Review for LEGO set 1682 Space Shuttle Launch from Brickset
“This set is the first "space shuttle" set to be introduced in the Lego (town) series. Although not as good as the 6339/6544 (1995) shuttle sets it still does a great job. The shuttle is nice, but without a landing gear and the booster rockets always attached. External Fuel... More tank is nicely done. Set comes with 3 minifig and a vehicle + trailer and baseplate.”
