Lego Maniacs' Guide
“The set is a very small and compact robot that includes a yellow Futuron astronaut. The astronaut can sit inside the "head" of the robot and steer it with two control sicks. The canopy where the astronaut sits is a trans blue octagon like the ones in the Sea Sprint 9 and... More Saucer Scout. One of the few cons of this set is that the cockpit is open on the sides and in front.”

“Single pilot mecha with a transparent blue windscreen. Primitive mech with arms jointed only at the elbows and legs only at the ankles. Still, it looked cool.”
