Well, we always thought that the yellow Classic Space guys were pretty tough,
going out into space with nothing but a helmet, some air tanks, and a tattoo
of the LEGO Space Force symbol on their chest...
By the way, the conveyance that Queen Cleo uses to get around is called a palanquin.
From www.m-w.com:
Main Entry: pa·lan·quin
Pronunciation: "pa-l&n-'kEn, -'kwin, -'kin, 'pa-l&n-"; p&-'la[ng]-kw&n
Function: noun
Etymology: Portuguese palanquim, from Malay or Javanese pelangki, of
Indo-Aryan
origin; akin to Bengali pAlanka bed
Date: 1588
: a conveyance formerly used especially in eastern Asia usually for one person
that consists of an enclosed litter borne on the shoulders of men by means
of poles
Hope that helps!
