(...) Yeah, but conceptually, they're very space-like. I'd also consider putting the Aquazone stuff under space too. (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground)

(...) Oh, definitely! :) Although I'm not as pleased with RR as I'd like to be, I do find myself (a die-heard Space head since 1978) wanting to collect AZ and RR as well -- for their "space-like" futurism and beauty and cool elements for building (...)

(...) *grin* See, we can solve that simply by calling all those things "space". (25 years ago, 4-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground)

(...) Yes; see my other message. But the term "space" is such a catchphrase for lego folks... (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground)

(...) Yeah, and space (lowercase 's') can include Star Wars, but sci-fi can't, according to those in the know about the difference between sci-fi and fantasy... B-) <duck> --Todd (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.loc.uk, lugnet.space, lugnet.underground, lugnet.starwars)

(...) Actually, Star Wars belongs square in the middle of that thing known as Sci-Fi ("skiffy" I've heard it pronounced). It's "hard science fiction" that SW doesn't fit into. Although the SW technology is a bit closer to HSF than Star Trek's. Not (...) (25 years ago, 5-Oct-99, to lugnet.space, lugnet.starwars)

(...) Actually, remembering from my days of higher activity in F&SF fandom, Star Wars would fit in Sci-Fi, however, Isaac Asimov would be considered an SF author, not a Sci-Fi author...

I feel that Rock Raiders is a space theme also because it remind me of the movie called "Armageddon". Don't you agree?
