Description

Spaceflight with a weapon platform

Futuron was the space line where bases, vehicles and ships looked like the future. The Laser Launcher fits that: the name tells you it is a weapon platform meant for use out in space. At 210 pieces the model is compact and easy to take in, though it is more a plaything than a display piece. If you collect eighties space sets, you get one from an era when spaceflight in bricks meant imagination and technology above all else.

Colours from deep space

White and black are the main colours, joined by trans-red and trans-dark blue. The see-through parts are the real attraction, since they look like cockpit canopies, energy sources or glowing beams. With 75 different part types the selection is notable for 210 pieces, so the set holds many special shapes. That makes the parts list interesting for collectors, above all because of the transparent elements, which turn up less often in other sets and are often missing or scratched on used copies.

Three crew members on duty

Three minifigures man the vehicle and the station. You can use them as gunner, pilot and mechanic and invent battles or rescue missions. On a shelf the Laser Launcher looks good beside other Futuron sets, because the bright white and glowing colours create a clear, uncluttered look. As a toy it handles simple scenarios, and as a collectable it shows an aesthetic that shaped space models for years, with clean lines, pale surfaces and a few striking colour accents.

Parts list and next builds

The complete parts list with all 210 pieces is on this page. Use it to check a second-hand copy or to hunt for missing bricks, especially the transparent ones. Add the set to your collection and “What can I build?” shows which other sets your parts could make. White and black bricks are excellent for reuse in spaceships, stations and vehicles of your own, and the transparent parts give any home-made model the typical space look.
