I would have to agree that the Insectoids are truly (in my humble opinion) NOT
A REAL SPACE THEME!!!

UFO although totally differently sculpted (I'm still a classical type of guy)
and not too much to mt liking....is still a true Space theme!!  (I didn't much
like Robo Force either but they are Space to me)   just not insectoids   and

space but a subset of Town...  mostly because it is current day and Earth
Based... (though cool!!)

as Forrest Gump would Say...
"That's all I have to say about that."

You consider Exploriens to be the last "true" space theme?

Why is that?  Is it because the UFO and Insectoid sets come
with different looking (alien) helmets?  Or something else about
the elements included in the later sets?

Followups set to take the discussion out of dear-lego to general.
