Spyrius Collection

I spent the weekend building up my complete Spyrius collection!

I absolutely love this theme - the them of flying saucers and robots is just fantastic and I love the color scheme.

A great theme within Space! 

I see you got even the 1785 Crater Critters.

Thanks @sander1992! Yes - I absolutely had to include 1785! To me, it absolutely belongs as a Spyrius/Unitron set. The color scheme and inclusion of the Spyrius title seal the deal for me. Plus, it was listed alongside the other Spyrius sets in the 1995 Holiday Shop @ Home catalog (see page 35 - https://images.brickset.com/library/view/?f=catalogues/c95sahHoliday).

Excellent!

Spyrius and Unitron were the final 2 space themes that I bought sets from as a child.  I remember building the Saucer Scout, Recon Robot, and Saucer Centurion.  The minifigures were my favorite, especially the Spyrius Droid (aka Major Kartofski).

There are so many cool prints too.  Minifigure torsos have a "cyborg" look to them, and the various tiles/panels representing computers still hold up well today.
