Warning this article is a speculative post designed to encourage
disscussion on new ideas (and hopefully suggest some Ideas to TLC/TLG.)

According to the advance preview catalouge ( ' Well done S@L!!:-)' ) It
would appear that the new 'Colony 2030' range will fetaure about 3 Major
sets...-That link up tyo form a base... (6 32x32 Baseplate <faints> and
saucer plates in tan!!). Amongst the smaller sets are a planetry explorer, a
shuttle and a mobile laboratory!!..

wow oh wow, i hear that the FIVE (not 3) main new colony sets (sic) will
have lots of alien flora and fauna and junglelike terrain (adventurers-ish)
with colony buildings as follows:


They said there wouldn't be regional varations and I only see 3 major sets
in my catalog :-( (Maybe it's because it's the preview one.?)

Oh well at least now I can order via my WAP Phone...
And pick it up from my local store when I pop in next...

2031 Hydroponics lab - bubble dome greenhouse, supplies food for the colony

Oh yes, some new dome parts at last....
And I am glad to see they have re-used the 'Starbase' solar panel parts..

2032 Medlab - hitech med faciltiy for analyzing alien enzymes and treating
    colonists
2033 ColonySupplyShip - landing baseplate w/ ship.  (commutes between orbital
    colony ship and ground base)
2034 ReplicationFactory - an atom-by-atom collator facility that makes all the
    clothes, hammers, etc. that the colony needs.

and last but definitely my fave:

2035 Alien Ruins - (whoohoo, saucer plates in tan) Alien Ruins w/ aliens
    frozen in sarcophagi (egypt set leftovers?) and some cool alien
    artifacts


Well maybe ther are 'Egyptian' if you belive what Dankein thought.. ;-)
(FUT lugnet.off-topic.mad-scientists...)
New Color for the BURPS though... (Tan.)
It looked like they will still be included in the catlogue shots I saw :-(
And what is that 6x6 Ring is see? 'Stargate' Lego(R)?

The Rock Crystals seem to be in some physcadelic new colors as well.

the smaller kits are as follows:

2036 Planetary Explorer - a mobile van-like modular specimen-gathering
    lab
2037 Survey Ornithopter - a robotic geographical surveying flyer

A helicopter? Way Cool...

2038 Shuttle - a small shuttle for moving intrepid colonists about

hmm, looks like the mobile lab is the same as the exporer...

;-)
