David Lovelace: "Finally snagged both versions!"

Dave Johann: "My first space set. Non-crater version here too."
Jan Katanek: "same as 926 in Europe (crater baseplate version)"
Jason Gates: "cool dish!"
Bill Brumbach: "Inverted printed slopes rule!"
Dirk Hoff: "Both the molded and brick craters"
Mike McKee: "Some great pieces, but basicly just a control center for my 487's & 462's."
Erik B: "Friday the 13th of May 2005 became one of the better days in my life when I received a package, containing a true 1978, boxed, brick crater plate version of this great set, incl original instructions!"
Gary: "first big space set"
Mike Roberts: "W/original instructions"
Dirk van Zuilen: "Brickcrater version with original instructions and box. Which is nice!"

Steve Douglass: "When I first saw the 'macaroni' version on eBay, I thought the seller was being creative because they didn't have the crater baseplate!"
Brion Guzzino: "This set comes with Tons of excellent pieces. I want MORE!!"
Doug Wilcox: "Early pictures of this were done before crater plates were made, and had craters made from grey Lego. Mine had a piece count correction applied as a sticker on the box."
Dave Micklon: "Never on the shelves from November '80 (it seemed), and my cousin had thie pieces to this set--sans box and instructions. UPDATE: Yeah, I have it now, sans instructions and bad box."
Skip Robinson: "This was MY core space base when I was a kid, when I got one from e-bay recently , it was like seeing an old friend as I built it."
Wolf Read: "Love the seats and build-it-yourself craters. These features provide some great elements for post-default-model MOCs. Had fun building this set with my 5-y-o daughter. :o)"
Jeff Block: "This set seemed huge, until I got the Beta-1...crater-plate version"
