I have fond memories of that set as well. Much like you I used every
surface in the house as an area to explore. It's one of the few space sets
I remember as a set, as opposed to MOCs. That and the 6390 Space Supply
Station. Now that I'm a castle/pirate/adventurers-head I don't have many
space sets or parts. I recently traded a 6390 and some other space sets for
a BSB, and there's part of me that wishes I had kept the Space Supply
Station. I have most of a second, but it's not complete...yet. :-)
