Description

Fourteen minifigures in one box

Few City sets pack in this many minifigures at once: fourteen figures across just 209 pieces. Builders who already own larger vehicles or buildings from the Mars Exploration line can use this set purely to staff them, without needing another full model. For anyone building out a Mars base scene, that makes the People Pack an efficient way to add crew, since the emphasis sits squarely on the characters and their gear rather than on one big build. Because no large vehicle needs assembling first, the build itself takes little time, leaving more of the box's value in actual play afterwards.

96 unique parts, four colours

Of the 209 pieces, 96 are unique parts, which is a lot of variety for a set built around minifigures rather than a vehicle. The white, light grey, black and dark tan palette matches the clean, technical look of the other Mars Exploration sets, so pieces blend in easily with rovers and research stations from the same range. The parts list on this page shows exactly which bricks, plates and printed pieces are included before you plan a build. Small accessories such as tools and containers reappear in slightly different versions throughout the set, which helps explain why the unique-part count runs so high relative to the total.

Gear built for role play

A people pack lives or dies by its accessories, and small tools, helmets and other pieces give the fourteen minifigures distinct jobs across the research team. That variety is part of why sets like this appeal to younger builders who enjoy inventing scenes rather than finishing one fixed model. Because each figure looks different, it is easy to tell ground crew, scientists and technicians apart once they are on display or in play.

Fits neatly into a wider Mars scene

Released in 2019, 60230 shares its colours and setting with the rest of that year's City Mars Exploration wave. Owners of vehicles, rovers or stations from the same range can use the People Pack to crew them without duplicating figures. On its own, it also works as a starting point for space-research play scenes, ready to be expanded once larger sets join the collection.
