The Alpha-1 Rocket Base is probably my all-time favorite space set because
it was the first 'modern' minifig set I got when I was 6. My previous sets
were either universal sets or sets with the old minifig torsos/legs that
were molded and didn't move (specifically set 386).

I love the A-1RB. I still have about half of the special bits from it as
near as I can tell, and the crater plate has seen much use over the last 22
years and is still going strong (if a bit dusty/dirty). :)

I, personally, would love to see just about any of the original round of
space sets from 1979 come back, though the A-1RB or Mobile Tracking Station
(452) would be my key picks. 452 is small (under the current $25 mark set by
the Guarded Inn, if such is even a consideration for a Legends release), and
it would be awesome to get more of the clear antennna/shields. Not many sets
had those as I recall.

Just my take. :)
