Mark Twain Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 I feel like the designer did a good job and that this will sit nicely next to the Saturn V rocket. That said, I think LEGO missed some opportunities with this set. 1. I get the designer base, but I would have much preferred something that harkened back to the iconic lunar baseplates of the classic space period. The lunar lander on its own is a simple functional piece of engineering . . . I'd even go so far to call it ugly as sin. What makes it iconic is the location. 2. Baseplate with flag forms the iconic scene. Really with all the new space sets coming out you'd think Lego would have at least made a plate for sale. 3. Opting to not include a moon rover was probably a mistake. Again, people want that iconic scene, more than the model itself. 4. Need a gold printed plate for the plaque, not a sticker! 5. This is an extremely hard model to design, and I think the dude did an overall solid job, but too many Black elements on the base of the model makes it look like they avoided creating elements with specific colors to save money. Basically, baseplate. Me want a baseplate. Quote
oneknightr Posted May 31, 2019 Posted May 31, 2019 I agree MT, that plaque really should have been a printed piece. I like the footprints on the moon's surface detail. Simple but effective. Quote

So in about five years we should see a UCS Lunar Rover. lol 2 Quote
