Lunar MPV Steering
Lunar MPV has a very cool steering mechanism that was only ever used in one other space set. Bonus points for upside down building.
1621: Lunar MPV
1621-1: Lunar MPV, 1989. I quite like this bilaterally asymmetrical little truck and its robot.
1620: Astro Dart
1620-1: Astro Dart, 1989. Cute simple scooter with adjustable wings and thrusters.

6925 vs 6928
Interplanetary Rover feels like a rehash of the Uranium Search Vehicle from 1984.

6885-1: Crater Crawler, 1988. Articulated vehicle hauling a small scooter and a robot in the trailer. First black-suited Futuron astronaut. 💙🖤
