“Life on Mars is one of my favorite LEGO series. Its main idea is interesting even in our times - humans and Martians do not fight but live in peace and harmony. Besides, this series was very rich in rare colors and uncommon parts, and it can be viewed as the primogenitor of... More all LEGO walking mechs. The depicted astronaut says that it was a set of special value. This minifigure, the silhouette of Mars and the red background create the atmosphere of distant space and scientific discoveries which was iconic for this series.”

Three little great sets in one box. — “The big box that the set's actual boxes are in is very nice. The side of the big box contains a beautiful shot of the martian landscape behind the copyright (which I doubt few people read),ad for Lego.com, etc. The set's actual boxes are all very nice. The instructions for... More each set are in their individual box. Overall, I'm glad I bought this since I like the Life On Mars theme and since the Double Hover and Rover aren't very common sets in this theme.”
