Ice Planet 2002 was a subtheme of LEGO theme Space in the years 1993 and 1994.
[edit] Details
Ice Planet 2002 can be considered M-Tron's successor as the "civilian" space agency. It featured new elements such as a distinct setting (an ice planet or also thought of as Mars polar ice caps), skis (both on vehicles and personnel), and bright neon-orange cockpits. As befitting an icebound theme, most of its vehicles were ground-based. Many of its smaller vehicles also showcased satellite dishes.
Ice Planet's most obvious new brick is the transparent orange chainsaw, the Ice Planet's team leader is Commander Cool.
All of Ice Planet 2002's bigger sets were released in 1993, including their base and a large starship. The second wave in 1994 comprised only two smaller sets. Though Ice Planet officially ended after 1994, 1711 Snow Scooter (1994) was re-released as 3014 Space Diver in 1999.
Popular Ice Planet vehicles include 6898 Ice-Sat V and their largest and only starship the 6973 Deep Freeze Defender (both 1993). The base was 6983 Ice Station Odyssey (1993). All three sets included identical rockets with satellites.
