LEGO City Space is here, which will feature new rich models that are completely inspired by real NASA tech out there. From machines and vehicles to spacecraft, your imagination can now explore new reaches of space with some new and fun realistic space play. Two new sets are on the way from LEGO starting with the NASA Rocket Launch Center that comes with 7 mini-figures and has 1010 pieces. The set will feature a launch tower, a planet rover, and a rocket with a seat for two. Other playlet features include an observation dome, a launch control center, as well as a drone and service vehicle to make sure the launch stays on target.
NASA fun then goes off-world with the LEGO City Lunar Research Base that will be 786 pieces and comes with 6 unique astronaut mini-figures.

A nice assortment of vehicles is included with a Lunar Lander, Skycrane Drone, VIPER Rover, and a Moon Buggy. Each of the astronaut mini-figures has its part to play in both sets, and collectors can find both sets up for pre-orders on January 2022.
