I think this too. I'm an original space fan and the thought of them walking
around with big chunky helmuts disgusts me (not as much as Jack Stone, though!)
Also re: wheels - Many of the classic space and Blacktron sets came with
those large round space-tyres that fit on the 2x2 metal axle plate. These
would have to be included in any space 'legend' set. Maybe a way could be
found to make them compatible with the new 2x2 wheel clip-on plate.
Finally, I accept that new molds are expensive. But just think - how many
new molds has LEGO made for the Harry Potter series alone (not to mention
Belville)! It makes me shudder.
