LEGO originally got its name from founder Ole Kirk Christiansen by combining the Danish words Leg Got that means play well and later realized that the word LEGO in Latin translates to I put together. The LEGO set became a standard of creative play for children around the world, unlocking the creativity to build vehicles, buildings, cities and more. Most historians point to the invention of the wheel as a major turning point in world history. The invention of the LEGO wheel had the same monumental effect in the history of LEGO, making it possible to create cars, trucks and eventually the LEGO train building set that is one of the most successful LEGO sets of all time. LEGO innovation continues to this day with product lines like DUPLO that was created in 1969 for smaller hands and still thrives. Movie tie-ins, such as LEGO Star Wars, LEGO Indiana Jones Adventures and LEGO SpongeBob are some of the most popular sets. The Sci-Fi LEGO Bionicle sets have a huge following but the number one selling LEGO set of all time is The LEGO Mindstorms Robotics Invention System. Over 1 million of these sets were sold around the world. In 2009 LEGO introduces the next generation LEGO Mindstorms NXT 2.0! LEGO currently produces about 20 billion LEGO bricks a year and has sold over 400 billion LEGOs in their history -- enough for every person on the planet to have over 60 LEGOs each!

This was my first space police set and it is an extremly fun set to begin with and has lots of detail for a small set, such as the cool flap that covers the laser canons, the police man's double sided face and squidman's dollar bill. You can make a cool little chase scene by putting this set and freeze ray frenzy together. The set is a good price and not far from the price I payed for it.
I like how the squidman was designed, he can fit in as the villian for any story that you set him in. The police vehicle seem quite ordinary, but for the price, you get 2 mini figures which is quite worth the money. It really help expand your space police collection and for those who are new to LEGO, this is a decent set to begin with.
A nice little stocking filler, quite a cheap price, especially as its not smallest size available. I must admit this is a very. A little bit strange, not my sort of lego set (as its space) but theres kids out there who would like it. Squidmans head is one of the strangest lego pieces ever, the cart is just a collection of old lego bits recoloured and stickered.
