6952 Solar Power Transporter

 

6952 Solar Power Transporter is a Classic Space set released in 1985. It contains a large ground vehicle, a small robot and three Classic Space astronauts (red, black and white).

 

One of the largest rover style sets in the 80s Classic Space series, Solar Power Transporter features four Space minifigures (black, red, yellow and white with 'jetpack'), a droid, the main vehicle with six giant wheels, two articulations, a central area presumably to control whatever operations are being performed with the rig, and two independently-detachable pilot vehicles with hatches (one at each end).

 

The articulated vehicle consists of a big center section with two identical cockpit sections attached to its rear and front respectively. The center section contains an open room with two monitors. In default configuration two detachable rocket drive modules are stored on its roof.

 

The different modules can be detached and recombined in many different ways. For example, the two "cockpits" can be put together to form a separate ground vehicle or each can be docked with one of the drive modules to form two small spacecraft (which requires the wheels to be taken off first). The center section has extendable supports so it does not  fall over when the cockpits are removed, since it has only one axis.

 

A great set of the Classic Space era, an absolute essential addition for vintage LEGOLAND Classic Space enthusiasts, the set is sure to satisfy even the most demanding LEGO collectors.

 

The set for sale is 100% complete and it is in good condition. It comes along with the rare original box and instruction manual. As this set was part of the LEGO 1983 line, it is now quite hard to locate nice examples such as this one.

 

All bricks are cleaned and sanitized and well packaged in zip nylon bags. You will not receive any dirty bricks. I always take good care of my LEGO sets.
