Maybe I'm just a hopeless optimist (wait, isn't that contradictory?), but the "Classic" spaceman is so very classic that I think it would find a wide audience even among those who don't collect (...)

| | | | | (...) I still don't understand the whole big deal with the old-style helmets. How many new molds has Lego made in the last copule of years with Bionicle, HP, Starwars, JS, Belville etc etc... how much would it hurt for them to make ONE to re-release (...)

| | | | | | (...) I think it's more that they don't want to invest in a new mold--which has been fairly well established as being a lengthy and costly process-- for a relatively limited-circulation (yes, limited!) item. But as far as I know it's the only part (...) (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

| | | | | | Lindsay, (...) Indeed. I don't know if they have the old style mold or not. Is the Cyprus Tree mold new or the original? DO they have multiples of molds of various parts? (...) Right. Scott S. -- (23 years ago, 27-Mar-02, to lugnet.dear-lego)

I guess I was pretty good for them, most of mine are still together. : ) Anyway, we shall see what happens with the space line. If they don't want to do Classic Space, (...)

I'm sure we've had this discussion before, and as with most things I'm probably in the minority, but for me those thin helmets were/are as integral to classic space as the planet insignia or the indomitable smiley faces.
