Hi y'all...

Thumbing through the new fall catalog (just got here today), I stumbled across
a close-up pic of the rocket from <set:6456> (this is on page 45).

Well, there's a floating astronaut (freeing the satellite I guess) and the
face seems to have red lips and diamond-shaped eyes, plus a few bangs... which
automatically makes it a "she" in the lego minifig world, right? ;-)

Can anyone confirm this? Is this a female astronaut? If so, awesome! (One
small step for woman... <grin>)
...and also, can anyone provide a better picture of the face? Her (?) face is
slightly hidden behind that helmet.

Thanks!

This is another example of TLC puting the star female minifigure in only the
largest set.  It happened in Arctic.  It happened in Knights Kingdom.  And it
will happen again.  I really wish I could get this figure in the Value Pack,
which is has two astronauts.  I wouldn't hate the male astronaut if I didn't
already have his face from Space Police, Aquanauts, and Exploriens.  Enough!  I
think he was in Launch Command too!

(...) Nope. The Launch Command astronauts had the same face as the technicians from the same theme. Still a microphone head, but not all spacey looking like the Spaceport version. Just the "eyebrows edition" smiley face with a little headset added. (...) (24 years ago, 17-Nov-00, to lugnet.town, lugnet.space, lugnet.build.minifigs)
