Sets

These are the sets that have been released in the Mars Mission line.

7690 MB-01 Eagle Command Base

This set includes an alien strikecraft, a futuristic space shuttle, and the Eagle Command Base. The Eagle Command Base has a defense station, a landing port for the shuttle, and an examination lab. The alien strikecraft uses its lasers to battle the invaders. It also contains four astronauts and four aliens. The alien strikecraft is the equivalent to the Astro Fighter in CrystAlien Conflict game, although it is a lot larger.

7691 ETX Alien Mothership Assault

This set includes the Alien Mothership and a small mining station. The Alien Mothership can split into four different sections: two Vipers, one Dragon Cruiser (the front section), and the main hull. The main hull seems to be the "Experiment Lab" in the CrystAlien Conflict game. The defense station includes a small mining unit attached to a defense turret like the one in the Eagle Command Base.

7692 MX-71 Recon Dropship

This set includes the MX-71 Recon Dropship, a small mining unit, and the only upright alien attack craft. The Recon Dropship's design allows it to pick up the mining unit, carry it around, then drop it off again. The Recon Dropship's weapons include a missile launcher, twin laser cannons, and two homing rockets. The alien craft seats two aliens, and is armed with seven lasers.

The Dropship appears very similar to video game title Halo 's D77-H TC Pelican. If this is a simple coincidence, or something more, is currently unkown.

7693 ETX Alien Strike

This set includes another alien strikecraft and a small mining unit like the one with the Dropship, but instead containing a pod for captured aliens. The alien craft's wings can open into attack mode to show 15 lasers and deliver maximum firepower. On the CrystAlien Conflict game, the alien ship (in stealth mode) is the Hyper Carrier, equivalent to the Dropship.

7694 MT-31 Trike

This set includes the heavy duty Trike, a vehicle that is a quick transport and deadly scout. It is armed with four lasers and carries an alien transport pod. The MT-31 Trike uses one energy crystal.

7699 MT-101 Armored Drilling Unit

This massive machine rumbles across Martian terrain, searching for energy crystals. There is a small small alien speeder with lasers, but the Mars Mission Team can fight back with an energy sphere launcher.
