Optimax X Posted February 14, 2007 Posted February 14, 2007 Ah, the more a see these pictures the more i want them! That mother ship thing looks good, i may get that. At first i thought this was a mock up of LOM (life on mars) and that the sets were to expensive, but with some starting at 3.99 it's anything but that. Lovin' this theme but i hope there won't be to much of a gimicky story line. More pictures from mars mission from the toyfair. Clear pictures of those aliens as well. Scroll down abit. Quote
Brainbox Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 I quite like these. The aliens look a bit odd, but in a cute sort of way. That dropship looks good, as does the shuttle from the base. Not the base itself, just the shuttle. I'm also feeling a little drawn to the small MX-11 fighter. I don't know, for some reason it just gets a *y* . I'm definately getting one, if not a few. Am I the only one who sees a trace of Captain Scarlet here? It just springs to mind when I see the sets. And if anyone's interested, Mars' moons are Phobos and Deimos. Quote
dr01d3k4 Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Hi they all look awesome, but with all the new, great sets coming out this year, i don't what to get, star wars, spongebob (if it's availible in england then), creator. technic, exo-force, mars mission or city, ppppppppplllllllllllllllllleeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaassssssssssseeeeeee hhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeelllllllllllppppppp! what theme/ set should i get? Does anyone part count, price or release date? if so, please post as some look exspensive like the armoured drilling unit so i better start saving. Quote
xenologer Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 what theme/ set should i get? Get Mars Mission and City because both represent a return towards classical themes, and they need your support. Also get the AquaRaiders Shipwreck set, for the same reason. Pretty sure that they designed that set as a 'test' to see if oldstyle divers could survive vs the other new action-oriented AquarRaiders. Quote
Optimax X Posted February 16, 2007 Posted February 16, 2007 Yes, i also like that small fighter, it's cheap, good pieces and small, so i'll probably pick it up. Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted February 17, 2007 Posted February 17, 2007 These sets are cool. Great use of orange peices. I like most of the sets, so I will buy at least one. Why must LEGO make me spend too much money? -ZotS Quote

Why must LEGO make me spend too much money?-ZotS I think that's what everybody is thinking right now. :-D Anyway, as i say, it's great to have a space them back again, i hope it carries into 08 at least.

Zaktan of the Shadows Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Yes, lets hope. Its shaping up to be a great line! -ZotS Quote
Optimax X Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 Indeed, i have all ready had some great ideas for spcae MOCs for when these sets come out*y* Mars Mission ON! :-) Quote
snefroe Posted February 18, 2007 Posted February 18, 2007 well actually i do wonder when they're supposed to come out. they're not announced in the current catalog, so i'm guessing zat best in September or so... Quote
Lord Admiral Helden Ravensdorn Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 So, am I the only still thinking along the lines of these being orange/white/green/black garbage...? Quote
Darkness Falls Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 So, am I the only still thinking along the lines of these being orange/white/green/black garbage...? I guess so. Quote
Starwars4J Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 Not in my eyes. Only three things catch my interest. The human drilling machine, the cheap human fighter, and the human dropship (pft, xenoism...) Quote
Zaktan of the Shadows Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 Lord Admiral Helden Ravensdorn, it looks like it. Do the jellybean aliens even move? -ZotS Quote
Brainbox Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 they're not announced in the current catalog, so i'm guessing zat best in September or so... I hope not. I'd much rather they came out in July. Although, maybe September is a better idea considering everything else I'll just have to buy :-| . And no, I don't think the aliens move. They look like one solid piece. Quote
Optimax X Posted February 19, 2007 Posted February 19, 2007 Does it not say on the sites where we have seen the pictures? I think we have, september rings a bell for the realise date, but i'd hope they'd come out july/august. Quote
xenologer Posted February 20, 2007 Posted February 20, 2007 I thought that in some of the ToyFair pics there were little namecards next to the models that listed August as the release date...go check that other thread... Quote

Indeed- that's what i thought, i'll check the picture now. All thouch unclear this picture seems to say august/september/december prolly desided on where you live. The picture is this one:Link Quote
Brainbox Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 All thouch unclear this picture seems to say august/september/december prolly desided on where you live. The picture is this one:Link December?! I hope not. Actually, this one says August and you can just see it on this one as well. In fact it says August at the bottom of all the cards. What it does say is 'TV Aug/Sep/Nov/Dec' (or whatever), so maybe thats when the adverts are coming out. Quote
Optimax X Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Yeah- i wondered why it said "t.v" i wonder if they are planning a t.v series? X-D I sincerly hope august, then i can get them in time for my birthday or with my birthday money! :-) Quote
Brainbox Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 It could be some of those mini-episodes like the Exo-Force ones. Quote
Optimax X Posted February 21, 2007 Posted February 21, 2007 Hmmm, maybe. It seems like they are coming out in august- that's a relief! These sets look so good, i'm so excited about them. Ohh, it's ages till august! :'-( Quote
Brainbox Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Ohh, it's ages till august! :'-( I know. I've got to get through my GCSEs before I can get any of these. I'm sure I can manage though. Quote
Optimax X Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Well my mum has said if i do good in my exams, i can get new lego when it comes out. Quote
Brainbox Posted February 22, 2007 Posted February 22, 2007 Well my mum has said if i do good in my exams, i can get new lego when it comes out. Hmm... could work. Probably won't. But I may get some money though. I could always put that towards this or Batman. Quote
