though it might be difficult for LEGO direct to get the mold to produce the
(moonrocks) baseplate.

The baseplate would be a problem, but I think the <part:4089> "Slope Brick 33 3
x 2 Inverted Hollow with Towball" would be even worse. Perhaps they could use
<part:4626> as a replacement?

The hinge (<part:3639>/<part:3640>) used in one of the vehicles couls also be
problematic. Those parts did appear in 1999 in <set:6455>, but perhaps they
were just using up those molds?

Lots of other parts would have to be substituted of course, such as the minifig
helmets and the <part:4081a> "Plate 1 x 1 with Clip Light" which has changed in
subtle ways (now <part:4081b>) since then.
