The topic is: what makes a LEGO Legend a legend? Or, more precisely, if we
cannot bring back a set precisely as it was (or pretty darn close), can it
still qualify as a Legend?

Some specifics would help…
If your alluding specifically to Space sets predating 1980 then we could
easily determine which particular sets would likely be chosen for the 2002
up-coming Legends line. With this finite list and our resources we would
target the likely sets and propose possible alternatives for out-dated or
inferior parts.  (e.g. Old Space helmets in set # ‘497 Galaxy Explorer’ and
other various details involved in updating it to be initiated into the
Legends line.                 http://guide.lugnet.com/set/497)

Therefore, all we need is a certain direction to provide qualitative
responses. Your generalized statement of ‘what’s acceptable and what’s not’
is far too grand in scope.    (Although I do appreciate you situation, and
how you don’t want to spoil any surprises.)

So, just maybe cough in a particular direction and we’ll do our best to
facilitate!

Just replace it with a straight antenna (use one like the two on top of (...) (23 years ago, 24-Oct-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
