One of these Galaxy Explorers is from a set.  The other I made using my own
parts (Thanks Bricklink!).

Which is the actual set?

personally, I think it's the one on the right due to the solid stud cones,
but I could be wrong as I've never owed this set.

I would also suggest that the directional thrusters on the left model
aren't canonical to the 928, while the 1x2plates with handles on the left
model are closer to the original.  Likewise the yellow antenna on the rear
of the left model seems out of place.
Just speculating...

That's 'cause he has one of my fav. sets - the M-Tron 'Big Wheels' behind
the two Galaxy Exploreres...


It was the cones that did it for me, as well as the print of the planet on
the front blue 1x3x6 slope.  The planet is smaller on later prints (after
classic space)  It could be the angle but one of them looks like it only has
2 rocket thrusters on the bottom as well.

I didn't even notice the directional thrusters--good call on that one.

p.s.  I have enuf parts for 3 Galaxy Explorers after all the yard sales, and
printed off instructions--they are cool lookin' ships :)
