LEGO Space Police, a theme that lived on store shelves from 2009 to 2010 is a very special theme. It was the third edition of this now classic LEGO space property, and saw LEGO create a certified heater of a space theme, one that has captured the hearts and minds of an entire generation of LEGO fans.

I thought with the title like that you're gonna mention the fact that all policemen are humans, while all the criminals are aliens, which is... weird to say the least

Space Police 3 is how to do a revamp of a theme right: it brought back what made the originals special - prison pods, modular vehicles, Interstellar conflict - while also adding its own flair - more diverse aliens and criminals, transforming sets, unique part usages, and a wider range of vehicles and playsets for both good and bad guys. And they even added the anniversary of LEGO in Space in there as a fun nod. This felt like a true evolution of Space up to that point. The color scheme didn't come off as "City but in space" but more like Futuron-inspired upgrading.

Yeah I noticed this after getting some old space sets, this and mars mission capture the modular, full of detail and unexpected playfeatures classic space had

I love Space Police, it’s such an interesting subtheme of space. The aliens and vehicles brought so much to the table, no wonder I enjoyed this theme so much as a child and continue to now. I love all the lore contained within the theme. I own every set, it is a wonderful collection. Great video Richie!

@sonicguyver7445 Ай бұрын

I do like how Lego tends to build on their themes and expand them as they go on. Starting off with just human factions but then expanding to aliens as humanity delves deeper into the unknown. I always figured the Space Station setup was the where the criminals operated out of kind of like the Citidel of Ricks. And the Space Police setting up a precinct there was their way routing the crooks from their final foothold. Also I couldn't believe it, at 1:34 is the face print I use for my sigfig! I didn't know it went back that far, I thought it was in Ultra Agents only. It's odd looking into Lego and seeing yourself looking back.

Space police 3 is one of the rare themes were the minifigures are just as good as the sets instead of being inferior or superior. For example Star Wars is in favour of the minifigures but mars mission was in favour of the builds. All from the same era the sets and minifigures are both collectible. I wish LEGO would bring back fantasy space to compete with civilian city space

It always kind of bothered me that all the baddies were alien punks, while all the humans were fascist looking space cops in dark grey armour. It kind of sent a pretty bleak message. I'd have preferred a more civilian look ti the police, and think having some alien cops and human robbers, plus bystanders of types, would have sent a better message. The designs are all great though.

@OurToyWorld Ай бұрын

Thanks for the take - the lack of bystanders is quite interesting. IIRC I heard somewhere that there were supposed to be alien cops too, at first, but that the kids that played with the toys in study groups preferred it to be humans vs aliens.

Though seeing the working flashing lights from the very original series is also pretty unique and absolutely badass. I don't give a rat's ass about the third version.
