LEGO City 60434, Space Base and Rocket Launchpad, depicts a space base with a rocket launchpad. Released in 2024 under City Space, the set contains 1424 pieces and belongs to the contemporary space range within LEGO City.
This model presents space exploration through the civilian, mission based world of LEGO City. It is not tied to an external license, instead offering a City Space setting built around a ground base, a launch area and an operational crew environment.
The lineup includes Alien, Lime, several astronauts in white spacesuits with different backpacks, helmets or armor elements, an astronaut in a Pearl Titanium spacesuit with Pearl Gold epaulette and helmet, and Robot, Opal Trans-Purple Battery Pack.
The set is suited to both story led play and display within a City Space collection. Its base and launchpad give it the role of an operations hub, making it a natural anchor for scenes involving crew preparation, launch activity, technical support and contact with extraterrestrial life.
