Oh, and does anyone know if Rock Raiders is space or town?

Rock Raiders is neither Space nor Town; it's part of Underground.

Which, if you ask me, is TLG's way of getting around the "no space sets while
under Lucasfilm contract" clause.

Think about it:  It's clearly a sci-fi theme, with the big machines and the
lasers.  It allows them to keep designing "futuristic" sets, while claiming
they aren't "space".

I'm considering Rock Raiders to be a "Fantasy Heavy Equipment" theme.  So
it appeals to kids who like construction equipment and kids who like alien
monsters.
