There are similar parts that only have one stud and there is one Space
Police II space craft that has a single stud version of that rocket piece
and that piece resembles the cylindrical single stud brick but it has four
fins on the side of the brick. I have seen those pieces for sale but the
piece that I want is two bricks high and is also two studs wide by two studs
long and it also has the fins similar to the Space Police II set #1890.
(The pieces that I was mentioning are the thrusters on each side of the
space craft.) This set also has another number but I do not know what that
number is in my mind. I have been to BrickBay but no person in BrickBay,
odd as this may sound to you, has these parts for sale and even stranger
still is that the LDraw program does not contain these rocket pieces. The
Space logo is the word "Space" in computer letters and it has some planets
and stars in the background. The Ice Planet 2002 logo has ice on the top
half of the planet and the Alpha Team has a grid view of the world. I am
somewhat unsure of what your answer is to my third question, Kyle, but are
you saying that I am right in saying that Legoland Space and
Futuron/Futureworld are the same Lego set? I am simply wanting to know what
your answer was to my question because you said, "Hmm, this is kind of a
hard one. I consider it Classic Space and Futuron. That is pretty much the
Lugnet standard. As far as the logo, I think that it is the general logo
for Lego Space, not a (logo) for any certain sub-theme. Variations of it
can be found on the Ice Planet (2002) and Alpha Team (although [the latter
is] not really [considered a part of the Lego] Space) themes."
