I might get a few. Some of the minifigures look great but the metalic colour that they are in, seem just a bit funny. The green guy with the four arms looks cool. The onlyproblem I find is its human verse alien and it just seems old. Why can't it be humans and aliens verse aliens and humans, I guess to a certain extent you could call it racist. legounsure

I love big spaceships. I will be getting most, if not all, of these sets.

by **Darth Legois** Thu 12 Mar 2009, 2:13 am

I like

Hyperspeed Pursuit: Looks the best out of all of them IMO. legosunglasses

Squidman Escape: Good little set, Like the vehicles.
Freezeray Frenzy: Good little set good vehicles.
K9 Bot: Wow nicely built! :O:

I think that's all. Im not sold on the really big one ye. legounsure

Loving all the new sets. I think they should have mixed up some of the characters though so you have SP aliens and criminal humans. Similar to Star Trek how they have alien races serving in the federation and human enemies. Hyperspeed Pursuit and Galactic Enforcer catch my eye at the moment but all of them are must-buys for me.

You decided to pick all the sets I got on my ''brickset wanting list''

by **peterab** Sun 05 Jul 2009, 12:15 pm

I saw most of these in the flesh today. The guy building the big ship enjoyed it, he said it had a 90's old school feel to the build. The alien figs look really cool in all the new sets. Most of the people at the MUGS meeting where I saw them were happy with them.

I'm more a train head but I'll probably pick up a Space Truck Getaway because it has eight big yellow panels. I'm also interested in Squidmans Pitstop (I didnt see it today). I'll wait and see if I can find them discounted though.

by **Darth Legois** Sun 02 Aug 2009, 1:17 am

I lay-by'd the big ship (Galactic Enforcer $116) and I also bought Hyperspeed Pursuit ($54 I think onsale) and the Freezray Frenzy for $8.

I haven't built the Hyperspeed Pursuit yet. (!) 8-O

But I think Freezeray frenzy is a good set little set, I like the SP Speeder (it uses a white tricycle piece that they used for the speeder in the SW Gunship)

I took the flick-fires off the little speeder and covered it, it looks way better if camera was working i'd post pics...I might later when i get it working. legohappy

freezeray frenzy looks awesome but when I went to get a few police sets yesterday I was disapointed with squidman escape.

I reckon they are all pretty sweet! I will defs get the 3 smaller ones! Also the new exclusive "Max security transport looks pretty sweet also!
Here's a pic!

Probable the usual.... (TRU that is)

I had some money to burn and saw all the new sets in the shops. But I just couldn't bring myself to buy any of them. I like the figs but I'm not a fan of the ships.
Guess I'll go back to my trains.

The space truck getaway has some nice large yellow panels, which would make decent freight, also the rest of the kit would make a nice truck with the addition of some wheels. And you get a cool alien fig to hide on your layout (maybe a Men In Black vig legosmile2

I must say I have seen these as well at kmart. Good to see lego trying to bring back a theme from the 80's but with a much needed rehash.

by **Captain Havoc** Tue 13 Oct 2009, 4:52 am

I quite like them legohappy

Only, the price. Squidman Escape costs $24NZD!!!! 8-O 8-O 8-O 8-O

That doesn't seem right, it's only NZD$11.99 on Lego S@H, so you should be able to buy it close to that in the shops.

by **Swashbuckler Petrie** Wed 14 Oct 2009, 1:45 pm

I've Bought a couple of sets and at first i thought it was going to be abit crap but i was fully surprised it has usefull peaces is an easy build and good fun. its abit like Power Minors people dont like it at first then they come to like it.

Well, I don't know what the price is at other shops, but at Farmers its overpriced. :>.>:

hahahah i love darth legois's pic

but seriously some of the aliens have similarities to racial stereotypes:
Kranxx reminds me of a mexican stereotype with his handlbar-esk mustache and open vest
Skull Twins (when their helmets are on) could be asian with their thin slated eyes, the fact that 'they all look the same' and their bio states an intrest with advanced technology
Slizer has a loose resemblance to old racist black cartoons, due to his helmet making him look like he has thick lips and a wide mouth
Squidman could be based on the stereotypical jew due to his obsession with gold and wealth
Snake could be a representation of youth (another group targeted by police) as he is the same yellow colour, described as a punk in bio, has a helmet-mohawk, a spotty complexion and apparently excels in the use of new technology.
and Frenzy... is probly just an alien

im not saying this because i have a problem with it, i think its an awesome idea, that lego might have put a deeper message for older lego fans where the police arnt as good as first thought and the aliens instead of being ruthless criminals are minor offenders being targeted due to their species.
or i could be reading way too far into this. either way thats the way im playing with them legoeyeshutlaughing

by **Hemish** Sat 10 Jul 2010, 3:10 pm

I was late to this line and have really liked the stuff out this yr.
Some of the ship designs are very cool and the minifigs just flat out rock
Now i need to track down some of the other sets i missed out on
