I wanna keep looking at this post just to see if LEGOFan2 ever gets the money! Lolol Ok I got a nice #493 Space Command Center form my amazing CS haul last Nov. Wasn't gonna get rid of it, but my plan is to be 100% Technic by 2022. It's the flatplate version, but I can swap in a crummy cracked crater plate.

There was a small smattering of gray bricks in 894/452 Mobile Ground Tracking Station, which came out in 1979-- but not a ton. And there were gray slopes and macaronis in the non-crater plate version of 493 Space Command Center in 1978. It seems like they made an exception for gray in the palette in the classic space…

Only white parts in that one are the beard and a 2x2 tile, and they were not browned. I also got #493 that was just loose in a cardboard box in the same attic (Uncle's house). The white spacemen were still white, only damage was antennas that were obviously modified by me or my cousins back in the 80s and some bite…

My sentimental favorite is this little guy that my grandson put together around 4 years ago while I was sorting Bionicle parts and told me it was me (no hair and a beard). It has been on display in the living room ever since. Runner ups would be the #10188 Deathstar or #493 Command Center

The full set of series 18 CMFs that I left my grandson alone with for a few minutes. Came back to find 22 opened bags and one big pile of parts, and we had fun sorting everything out and putting them together. A close second would be #493 Classic Space Command Center that had been in my cousin's attic since since the early…

The 1x6 classic space brick with the floating astronaut is actually pretty valuable. There are only 12 on BL and the lowest is at $15. http://alpha.bricklink.com/pages/clone/catalogitem.page?P=3754p01&idColor=7#T=S&C=7&O={"color":7} That piece was only available in 3 Space Command Center variants and one parts pack. The…

Here's my collection of Lego sets :) Out of the above sets figure, around 250 of them are Polybags, Mixels and Minibuilds. Most of my sets were bought within the past 3 years. PAB and loose parts not included in the piece count figure. Minifigure count (from within sets) is at 6295 which includes 300+ Microfigures from the…

Yeah so the copyright may say 1978 but it still could have been released in 1979 (but I really don't know!). It's the same with some sets that had the first articulated minifigs that are copyrighted 1977 but were likely released in 1978 (like 575 Coastguard). The brickbuilt craters are unique to 493. You can see them if…

Building some Classic Space MOCs is on my Lego to-do list, so, after doing the math, I snatched up this eBay lot of very incomplete command sections from #493 Command Center and #6970 Beta I Command Base for $47 shipped. Going by Bricklink average prices, there are about $65 worth of trans-yellow, printed parts, and…

Similar here. My reason (other than pure curiosity) for buying my first Lepin set at all (Green Grocer) was that I always liked that set, but was in my "dark ages" when it was around for purchase from Lego. And by now it commands prices on the aftermarket that are just ridiculous for what you get. I could afford to…
