“This set was released and packaged with Kabaya sweets on Japan, due to that, this is small, if bigger, the costs of the set and of the sweets could be more expensive too. This wasn't released as a normal set, but as one packaged with sweets, and this can be considerate an... More exclusive of Japan. But this isn't very an exclusive because it's pieces are common and is easy build with them many forms of building, more than space planes, but considerable little spaceships if with more small sets. The pack of the set shows two different ways of building, but the playability of them like be the same.”

About Space Insectoids

Insectoids was a LEGO Space subtheme released in 1998 that consisted of 17 sets. The Insectoids story line was based on the cybernetic Zotaxians and their droids who fled their home planet of Zotax after a war with their leader. During the escape they crash landed on the massive planet Holox, but the planet was too hostile on the surface for survival so they tunneled underground and built cities. The Zotaxians owned vehicles called Insectoids that were insect-like in appearance and were desigend to escape the underground insects.

Insectoids consists of 17 sets that ran from 1998 to 1999. As of today, 6977 Arachnoid Star Base is the most valuable Insectoids set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $429.
