Meh.. I have these and I think they would look too bulky in the game, plus it requires alot more to make great

1) make them not come apart (looking at you minifig riders...)
2) working out the mount... I guess you goto glue there
3) requires buying the lego and the light kits - still gotta hotwire the light kits in
4) gotta hide and tuck up the light brick wiring - these kits use this angle hair kind of wiring that is ran where ever they can

AFAIK the wiring for the lightcycle set is all ran under the belly of the bikes.. so would have to tape and cover all that up. And the input connector isn't on the bikes themselves (no where to hide it).. so they hide it off somewhere else.

Here's an example of the wiring being 'tidy'

And the connector

This is just one of the vendor's kits out there... there are lots of competing brands in these lego lit brick sets... but they are all generally the same concept. The difference is in their bricks and usually effects mods.
