 | | Where does the Life on Mars theme fit in to the LEGO universe? —Jesse Alan Long
|
| | | This may sound like a weird question but, if Life on Mars is indeed a LEGO Space theme, why is it not any place in LEGO Space? Even a link would be nice, such as one to Star Wars. If Life on Mars does not fit into LEGO space, where does it fit into (...) (22 years ago, 16-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)

I'm guessing their were early UFO colonies. Just a theory there. (...) Good question. My (...) (22 years ago, 16-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
