I -almost- made sub-categories of the so-called "classic" Space in the
Fibblesnork LEGO Guide but was talked out of it (I think by Steve Bliss) by
being shown many examples of boundary-straddling sets. But the FLG has
hard-line boundaries, so even if it didn't make sense there, it doesn't have
to be that way anymore... With fuzzy boundaries, we can organize classic
Space by color scheme/components or by neo-faction or whatever. Probably
about half of the classic Space sets fall into clear categories, but the
other half are really tough to peg. I don't have any clear thoughts/
opinions/suggestions yet on how things might/oughtta be organized, but I'm
way gung-ho, yes, on making a possibility. :)
