I think it's just an "early arrival" of 1979 sets at the end of 1978,
just as all the USians are very familiar with (we still don't have any

That's what all my 1979 catalogs say, too -- and there's no mention of the
Space sets in my 1978 catalogs either...  But there definitely were at least
2 or 3 "waves" of releases -- one full release for 1979 and one mini release

instructions shows only those three sets initially -- those were the first
release wave in the U.S.
