Because of a recent dispute with Tommy Long about Legos, my appreciation of Legos has been renewed. So I got a few old sets out and ordered a few replacement pieces from Bricklink and built some of the very cool old school Classic Space Lego sets my brother and I had as a kid.

This is a custom design. I think my brother built it.

These two shots are from the Legoland 6927 All Terrain Vehicle set.

Here’s a shot of the Legoland 6970 Beta-1 Command Base. I was only missing one or two insignificant pieces. I still had the flag and the large printed brick you see here.

Yes, there are Hessians in Space.

    And maybe Oechsner’s one too.

  2. Thanks! – I’ve been to Peter Reid’s Flickr stream before. His stuff is AWESOME!

    I hope this means you’ll be building again. Your artwork tells me you’re pretty creative.

    This is a really good set. I own it. Probably my father bought it while i’m 1~2 years old:) I have some unattached parts. Could you take some detail pics. So i can rebuilt my set from your pics. Thanks.

  5. Hey Burak, I dont have time at the moment to take more photos, but you can see the instructions for the set here : http://peeron.com/cgi-bin/invcgis/scans/6970-1?ct=1
