“Usually a set with a baseplate like this would be the large base for a theme, but of course Futuron has the legendary (and legendarily expensive) 6990 Monorail Transport System to take on that role. That relegates Cosmic Laser Launcher (or, as the UK would have it, Star Base... More One (“around £22.00”)) to the second spot in the theme.”

“The rocket is chunky, but I love how the walls open while the rocket is raised up. The clever moving function is enabled by a Technic rack winder. Futuron base features walls that open up to launch a rocket. Includes three astronauts and a truck to transport the rocket.”
