 | | Re: New Space Sets!
|
| (...) Yeah, I definitely agree with the opinion that a return to exploration-based space sets would be cool. Should have been something like "Mars Mission 2025", pehaps with a modular interplanetary vessel (big set), maybe some robot support (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| (...) The dropship looks good, I'll need to reserve final judgment on the rest until seeing better pictures. As others have said, I'd hoped for a more "exploration" based theme, rather than more space-fantasy conflict. But at least it's space. Kelly (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| I'm feeling a bit underwhelmed, personally. I loved the classic Space sets way back, of course, and was quite fond of the NASA/Discovery line a few years ago. I'd really like to see some Space sets with a more realistic near-future space exploration (...) (18 years ago, 7-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)
| | | | | Re: New Space Sets!
|
| Indeed! Hard to tell from these pictures but it looks like most of the sets contain very little of the new colors, which makes me VERY happy! Giant wheels in orange?! SWEET. The new 1/4 saucer bricks are intriguing as well. Seems that the Bionicle (...) (18 years ago, 7-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

|
| (...) I was hoping for an updated Galaxy Explorer in red, and a gatling-armed Mobile Lab with a trans-red windshiled, but these Mars sets do look interesting. Some of them are very alien, which I think is cool. That there's a battle going on works (...) (18 years ago, 7-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

| | | | | Re: Classic Space Rocket Train

| (...) Tony, thanks much for the nice words, and thanks much for the MOC Highlight. That was an excellent surprise. Long wheelbase: Good eye! I've only tried the passenger car on curves via pushing the train by hand, and it seems to do ok. It (...) (18 years ago, 5-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Classic Space Rocket Train
|
| (...) I love it! Very classic. I wonder, though- the passenger car looks like it has an awkwardly-long wheelbase for a 2-axle car. Does it bind in curves? Anyway, this looks like it would be at home on a moonbase layout. And by your server domain, (...) (18 years ago, 5-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Glad you like the train! Yeah, I'm still a bit iffy on the little wings, especially those on the passenger car. For the engine--the wings are there largely to have the rockets clear the trailing rail cars. Of course, I could make the train a (...) (18 years ago, 4-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)

| (...) Jordan, Thanks much for the kind words. Yes, I think it would be fun to do an alternate-history 1980s Lego catalog, with a number of space sets that could have been... A larger Space layout would be fun, too... I'm already beginning to picture (...) (18 years ago, 4-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Classic Space Rocket Train
|
| (...) Way cool. I especially like the 80's LEGO catalog like rendering of the pictures. As for the model, I like the color and styling, but I'd lose the stubby wing tips. They just don't sit well with me since I don't think trains ought to have (...) (18 years ago, 4-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)
| | | | | Re: Classic Space Rocket Train
|
| (...) Wolf, I'm greatly impressed with your rocket train. With the backgrounds you've added, the images look like they might as well be out of an early 80s LEGO catalog. The style of building closely matches that of the classic Space era. I'd love (...) (18 years ago, 4-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, lugnet.trains, FTX)
