    More @HomerTaco
    The vehicles are pretty basic - maybe a dozen bricks a piece. But they keep in line with the original space sets so that's kinda nice (I remember playing with my brothers Legos when he wasn't looking and he had a lot of the original space sets)
    The little robot guy is pretty cool - wish he was on wheels though
    I just wanted to have the 4 space minifigs.

    I always thought LEGO could grow their profit margin exponentially if they started making military sets. P-51D would be an obvious choice to begin with.

    Some other companies have jumped in to fill the void....pretty pricy though.
    They have a P-51

    And an SBD Dauntless. Would have loved to get this for my dad. My Grandpa worked on Dauntless's during WWII, dad loves the plane

    They're actual Lego bricks. He designs and assembled the sets second-hand with new/like-new bricks, which also explains the high prices. One of my friends has bought a few Brickmania sets, and while they are really cool I just can't get past the sticker shock.

    the price is what turned me off too. pretty cool sets though, lots of detail and planning went into them.

    More improvements/mods. I'm not a fan of the pink guys. They are ok but wish Lego had given us red first.
