About this deal

According to Matthew Aston, one of the producers for the movie, Lenny’s design drew inspiration from Kylie Minogue, specifically her pink space suit from the Put Yourself In My Place music video. His name Lenny is also a nod to “ Charlene Robinson“, the character she played in the Aussie soap opera, Neighbours. Alfred Pennyworth • Aquaman • Bane • Batman • Brainiac • Commissioner Gordon • Cyborg • General Zod • Green Arrow • Green Lantern • Harley Quinn • LexBot • Lex Luthor • Maggie Sawyer • Jimmy Olsen • Lois Lane • Perry White • Robin • Superman • Supergirl • The Flash • The Joker • Joker Henchman • The Riddler • The Scarecrow • Two-Face • Two-Face Henchman • Wonder Woman Here’s a look at the Yellow and White Classic Space Minifigures, named Kenny and Jenny respectively. Benny comes with a walkie talkie, and his design hasn’t really changed much from the LEGO Movie 1 version.

Although not new or particularly rare, I was pleased to see that many of the parts commonly seen in classic space sets which were new at the time are used in this set: On LEGO.com, he is described to be from the 70s as the original classic spacemen were first released in 1978 as some of the world's first minifigures, but they weren't released in blue until 1984. Anubis Guard • Charlie the Funland Robot • Dada-Doo • Daphne • Fred • Mummy • Mumsy-Doo • Scooby-Doo • Shaggy • Velma Note: Yes, I know these sets were technically released in late December 2018, but they’re still considered a 2019 set. DC Universe: Alfred Pennyworth | Aquaman | Cyborg | The Flash | Green Lantern | Harley Quinn | Lex Luthor | Superman | Wonder WomanIt is unknown what happened to Benny's spaceship after it was confiscated by the Micro Managers. It is either inoperative or intact as The Man Upstairs has yet to be seen taking it apart. It could've also been destroyed if it was near the Explosion of the Kragle and Piece of resistance in the LEGO world. The inclusion of Lenny, the new Pink Classic Spaceman is another master-stroke as it effectively expands the Classic Space universe in the same way that the Exo Suit did. Features a THE LEGO® MOVIE 2™ spaceship toy with a minifigure seat and a lunar buggy with 2 minifigure seats. If you’re new to LEGO, this is a nod to the fact that chins of Classic Space LEGO minifigures often snapped due to a design flaw (and mostly heavy play) and for a lot of fans, their minifigures often had the gold on their torsos wear away, get scratched or have it turn white from age/play. The set comes with a small spaceship, which is a great homage to the forms and aesthetics of Spaceships from the Classic Space Era with its triangular shape.

In the Movie, The large missiles to Benny's spaceship are fully gray. But in it's set form, the head of the missiles are yellow. Aragorn • Boromir • Cave Troll • Citadel Guard • Durin's Bane • Fell Beast • Frodo • Gandalf • Gimli • Gollum • Gothmog • Legolas • Merry • Mordor Orc • Oliphaunt • Olog-hai • Pippin • Sam • Saruman • Sauron • Shelob It’s one of the most anticipated sets so far, so without further ado, let’s jump into a short review of 70481 Benny’s Space Squad– featuring Lenny, the new Pink Classic Space minifigure!

The Completed Model

See above for a comparison of an original Classic Space blue minifigure in very good condition, one that has lots of wear on it (notice the white moon), Benny from The LEGO Movie 1 and lastly, Benny from The LEGO Movie 2.

Here’s a comparison between an actual Classic Space Yellow space minifigure from my personal collection who is on the left, and Kenny who is on the right. Despite being adept with old space technologies, he is unable to decipher more modern ones like those in Business' computer room. Or, they are just unable to decipher him. Emmet is the only member of the fellowship of strangers to not ride with the ship. Although he has seen it in the real world.

Even at full price, this set is an incredible steal.Ancient Psychic Tandem War Elephant • Banana Guard • BMO • Bouncy Bee • Box Kingdom Citizen • Choose Goose • Cinnamon Bun • Earl of Lemongrab • Evil Guy • Fern • Finn • Flame Princess • Giant Ogre • Gnome • Goliad • Gumball Guardian • Gunter • Heart Beast • Hunny Bunny • Ice King • Jake • Key-per • Lady Rainicorn • Lemonjon • Lop Top • Lumpy Space Princess • Magic Man • Manfried • Mannish Man • Marauder • Marceline • Monster • Mountain Man • N.E.P.T.R. • Old Lady • Peppermint Butler • Pillow Dragon • Princess Bubblegum • Roselinen • Sleepy Sam • Snail • Snow Golem • Stormo • The Lich • Tree Trunks You know what makes an awesome day even awesomer?

Billy Peltzer • Brain Gremlin • Daffy • Gizmo • Gremlin • Greta • Kate Beringer • Lynn Peltzer • Mohawk • Mr. Wing • Murray Futterman • Pete Fountaine • Ruby Deagle • Stripe • Vegetable Gremlin So there you have it, 2 old favourites, Benny and a brand new entrant into Classic Space, making this quite the momentous set.
