What Makes this set WOW?
No stickers (Printed Elements): The set does not contain a single sticker, and all details, such as control panels and Classic Space logos, are permanently printed. This is a huge collector's item that guarantees the perfect appearance of the model for years without the risk of the graphics peeling off.
Synchronously retractable landing gear: The model is equipped with a clever mechanism hidden in the hull that allows the lander's three legs to be retracted and extended simultaneously. This ensures a smooth transition between flight mode and exposure, which is rare in models of this scale.
Functional Ramp and Airlock: The rear section of the ship opens to create a ramp for the rover, while the interior features a sliding airlock door leading to the living quarters. Interior details, such as beds shaped for minifigures with oxygen tanks, prove the brilliant design and high playability.
Official 3-in-1 alternative models: The instructions allow you to rebuild the set into modern versions of smaller, iconic ships numbered 924 and 918. This gives you a unique opportunity to learn different techniques for building and personalizing your space fleet using the same elements.
