Roboforce was a subtheme of LEGO Space in 1997. It appeared only in US catalogues from 1997.
Details[edit | edit source]
Taking the "good guy" role was another four-set theme, Roboforce, which featured various large robots (arguably mecha) in varying colour schemes. Orange Class robots featured a police-like patrol function in humanoid robots, equipped with buzz saws for extracting criminals or rescuing civilians. The "head" of each robot was also a small space ship that could be used as an escape pod or secondary vehicle. Green Class robots featured a more military theme with animal shaped robots. The Robo Raptor was the only set not to feature a space craft, while the Robo Master's small starcraft strongly resembled the Unitron Star Hawk II as a tribute to the fan favorite set. Roboforce "Robos" were powered by "secret" "robo disk" which were oddly enough rectangle-shaped power sources. By this time, the theme was well and truly exhausted, and the remaining sets were a slow march to the theme's obscurity.
