Nope, it has wheels like the Surface explorer

Hmm..it's not that one. I did check bricklink and a couple of similar sites but haven't found it..will keep looking...

First of all..I'm new here and I did not see a specific forum for Vintage or Space lego sets, so I'm posting in here but please move it if needed. During the early to mid 1980s, my parents bought me a space Lego set having a lunar-ish vehicle that has either 6 or 8 extended arms (3 or 4 on each side). Because of the timeframe, i can assume it's part of the Classic Space collection but over the past few days of googling, i cannot find a single image of it anywhere. I even looked at images in the lego catalogs from 1979 to 1987 and could not find this vehicle. The closest one would be the 6880 Surface Explorer but that only has 2 arms (front and back). The vehicle I had has the same gray tones but is slightly more bulky than the surface explorer. Does anyone here remember, know or have the item im describing? Before you say that I'm probably crazy and that it doesn't exist, let me tell you that about 1 year ago, i did see it on ebay. I even remember having a brief nostalgic moment when i saw it, and i noted the name and lego number for it as well. But i totally forgot about it until now. Unfortunately i forgot the name and number for it as well. I hope someone here knows the item I'm trying to look for. (And also why it doesn't appear in any Lego catalog?!)
