Review for LEGO set 926 Command Center from Eurobricks
“Simple, yet so much playability. The Command Center display is excellent. One set, containing a total of 7 printed computer bricks, is totally amazing! Most importantly, that one large big display screen. This is not a very big complex command center, but it certainly looks... More the best around here, with those amazing parts, which you can hardly see it anymore in most of the Space theme.”
