View on AmazonOur Take
A mid-range LEGO City set aimed at children aged 6 and up, depicting a six-wheeled space rover encountering alien plant life on an extraterrestrial surface. It sits comfortably in the City Space sub-theme, offering accessible building complexity alongside imaginative role-play. A solid choice for younger builders with an interest in space exploration, without demanding the patience required by more advanced LEGO ranges. The set includes 2 mini-figures, rover and alien figure.
Key Features
311 pieces, suitable for children aged 6 and above
Includes a six-wheeled articulated rover with poseable robotic arm
Two minifigures included: an astronaut and a scientist/researcher character
Features alien plant-life elements in distinctive colours for scene-setting

Our Verdict
A worthwhile buy for younger children just getting into LEGO or space themes, particularly as a gift. The rover is robust and the alien elements spark imagination. Older or more experienced builders will find the complexity underwhelming, and value-conscious parents may feel the price slightly outpaces the piece count.
