What is it?
This is a spaceship for long range interstellar trips. The style is a mix of old and new - it has much of the Classic Space colour scheme with the look of the current run of Lego City Space. Think of it as a missing link between the Lego City Interstellar Spaceship that just came out and the Galaxy Explorer.
Its features include:
- Retractable landing gear.
- Access to all areas of the ship through the top.
- An airlock to the crew quarters and cockpit area.
- A ramp leading to the airlock.
- Four Lego City Space minifigs with older fashioned helmets and air tanks.
- A buggy and orange spaceman (at my daughter's request).
The airlock is adapted from the new Galaxy Explorer. The landing gear is inspired by it, but I did not look at the instructions for building them while I designed it (which I did do for the airlock). I have also tried to keep the building techniques on the easier side so that children won't have trouble building it.
Why do you believe this would make a great Lego Set?
It's a good spaceship with a lot of play value for kids. With a piece count of 647, it should still be affordable for parents. In addition, parts were checked against the inventory at Pick-a-Brick, which means that Lego can make this from existing inventory.
