  1. Boy, do I hear you there. Space always had colored canopies. This clear stuff is just weird. Or even worse they could use transparent orange like in Mars Mission. Orange is just not a heroic color, in my opinion.
  2. I think it's a misinterpretation of something Stafford said on Reddit. I remember him talking about designing new sets, but I'm pretty sure he didn't mention Space.
  3. Yeah, they need to just do it. It's now or never. There's a lot of momentum behind it, with Benny & his Spaceship, the Exo Suit, the Lego Space Book, and the Classic Spaceman with Robot. They're never going to have this much momentum ever again for a (Neo) Classic Space relaunch. It's really this simple: They release a space theme every few years. Would it really hurt them to make the sets blue & grey with yellow windscreens and include the Classic Space symbol? No, it wouldn't. It would be stupid not to.
  4. I'm hoping after the success of Benny and the Exo-Suit that Lego is scrambling to put together a wave of classic space sets, but they just haven't gotten it ready yet.
  5. And yet you cruelly posted to this thread, getting my hopes up. I feel your pain though.
  6. This totally reminds me of a giant Gobot! Love it.
  7. An old pic of the Space Miner had a Classic Space with Drill print on the shoulder. I wonder if it's still going to have that print?
  8. I'm hoping for a Lamborghini Countach if this theme sticks around. That would be an instant buy from me.
  9. Okay, the Ice Planet one is fantastic. I think the trans red slopes that make up the chain saw should technically face the same way all the way around.
  10. Thanks guys! I thought the dish might be controversial, but people seem to like it. The dish on the shoulder idea was inspired by this Gall Force mech which I really love:
  11. Everything here is excellent. I also love the backgrounds with the grids. That just screams "Sci-Fi" to me. Maybe it's an 80's thing? But I love it. Lego needs to bring that back.
  12. I like how the cockpit is in the butt.
  13. Thanks m0dulo! I tried to fix the little bits there that were falling apart, but then I realized they didn't look that cool anyway, IMO, so I replaced them with shielding.
  14. I wanted the bad guy ship windscreen to be in yellow of course. Because Blacktron. (And because Classic Space MOCS).
  15. I wasn't planning on modding mine but it was impossible to resist.
  16. I hope the new mold is the same as the old one, unlike the crappy new Space Gun/Torch mold (Bricklink part 86208) which isn't nearly as cool as the old Space Gun/Torch (3959).
  17. Your first Part I - III links are broken. I wouldn't mind checking those out.
  18. I'm having a hard time believing there won't be a classic space reboot of some sort. I feel like we are getting little clues. - We have the non-cracked old helmet on Benny on the front of the Spaceship Spaceship Spaceship box. Did they remake the old helmet without the crack? Is this a tease? - We have the classic white spaceman and robot reward set. - There's a little mini classic space ship in the new Christmas set. I'm telling you man. I think something is up.
  19. SHIPPED! If you had an estimate of August 15th like I did, yours might be on it's way to you already!
  20. Feeble greebles. Niiice.
  21. I think this is Lego's excuse for cheaping out. I don't think any kid would choose stickers over printed parts.
  22. There is a lot of supporting evidence for this theory I think! :)
  23. Really? You think if kids were given the choice between printed pieces and stickers, kids would choose stickers? Do you have any evidence of this? That would be amazing!
  24. I support this but I worry that it's too similar to Benny's SSS to be selected. But if it does get all the votes it should tell Lego something -- bring back space!
  25. I ordered but they were already out of stock. Ships August 15, hopefully.
