True North Bricks
“As far as City sets go, it is not a bad price. However, when compared with LEGO® sets in general, it is not a great value. The build is ok, but could use more detail in certain areas. As far as the Minifigures are concerned, you get a bunch of theme-redundant characters, but... More a good selection of accessories and a decent brick:fig. My concluding thoughts on this kit are that it is great for play, or great for MOC parts.”

The Rambling Brick
“As a general play set, I give 60228 Deep Space Rocket and Launch Control 4 arbitrary praise units out of five. The launch control has some great play features, and the monorail shows immense potential. But, putting together a number of sub builds, with extremely clever play... More features, takes time. There is so much playability in this set, and for me, it hits all those great nostalgic notes.”
