I bought this set a few months ago and it's one of gret classic space sets.
Well at least in my opinion :-P
The set has 2 minifigs and both are packing jet packs *wub*
The Mobile Command Trailer is made in a great colour scheme (blue and some light gray).
It has that space look to it - the wheels for example adds a ATV feeling *y*
Also the tools added and the airtanks adds some playability to a set this small.
Definately a high ranker in the classic space collection. I wish I'd gotten this as a child :-/
Man it would have been awesome if LEGO had copied this or another great space theme instead of MARS! :-X :-P ;-)
The verdict
Playability 7/10 Could have added more than tools and ATV design
Figs 10/10 Classic Space with Jet Packs - need I say more? *y* *y* *y*
Design 8/10 The nose cone thingy doesn't really suit the design IMO
Colour scheme 8/10 The designer could have added more light gray or maybe left it entirely blue
All in all: 8.25/10 *y*

Nice work Morten.
I like how You've MOD'ed the turret and the blaster shots and flames.
Lots of movement in the MOC. = the rebel putting out flames, snowspeeder pilots running like hell, blaster shots and so on... I like that *y*

Well actually I could use 7712 Supernova and the 7714 Golden thingy....just in case any eventeers could get their hands on either (or both) for me! Also I've got a brand new still in the box ARC fighter for sale.

It doesn't have the "real" trans clear yellow colour either.
It's definately a rip-off either by megablocks or one of those Chinese copy-factories.

Arrrrgh! Damnation for all LEGO designers *wacko*
This is AWESOME... must have...
This is great set...the price is quite hefty thought.
No matter I'm a collector and this IS going into my colletion one way or the other...

One word: STUPID
I'd love a gold C3PO, but this is plain silly.
As if the price for the new 5195 bricks huge millenium falcon isn't enough to make one seasick :-X

Someone please move this to "community" or just somewhere where this kind of thing belongs.
Nice squid though!
Can't see why it should be the vampire squid from hell....IMO it's just a big deep water squid :-/

Ahem! What family?! I have no recolletion of us losing to some inferior family in Billund?
As I recall (being on the Danish FFT) we kicked every opposing team and even got saluted by the nifty looking girl overseeing the fire fighting. But I do remember the Belgian French whatever team getting their arses kicked even by the blindfolded team. It might have had something to do with the fact that they rammed the firefighter truck into the building they were supposed to hose with water and thus send two of the team's members flying through the air.
But hey that might just be my bad memory. >:-) *n*
