Mars Mission
Some of those look awesome, some look like awesome parts packs. I would guess all of those are not finalized prototypes with the possible exception of 7699 MT-101 Armored Drilling Unit. That one actually has the peice count on the box (442 peices) while the rest do not. If some of the newer sets and piece counts are anything to go by that set might be $40-$45 dollars. That would rock. The new logo is similar to the classic space logo which is good.

Super Spacey.

I'd really like to see some Space sets with a more realistic near-future space exploration (...) (17 years ago, 7-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)

(...) Looks like a rehash of the Life On Mars sets. How disappointing. :-( Jeff (17 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 (17 years ago, 8-Jan-07, to lugnet.space, FTX)
