I have a half-page catalog where a few Blacktron I minifigs are coming in from the left with ray guns and a Battarax, • threatening a
crowd of Futuron guys and holding up a monorail.  It seems to be taking place on the top of a hill, and on the bottom are more
futuron space station sets.  In the upper right corner is that realy big Space Police I cruiser flying in.  Is this what you're
looking for?

Yeah, I think that's the one!  Thanks for looking it up.  Any chance that you
could scan the picture, or tell me what year the catalog is from?  Thanks.

It's the American version of <http://library.brickshelf.com/scans/catalogs/1989/c89eu/c89eu-15.html>
It has the same cover picture, but as far as I can tell, the other pictures are very different.  I don't know where my copy is right
now, but if I have the time, I'll scan it when I find it.  It was actually my favorite catalog.  I came across it a little bit later
after my first space sets (M:Tron) back in 1991.  Since those catalogs didn't have any dates on them, I waited years for Futuron,
Space Police, and what I thought would be Black Tron 2 to come out.

Well, you must be right about the pictures being different...the cover does look very familiar. Anyway, thanks again! If you ever scan it, you can just e-mail it to me. - Ian Lauer (20 years ago, 1-Aug-04, to lugnet.space, lugnet.general)
