[edit] Factions

[edit] The Astronauts

The Humans are a group of astronauts that have come to Mars in search of green energy crystals found on the Martian surface. In the storyline they are using them to power there futuristic devices, unfortunately for them the Aliens want them too! The Human structures consist of two colors, orange and white. There are a range of astronaut members in the Mars Mission line.

[edit] Aliens

The Aliens have came from an unknown place in the universe for the crystals. They are not from Mars (According to the LEGO magazine and LEGO battles). The Aliens themselves are transparent green and they also glow in the dark. Alien Commanders is The leader of the alien army. The aliens are shown to live in underground hives. In 2008, it appeared that the aliens have been found, and the hives were destroyed.Also according to Lego Battels,there seems to be a Alien Queen.The alien queen has looks like an alien commander, but her legs are the same as Spy Clops.

[edit] Features

[edit] Pump System

Lego revived an older, forgotten feature in this new theme. The pump system, which was pioneered in the one of the previous space ranges Life on Mars.

[edit] Crystals

The crystals are one of the main reasons that the Humans and Aliens came to Mars. Both races wish to use these crystals for power sources, which can be used to supply energy to all of their respective vehicles and other systems.

[edit] Trivia

• The humans chose orange and white because the two colors reflect harmful rays from Mars, which has no ozone.
• The next space theme features Space Police defending against alien criminals. The largest set has an old statue of a Mars Mission Spacer. This may mean that the themes are related.
