Set 60429: Spaceship and Asteroid Discovery (2024)

This small set is rated 4+, which means no stickers and plenty of great printed parts. There’s a chunky but swooshable spaceship, a crane for lifting asteroids, a science station with computers and tools, two asteroids, two astronauts in azure (pilot) and green (science), and a happy alien that looks like space lettuce. Both the ship and the science station are powered by battery packs, this time with two cells apiece. I really like the printed slopes on the spaceship and the transparent blue printed display.
