Lunar Command Game

Post by dho7622u » Sun Jul 01, 2012 6:56 pm

Picked up a few games that were on clearance today, and looked at the instruction
books for the first time (I never play the games just break them apart for parts).
There was a game called Lunar Command. Was this ever released in the US? I have
only been collecting for a year (2 weeks till my anniversary) and haven't seen
any of these floating around. I checked brickset and they only had a BPS price
on it.

Don't games usually have longer run periods than sets?

Thanks all,

david

no, this was never released in the US. It was on my son's wish list for a long time, but I eventually gave up looking for it. If I had known about TnB back then, then I may have tried outlets like amazon.fr---but that never occurred to me on my own.

If you're still looking for this set it's available from Amazon for about $10 http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B003A2 ... g=tonbr-20

^ Thanks, but that's a different game: Meteor Strike, another space game. [which we have, and enjoy... but worth much more as a base plate + micro fig pack than a game, IMO]

Lunar Command is a little different: http://www.amazon.com/Lego-3842-Lunar-C ... B003VDT798" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
listed for $45 on amazon, We could probably bricklink a version for half-that, if we wanted to. Other priorities at the moment, though.

And, drats. It looks like amazon.fr did have it for 25 Euro or less last year, up until the holiday season. That may have been worth it, esp if on sale. Next time.

Oh oops, sorry. Yeah I don't think I've ever seen that game, which is too bad because it looks really cool.
