The Galaxy Explorer is LEGO's loving tribute to one of its most beloved spaceships. Released for the company's 90th anniversary, it reimagines the original 1979 Classic Space explorer at a larger, more detailed scale, with an opening cockpit, a cargo bay, and a crew of classic spacemen.

For collectors it's a rare bridge between LEGO's past and present: nostalgic for builders who grew up with the original, and accessible for newcomers to the Space theme. Compare live prices from sellers on CollectORbuild to add this modern classic to your shelf.
