces, and a wheel launcher. Both the toy and its corresponding realm are themed off of toxic waste, Power's realm resembling a post-apocalyptic city.
Frost's Lego toy figure resembles a white and grey motorcycle. It also features a wheel launcher and ice launchers that fire poles made out of translucent blue plastic. The toy is themed after ice. Frost's realm is depicted as an arctic tundra with ice-themed obstacles and creatures.

Dust, which is another Lego toy figure, searches for the enemies in the much-dreaded Desert-Realm within the theme of the product line. There are howling sandstorms that are very difficult to navigate through, the terrain is very tough to drive in, and there is always a danger of drowning in quicksand or monster sandstorms. Dust's main enemies are the sand pits. Dust is armed with two spears, and is also armed with a wheel launcher. His colors are tan and grey.
The Boss RoboRider Lego toy figure is depicted as an orange motorcycle. The toy's place in the fictional storyline is unknown. It was the final release for the RoboRiders toyline.
