PeabodySam Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I have been forced to eat >the words I said last October when this set was announced to be the next CUUSOO (now Ideas) set... and words have never tasted sweeter. Mark Stafford has done it again. True, it's not nearly as complex as Peter Reid's original MOC, but what's important is that it beautifully recaptures the spirit and essence of the Exo-Suit. Plus, two exclusive green LEGOLAND Space astronauts and a robot turtle... what's not to like? Now, here's hoping that Adventures of Steamrod can get 8,000 votes in the next 300 days... aidenpons and Seaborgium 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jedi299 Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 I will be angry if I don't have enough money for this. It looks like the first set in years that I've been more excited for than when it was announced. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayliffe Posted July 4, 2014 Share Posted July 4, 2014 Also, according to the video the female astronaut is named "Eve." I wonder what the guy's name is...? I like to know the names of my minifigures. According to the video description, Its Pete. Fush 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have the minifigs listed as "Eve" and "Salvage Team Alpha Zero Nine Astronaut." I'd move the pages myself but I don't know how to wiki. I've edited wikis in the past but I never got the hang of it... EIDT: Never mind, I managed to do it myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lol username Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Here's a comparison of the original MOC and the set: http://brickset.com/article/11666/exclusive-exo-suits-side-by-side > aidenpons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadowblaze Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Here's a comparison of the original MOC and the set: They're very different. The set version is better, I really like how they mixed both Bionicle pieces and the ordinary pieces, in this set they seem to work together pretty well. Some of the pieces are used in an unconventional way, which I find very original and creative. I wonder if those were added in the final version by the MOC dude or by the LEGO designers. And the green space guy... the green space guy is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaborgium Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 This will probably be the first Lego set I've bought in a while. I just hope it's not too expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seaborgium Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Jamesster, do you know any estimates on the piece count? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobaFett2 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 I'm going to guess a minimum of 30 and a maximum of 40 dollars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaborgium Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 I'm going to guess a minimum of 30 and a maximum of 40 dollars. That's what I originally expected. With two minifigs however, it could be fifty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With two minifigs however, it could be fifty. Would they really add that much? It looks like it should be a 25 dollar set, piece-wise, or even a large 20 (although that perception may just be due to how many small bits there are). The extra 5-15 is for payment to the creator and general add on stuff, plus uncertainty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aidenpons Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 THEY NEED TO BE ADDED TO RR RIGHT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!! (courtesy of Yajmo) I'd guess it would be about $80 (NZD), and the piece count will be about 200... ish... maybe... probably... perhaps....[/less_decisive_words] One thing I'm really glad about it: No annoying petty functions like flick missiles or those puny flick blasters. Also: How posable is it? The legs have Bionicle-type joints, and it seems like three of them, but what about the arms? There's a Bionicle shoulder joint... and then some up-down joints. Hmm.

The Ace Railgun Posted July 6, 2014 Share Posted July 6, 2014 That logo, it looks familiar... the Mech looks good though, even if it's just for the parts, you can never have too many grey parts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the MM logo is also based on the Classic Space logo, so that is why they are similar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
