Posted September 26, 200519 yr I just found this poster lieing around and I thought I'd show it to you all, its from Life on Mars, enjoy
September 26, 200519 yr Really neat posters !!!!! Seeing this make me wonder why TLC left out space themes *wacko* (apart SW of cause ;) ).
September 26, 200519 yr Mainly because LIfe On Mars wasn't the big seller they expected it to be.... and neither did the other space themes sell as well as Classic Space....Makes You wonder why they disconnected the production of Classic :| KimT
September 26, 200519 yr Some of the colours on the Life on Mars Stuff were rancid!!! But the Mechs were good, and the Human minifigs were cool. And of course, the Martians were good. BRING BACK BLACKTRON I SAY!! In fact, how about ZITRON!!! The new Lego theme!
September 27, 200519 yr That's a great idea, to bring back Blacktron.... think of all the new pieces (especially windshields) that have been created since then, and all the great stuff that could be created now in that theme. Another neat idea would be doing re-imaginings of some of the OLD Classic space sets (pre-Blacktron, even). Bring back the little multi-colored spacemen and the big blue and grey ships and bases, but update them.
September 27, 200519 yr That's a neat poster. I have the same one, but I think it's smaller, it came with the LEGO mag.
September 27, 200519 yr i love the smaller sets of life on mars a lot. the trike, for instance, was one of my first sets after my dark age and i remember i just kept staring at it for quite some time.... brilliant... the base and the excavator, on the other hand, were not good at all... i especially like the astronauts: they're nicely detailed, the visor is great and the small sets allow you to build "armies", even tho the emphasis is on meeting new species, not on killing them... i like the colors as well, except for the pink, thats not good... i wish they did have a follow-up...
September 28, 200519 yr I like the shuttle... I rebild the cargo part, so astronauts could be in there... Oh and yes i build one more... With the old MF Window ;)
September 29, 200519 yr Cool poster. Now I want one... Life on Mars wasn't my fav space theme (too un-surreal) but the 3 wheeler with shocks was an amazing build. One of the best sets in ages... God Bless, Nathan
September 29, 200519 yr My brother has had that poster since he got it but I like the back of it better with the dinosaur picture
November 5, 200519 yr This poster was put in one of the 2001 magazines, so everyone who gets the LEGO magazine has one, they just haven't pulled it out. ;)
