Super Nova II, 1991. Small spaceship with four movable wings, rear cargo box, and a canopy that opens. The side rails are formed by a horse hitch piece usually seen in horse-drawn carts from Castle sets.

Large ground vehicles 1982-90
Grid Trekkor, 1991. Small Blacktron II rover with ballon tires and an astronaut in a new jet pack part. That whip antenna dwarfs the car.
In 1991 Blacktron was rebooted as Blacktron: Future Generation. I’m not a fan of the minifg redesign. (I do like the new black landing plates though.)
Two-Pilot Craft, 1991. This small 2-seat flyer is pretty forgettable. Sold as part of the same Five Set Bonus Pack.
Mobile Satellite Up-Link, 1991. This small articulated vehicle was the final M:Tron set. It has space in the rear to hold a small crate, but you’d need to borrow one from another set. Sold as part of a Five Set Bonus Pack.
That’s it for the 8 space sets from 1990 (1 Blacktron + 7 M:Tron). Next up: 1991 and Blacktron gets a reboot.
These are the 7 sets of M:Tron from 1990.
I like these backpacks that one of the crates holds.
Mega Core Magnetizer used some big ass tires! These were the largest tires ever used in LEGO Space.
