Lego Space Ice Planet 2002 Retrospective

Рет қаралды 8,431

Ай бұрын

In 1993 the coldest lego space them was dropped, Ice Planet 2002. The theme revolves around a team of researchers on the planet Krysto that Includes Doctor Kelvin and Commander Cold. This theme was apart of the Lego space world with Space police, M-tron, Blacktron and Spyrius.
Spaceport is a series diving into every Space theme Lego has done. Everything from classic space to 2024 City Space line.

Lego was being very optimistic if they were thinking we'd be traveling across the galaxy by 2002 from 1993.

@user-ey2om4qb9e Ай бұрын

Im not really surprised Lego is this optimistic. There a toy company

@lowersilesiamapping Ай бұрын

Its not a year, more of a number that was chosen. the planet the Ice Planet team was on was called Krysto 2002.

If I recall, even in the early 90s, people were assuming we’d be Jetsons-style futuristic by the year 2000.

I love the new CMF Figure. I bought a few of the Chinese New Year ones too. Found a few Helmets from the originals so I’m building a few customs. Was hoping Lego would do a new Ice Planet set , or remark an old set like they did with other sets.

So, the Snow Man Costume CMF from a few sets back has a white head with a face print on it, looking like the guy is wearing a tight white hood or thermal cap. I'm tempted to use that for any spare Ice Planet Explorer CMF figures I get to fill out.

I’ve always found it weird that they called it Ice Planet 2002 when it came out in the 90’s. When I 1st heard of the theme I thought it came out in 2002. None of the other space sub themes like Spyrius, Space Police, Insectoids, or Explorians have a year attached to them. Why didn’t they just call it Ice Planet? Anyways, I love the new CMF figure.

@BrickingUpBrad Ай бұрын

I think it may not have been a year but a number associated with something else. I mean the cmf space miner says krysto 2002 in its bio so it could mean that the number is associated with the planet.

Another great video and it's especially good when the late 80's & 90's was my Lego dark times so I really appreciate being able to learn about a Lego theme I'm not too familiar with. Ice Planet 2002 looks like a fantastic theme and it seems Lego in the early 90's were looking to create a Space Faction that operates on a planet with an atmosphere rather than a planet devoid of one as they're typically featured. Recently I discovered this wasn't Lego's first attempt as they developed Seatron but decided not to bring to market, fortunately though we got Ice Planet instead and hopefully with the recent Ice Planet minifig include in the latest CMF series we can a get a new reimagined set. Fantastic video and looking forward to seeing the next faction/subtheme from Space or Castle get this same treatment in the future😊👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Ice Planet is an awesome theme The world of ice planet and the other related space themes is very cool, my favorite space themes are part of it I hope you make more lore videos for the related space themes (that you haven't covered yet) All these sets are in my wishlist The new CMF minifigure is awesome, my favorite of the series. I also have the set lunar ice festival set with the other Ice Planet minifigures (the set is amazing also), and ninjago city gardens (with the ice planet reference) 7:00 which subthemes are the other minifigures from? I see one of them is Spyrius The lore videos are amazing, a masterpiece each time. They are my go to if I want to know more about a certain theme/subtheme Awesome video

No mention about how the Deep Freeze Defender pilot pods connect to the front of the 2 separated back sections to make 2 medium-sized ships?!? Atlanta Brick Co. also missed this in their review of the theme. It is a defining feature of the set and sub-theme, in my opinion.

I don’t own the set and I was not focusing as much on the sets them selves but as the theme as a whole

@stephenbraker5273 Ай бұрын

@@BrickingUpBrad No problem, I just find it disappointing that this does not get mentioned, as it is a critical aspect of an amazing set. At least you presented the set as one of the best, rather than the general opinion of dislike, at least by one individual, on the ABC theme review. The set is slightly blocky in appearance, but that is due to the incorporation of common designed connections to allow for interchangeability of the sections to make different ship configurations and add significant play value. Also, sorry if my previous comment sounded critical; I see upon rereading it that it sounds much more critical than I meant it. From what I've observed in your videos, you seem to be interested in the small details about themes and history/lore, so I was a bit surprised you did not mention this detail about the Deep Freeze Defender in your video. P.S. You SHOULD own set 6973 Deep Freeze Defender, in my heavily-biased-towards-Ice-Planet-2002(probably-influenced-by-nostalgia) opinion, as this is a flagship set of one of the best LEGO themes ever produced! As a collector and old set salvager to share my nostalgia with my nephews, I have 5 copies and have the 6th on my list yet to sort and complete (already have most/all of the special/critical pieces). P.P.S. Keep up the good work on in-depth and interesting videos!
