As of today, April 7th 2018, the original Space theme by LEGO hits the four Earthen decades mark. For many it was what brought us into the building block fold with their band of galactic explorers. Although the theme has not truly been continued in any official capacity outside of a few nods and promos, the classic legacy treks ever onward through the fans' creations with what is generally called as Neo Space. You can find a number of such various MOCs in the thread linked for all the classic Space teams.

Some of the happiest times of my life were building those sets!

OMG! Dat monochrome space minifig ?

 

Has anyone seen a MOC collection of monochrome spacefigs that someone has pieced together like the standard monochrome monifigs?

A little trip dow memory lane for me. Most of my early years with lego 1990's I spent playing with many of those figures. Never had the black spaceman with the early helmet
