This idea is fantastic. I think people will be surprised at how much Space there really is. I can't wait to see it (in photos . . . I can't go to PDX). (18 years ago, 11-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

This year at BrickFest in Portland we will be doing something a little different. We will attempt to display every single Space set, 1979-1999, Classic through Insectoids, in one giant and beautiful layout. So we need you to bring a few of your (...)

This is what can happen when a cajun Blacktron operative acquires a space scooter (set 885), and he beefs it up. He's ready to drop in for Mardi Gras and binge on all those wonderful beignets, crawfish et tu fe and really stiff drinks. -best, Wolf (...) (18 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX) !

(...) 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)

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)

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)
