“I'm not really a Spacer but there's something about the Blacktron ships that simply draw me to them and make me want more. At this point I've something like 4 of these and if I see one going cheap on ebay I'm always tempted. It's a well designed set that has lots of... More playability and lots of options for expansions, this is one of the sets that Lego should always be looking to emulate in the mid sized sets.”

“The original Blacktron theme is always an interesting subject to cover. It would seem that the very mention of Blacktron means something fantastic and a must-have for serious collectors, but just because it has the name doesn't mean every ship ever produced was a winner.... More Happily, in the case of the Invader, this model is a definite keeper.”

“Blacktron mid-sized ship. Modular with front cockpit, mid cargo container, and rear engine sections. Comes with one astronaut and a brick-built robot. 4 of the new wedge plates in transparent red form the fins at the rear. It seems like the middle cargo section could have... More held more than just the robot and a few tools.”

About Space Blacktron

Blacktron was one of the first LEGO Space subthemes along side Futuron and released in 1987. Blacktron was the first truly themed series in Space accompanied with a storyline. It featured a large spacecraft, the Renegade, which set the tone for all future big ships by splitting into a number of smaller modules. The set designs were based around a black and yellow color scheme with transparent yellow windscreens and transparent red highlights.

Blacktron consists of 6 sets that ran from 1987 to 1990. As of today, 6987 Message Intercept Base is the most valuable Blacktron set with an estimated new/factory sealed value of $2,239.
Summary
Space Blacktron Invader set 6894 was released in January 1988, retailing for $13, but has since been retired. New, unopened Invader sets are valued at $591, while used sets can be found for $49 in good condition.
