In 2011 Lego dropped a very unique sub theme of Lego Space, Alien Conquest. It focused on the ADU trying to stop aliens from invading earth. The themes lore connected many lego themes together such as Atlantis, pharaoh's Quest, Dino and Lego City. So lets get into on this episode of Spaceport!
Spaceport is a series diving into every Space theme Lego has done. Everything from classic space to 2024 City Space line.

Now that I think about it, you could combine the ADU and Galaxy Squad human forces into one army. The ADU was formed to fight aliens that attack earth, but they seem to only operate on the planet's surface and within Earth's atmosphere. While the Galaxy Squad could have been created later as an elite force that took the fight to space. With heavier armor and vehicles designed for space travel and combat. There are also many CMF Robots, Sci-Fi troopers and Aliens that you can add. The CMF series 1 Robot could be a prototype for the GS robots. The seres 7 Galaxy Patrol, series 13 Galaxy Trooper, and series 16 Cyborg could easily be added to the GS. What if a Galaxy Squad member went Rogue and became the Space Villain!? He then stole a series 1 robot and upgraded and reprogramed it into his sidekick, the series 8 Evil Robot. They then went on to gather other human criminals from Earth's fledgling spacefaring colonies. Forming a criminal group that would come to be known...as Blacktron. The response to this new threat would be a new group of spacefaring law enforcement, the Space Police. I may have gotten WAY too into this! 😅

I wonder if part of its cancellation had to do with just the huge amount of themes lego was trying to throw out at the time to see what stick and I guess that theme was Ninjago as anyone who grew up with lego 2011 knows ninjago was huuuge.

Would you ever consider doing a timeline video of all the connected LEGO themes? I imagine in my head there is themes going on at the same time, such as Power Miners, Alien Conquest, and maybe even Ultra Agents. I know that themes lead into each other, and have reoccurring characters. What would the evolution be from Adventurers to Alien Conquest to classic space? How did LEGO people go from getting attacked on Earth by aliens to colonizing other planets and developing the Space Police? What is the link between the modular buildings (time period), and the characters in these themes? I know that a couple of characters from the adventurers theme have popped up in recent sets (I.E. the orient express and the natural history museum)

Speaking of I always liked the headcanon of the ADU being the processor too the blue team form Galaxy squad (and after bug war becoming the ultra agents) to a point I been thinking of modding them to be part of that theme and perhaps vice versa.

Honestly, compared to Dreamzzz and modern Ninjago, I really miss how focused these original Lego IPs used to be. Nowadays everything feels like such a hodgepodge of wacky sci-fantasy. Ninjago (and now dreamz) have become sort of a dumping ground for all of Lego’s ideas, when back then we would get four or five separate themes with clear concepts and ideas. I am excited for the rumored Johnny Thunder “reboot” this summer, and the space city sets are admittedly pretty cool. I just wish they would give us a proper fantasy line for people who can’t keep justifying massive 300+ sets

I would always have characters run around on the outer ring shooting at the center while the claw tries to reach up and stop them.

The jet copper is based on a real vehicle. They were trying to find a way to make helicopters faster.

Then it was said Solomon Blaze, leader of the Ultra Agents was a veteran from the war against the space bugs... and not just one but 2 of his villains now are elemental masters from Ninjago. While using the Relm crystal, the Ninja of Ninjago travel to Chima a couple times, briefly, and fight the Nightmare King along with Dreamzzz in their sleep. It's all connected!

You should make a video about the original classic spacemen a subscriber milestone

I did one about every classic spacemen figure Lego has done. At some point I will do more contests on the original classic space sets.

What if you could build like the aliens home planet on one base plate What would it look like what the plants or wildlife would look like or what they're cities would look like that would be interesting for those types of aliens and not to mention make like a past lore or present lore or future lore that would be more interesting

The part that was so dark of the lego mini figures having they're brains sucked out was awesome I love dark crap like that yeah I'm a bit weird heck I like monsters from dark cartoons heck I use to love invader zim and I love 3 particular episodes bestest friends and dark harvest and a Halloween episode but now I'm into a different cartoon called villainous and the character called black hat is a eldritch horror and he's pretty evil and I like it he'll scare the crap out of the characters that works for him or if the characters work for him mess up he would do something dastardly to them anyways but I also like other shows like hazbin hotel and helluva boss both shows got angels and demons yeah I'm just monster fanatic basically I love monsters and one more thing I also like the grim adventures of Billy and Mandy that show has monsters and its dark for a kids show but I loved it when I was a kid I was never scared of it. It's like the love of monsters came natural to me not too mention courage the cowardly dog I was never scared of it either now as a grown adult now I love monsters I even created my own villainous OC/black hat oc her name is Mrs Nayarl Hats and she is half eldritch horror/cosmic horror/HP Lovecraftian horror and half Jorogumo yokai/Asian mythological creature and I drew her one day she is the most beautiful monster I ever made and I like her

Honestly I would see it has just like one giant military base. Like I’m trying to thing of some planet from Star Wars or other sci fi to compare it to but I can’t. Like I just see it as this planet covered with barracks, airfields, weapons rooms. And then a giant citadel in the middle were the alien villainess rules.

@@BrickingUpBrad I love Mtron, Blacktron 2, Space Police 2, Ice Planet and some Spyrius sets. I felt really disappointed by what came next, as if the theme was slowly dying (tasteless Explorians, missdesigned UFO...) Until Alien Conquest, with its magnificent truck and chopper. I must say Space also suffered from the Starwars competition, but starting Starwars is like getting too close to à Sarlack’s pit.

Does a jet with jet engines really need helicopter blades? I see someone is not very familiar with Air Wolf.
