Surveillance Scooter, 1995. Compact flyer with poseable thrusters and an astronaut. Pretty unremarkable.

Mojave time
The .1 release means it is finally time to install Mojave on my main Mac (iMac). Dark mode everything!
Space 1994 Roundup
These are the 8 LEGO Space sets from 1994 (2 Ice Planet + 5 Spyrius + 1 Unitron). What will 1995 bring?
Space Monorails 1987-94
Space Monorails 1987-94. LEGO only ever released 3 monorail sets, 2 of which were space-themed: Futuron’s Monorail Transport System from 1987 and Unitron’s Monorail Transport Base from 1994. The second set added switches, enabling more complex track layouts.
Monorail Transport Base
Monorail Transport Base, 1994. New theme Unitron starts off big with an electric cogwheel monorail space base. The train has 2 detachable pods that can be offloaded and even placed on a rover. Features 2 bases, 3 levels of track, and a secret comms center for a Spyrius spy robot.
LEGO Monorail ftw!
Oh sure, the new Mac mini’s and iPad Pro’s are sweet, but what about a LEGO Space monorail?
BURP’s
Lunar Launch Site was the first LEGO Space set to use BURP’s.*
* Big Ugly Rock Pieces
Space bases 1987-94

Lunar Launch Site hidden missile
Lunar Launch Site (as per its name) features a missile launch platform inside a rock formation to keep it hidden from prying eyes. (I think the back half is supposed to flop open, but it needed a helping hand.)
Lunar Launch Site pit trap
Lunar Launch Site features a pit trap mechanism just in case someone comes along poking their nose where it doesn’t belong.
