About Ice Planet 2002
A theme defined by its setting
Most Space sub-themes are built around a faction; Ice Planet 2002 is built around a place. Its crews work on a frozen planet, moving about on skis and runners and setting up satellite equipment on the ice. The distinctive palette of white, blue, black and transparent neon orange makes these sets easy to spot among other Space lines of the 1990s. The bulk of the range appeared in 1993, with smaller packs such as Ice Planet Satellite Plough (1704-1) and Ice Planet Scooter (1711-1) following in 1994.
Largest sets and small packs
Deep Freeze Defender (6973-1) is the biggest set at 417 pieces, followed by the base Ice Station Odyssey (6983-1) with 344. Ice-Sat V (6898-1) is a mid-sized model with 136 pieces, while Blizzard Baron (6879-1, 83 pieces), Celestial Sled (6834-1, 55) and Ice Tunnelator (6814-1, 25) are compact vehicles. With 11 sets in total, the theme is small enough to complete. The parts lists on Bricoria show exactly where the transparent orange elements appear, and those are often the pieces you need to look for first when rebuilding.
