Thanks for the intel, Jez. Top bloke! I'll try to swing by one of the LEGO stores in September. I'm not a massive fan of the motorcycle helmet or off-colour air tanks substitutions so will keep my dark blue torso in reserve until the Classic Space helmet and tanks eventually appear in the right colour.
I know what you mean, but I lived with my purple spaceman with off colour tanks and a motor style helmet for just over a year! and as for my Green guy, he had to sit on my shelf for TEN years with the wrong helmet !!!!
I’m in the U.S. and found a seller here that had 13 dark blue helmets so I bought some as soon as the dark blue torso was announced. I’m still using a LBG motorcycle helmet on my gray spacemen so they’ll have matching helmets (like green and gray used to have). As for the air tanks, they haven’t given us LBG air tanks yet either {despite several opportunities to do so (set 31130 & 10497)} so I’m not so hopeful that we’ll ever get dark blue tanks either.
Yes, I make do with my old light grey air tanks from classic space and an old light grey helmet from 1978's Yellow castle! But they surprised us with the helmet and air tanks in Purple, so there's still slim chance we'll get dark blue in the future. Well done on getting the dark blue helmets nice and early, what source did you hear about the dark blue torso from?
Excellent work, Jez! Love this channel. You are the first source with this cool news! Note that the modern space helmets, while a wildly different shape, are dark blue! We can use those while writing letters to Lego asking them to make the Classic Space helmet and tanks in dark blue!

it would be good if we got a retired color of spaceman, like sand, red, or sand purple(from older Star Wars and space theme sets) And also different earth colors (from a theme I believe similar to Bionicle??? And also the dark blue should go between blue and purple
Yes, The Dark Blue is definitely going between the blue and the purple! It would be good to get some of those old colours back again, but I don't think that Lego have ever re-introduced a retired colour back into sets again. So we'll just have to dream !
@@MinifigJez The good thing was that there was still dark blue legs from the previous BAM quarter, so I could add them. So I only had to order the hand from BL.
@@attilabiro2213 Well done. I hope you find a helmet sometime soon too. And also, thanks for your original comment at the weekend, letting me know about it, which inspired me to make the video! (I hope you liked the shout out to you!)
I assume they're going to slow-play the release of dark blue tanks and classic space helmets like they've done with previous colors. Fingers crossed for 2025! Dk Blue helmet Jayko going for close to $20 on ebay right now. The secret is out...!
I'm hoping they might give them to us in a CMF series. Maybe January's series? Funny That Jayko has ALREADY gone up in price! I managed to find an incredibly faded one for 50p on Bricklink, he was almost light grey in places, but had been in the sun with his visor down, so the helmet was fine!!! - So I have my two now, for my two spacemen.
I would go with the black air tank. I will be going to get some of those torso’s. I wonder if there would be dark blue legs available as well? I bought some dark blue legs because I wanted to try to build some more workers for the Mearsk Train Set. I did not realize the hands matched the color of the spaceman. Is your dark blue spaceman going to be on the left or right of the purple?
Check the Build-a-minifig tower in the store you go to, as they might still have the City spaceman's dark blue legs. Or you could ask them if they have any. Making Maersk workers can be tricky as their helmets are in the special Maersk Blue colour, and have ONLY been in the Maersk train from 2011, and a Maersk truck from 1980, so in some countries they are quite expensive! I plan on putting the Dark Blue spaceman between the plain blue and the purple ones.

Yes, the only helmet you might have seen would be if they had any Lego City space helmets left over from May. Some stores still have them, but I imagine most stores have used up their supplies by now. Well done for getting teh Torso, I haven't got one yet !
If you've seen a spaceman (or woman) in light blue, then it won't have the classic logo on the torso like all the others in the display. Lego haven't ever made this torso in light blue. So I imagine it's either a custom miniatures, or there is other printing on the torso, and not just the classic space logo. If you find out what set it is, please let me know teh set number or send me a link so I can check it out.

Is there anything else you can tell me about it, so we can try to track it down? Like, what Lego theme the set was from, or how old it is?
I can;t say for certain, but I always thought they got released worldwide. Ive had comments for people in the USA, Europe and Australia, saying they've got them in the last few days. - Did you ask any Lego store staff if they knew about them?
@@MinifigJez yeah, but they told me they didn't know when they would get them or if they would :( I'll just have to wait that and hope they're not too expensive on bricklink.
MAN! now I really want the light blue space man. If the light blue won, I'd love to make a stop motion video that is red vs blue. red teem would have the red, orang, yellow, and pink space men. wile blue teem has blue, light blue dark blue, and purple.
I think that it's meant to be in all stores, but I don't know for sure. All I can suggest is go to a store next week and have a look! I hope you manage to find one.
@@Toystorygood well I don’t have any classic space mini figures or faces, but I believe it’s kind of fun searching through brick Link, and showing every color every LEGO piece ever made was made
Sad news for my own collection... I don't like BAM exclusives, I don't live near a Lego store and I can't travel to a store next month just hoping to find it before anyone have already take them all. :( Pretty sure it will be a desirable piece. A much cheaper alternative for the helmet, bespite being far from his classic form, is to pick one of the new helmet from the current Space Exploration theme. Another problem with this color is the display. The Dark Blue Arch 1 x 3 x 2 Curved Top is currently really expensive on the aftermarket, because it only came in 1 set in 2008. But fortunately, this part will come back very soon with the release of the Dark Blue Batmobile this month, so we can hope to see his price decrease or, better, being available on PaB at the end of the year. Meanwhile, you can get 2 Slope, Curved 3 x 1 x 2, but you will have 2 uncovered studs on top. For the airtanks, i suggest the Black one, but more discrete with the Dark Blue than the Blue. Hoping to see your own updated display soon ! :)
Yes, when I looked for the parts to make the Dark Blue stripe, there were only 2 NEW ones for sale in the whole of teh UK and they cost... ...wait for it... ...£36 each !!!!! (about $40 if U R in the USA) So I got 2 used ones for £3 each - still a lot and I hope they are in fairly good condition! I'd thought of the nw Lego City Space helmet too, and I;'ll try that when I make teh video. And I think I;m definitely going to use Black air tanks. Thanks so much for commenting.
Looking at my rainbow mini fig spaceman collection ( much like yours ) I would have thought a light blue spaceman would’ve been more attractive? …but eh, I’m fine with it 😊
This is a curious thing. All of the parts are out of the Dreamzzz line up. BAM stations are not typically filled with one theme but a variety. Some have a couple grouped together but never the whole collection and certainly not from their licensed properties. This is a new approach from Lego. I would be very interested on whether or not Lego would also offer this torso on their pick a brick site. I now have serious need to track down and spend way too much getting a hoard for the space army. 🚀👨🚀
Apparently it's even more than that... someone has commented that the space torso is ALSO from Dreamzzz. One of the characters wears one the show ! I'm not sure if in-store BAM parts ever end up on Lego.com's PAB, but it's worth keeping your eye out for them! Thanks for commenting
@@MinifigJez Yes the main teacher wears a Dark blue sweater with the logo on it. Usually under a lab coat. I am not sure what to expect with the BAM line up, though. I think the specialty parts do not typically end up anywhere else from my experience. But with this being a Lego Licensed product line it may be different, those parts tend to end up on the PAB site. Like the green and purple helmets and purple air tanks did through Ninjago parts. I have also grabbed some Dreams figures from the PAB.
I was in two minds between the grey and the black, but did you see which one I eventually went for in the video?: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.html
I ended up using black. Did you see the video where I added it to my display? If you're interested, you can see it here: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
I don't think that the parts you get in the BAM tower in stores, are normally available in the pick-a-brick section of Lego.com. Online is normally just parts found in sets. I can guarantee that there will be a million of them available on places like Bricklink, but people might take advantage of what it is and sell them at a high price. I hope you manage to get one.
the grey spaceman still irritates me for never getting the new mold of the helmet, and the old light grey elements being mixed in with light bluish grey
Being a 80's kid I prefer teh old shape, so I don't mind the grey helmet, I'd prefer them all to have tech old shape. When I got my helmet and air tanks, I selected ones with just the right amount of discolouration so that they match teh new grey really well !!!! Thanks for commenting
OH MY LIFE ! It's been there for over two days, over 4000 people have seen it and no one (including me) noticed that !!!!! All fixed now - Thanks for letting me know.
Yes, I think there will be a lot of people round the world doing the same !!! I hope you manage to find a helmet for sale near you. What colour air tanks will you use? I'm leaning towards Black for mine.
I think it will depend on the store. I was in the Stratford store in the UK 2 weeks ago and they still had LOADS of dark blue space torsos. But I’ve also been told by people that their local stores ran out ages ago.

Thanks for the news, Jez. But personally I feel like the 11 colours we already have should be it, no more, at most release air tanks and a helmet in the light blueish grey for the grey astronaut. Adding more colours to the ones we already have seems unnecessary, in my opinion.
Unfortunately, we've got the one from the gumball dispenser machine to come next year, so I don't see the colours stopping at any time soon!!! In the fan vote, Lego gave us 4 options to choose from, and I have a sneaking suspicion, that they will eventually give us all four of them! Personally I can't get enough (80's kid at heart!) so my display will continue to grow, but I understand your view. Thanks for commenting.
@@MinifigJez More is better, with Classic Space colors! I'd like to see a full new colour astronaut, with complete kit (finally!) appear in BAM bins, maybe gold or medium azure!
But... the green and grey spaceman had motorcycle helmets for a whole year, when I first made the display. They didn't really ruin the display. Another alternative is to use the modern City Space helmet which also comes in Dark Blue.
hmmm... that's an unusual opinion. I chose black in the end, as it looks closest to the Dark Blue, see teh updated video here: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
@@MinifigJez Personally, I would do none at all, but if I had to choose one it would be pearl dark grey. The black just contrasts a bit too much, and makes it look sort of messy, whereas the pearl dark grey seems to blend in quite well, and makes it look less like it was hobbled together for the sake of it.
erm... ...I heard you, but... ...no! 😉 I think yellow could have gone well with purple (as they are opposite colours in a colour palette) but I'm not sure how well it would go with dark blue ! When I put him together, I'll give yellow a go though!
Now thanks to you - everyone will be buying this stuff and won’t even be anymore left !😤😤😖😖😤😤😫😫. Everyone you didn’t watch this video - there’s no such thing !
SORRY!!!!! the only parts which will be difficult to get hold of is teh helmet, and since making the video I've come up with another alternative, which is teh more modern Lego city space helmet. fairly similar in shape to the classic one.

Has Lego announced what spaceman colour will be in the minifigure prize machine
No, not yet.
That set won't be announced until sometime next year, so we've got a bit of a wait yet.
Yes finally more spacemen news!! I’ll be going to the Lego store in my city center to get mine!
Yes, we've been a bit short of spaceman news recently !
I was able to acquire dark blue legs that match the torso from the build a fig bin today.
GREAT! - I got them too, if you check out the video when I made teh Dark Blue spaceman you can see what I got from the Lego store and where I got the other parts: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
it would be good if we got a retired color of spaceman, like sand, red, or sand purple(from older Star Wars and space theme sets)
And also different earth colors (from a theme I believe similar to Bionicle???
And also the dark blue should go between blue and purple
Yes, The Dark Blue is definitely going between the blue and the purple!
It would be good to get some of those old colours back again, but I don't think that Lego have ever re-introduced a retired colour back into sets again.
So we'll just have to dream !
I think I might not have the dark blue helmet of classics but I have a normal space one from city sets and I might have to just color white airtanks
Yes, the new Lego City Astronaut helmet would be good alternative too. I will try that out when I build my figure and add him to the display.
Great video 👍. In my lego store they made a mistake and already put out the torso, so I managed to get this. 😁
SCORE!
Well done on spotting them early. I'll visit my store next week and see if I can get myself one.
@@MinifigJez The good thing was that there was still dark blue legs from the previous BAM quarter, so I could add them. So I only had to order the hand from BL.
@@attilabiro2213 Well done. I hope you find a helmet sometime soon too.
And also, thanks for your original comment at the weekend, letting me know about it, which inspired me to make the video!
(I hope you liked the shout out to you!)
Picked mine up today in New Zealand.. now to find Helmet and Airtanks!
Well done, and good luck getting the other parts you need.
I assume they're going to slow-play the release of dark blue tanks and classic space helmets like they've done with previous colors. Fingers crossed for 2025! Dk Blue helmet Jayko going for close to $20 on ebay right now. The secret is out...!
I'm hoping they might give them to us in a CMF series. Maybe January's series?
Funny That Jayko has ALREADY gone up in price! I managed to find an incredibly faded one for 50p on Bricklink, he was almost light grey in places, but had been in the sun with his visor down, so the helmet was fine!!! - So I have my two now, for my two spacemen.
I would go with the black air tank. I will be going to get some of those torso’s. I wonder if there would be dark blue legs available as well? I bought some dark blue legs because I wanted to try to build some more workers for the Mearsk Train Set. I did not realize the hands matched the color of the spaceman. Is your dark blue spaceman going to be on the left or right of the purple?
Check the Build-a-minifig tower in the store you go to, as they might still have the City spaceman's dark blue legs. Or you could ask them if they have any.
Making Maersk workers can be tricky as their helmets are in the special Maersk Blue colour, and have ONLY been in the Maersk train from 2011, and a Maersk truck from 1980, so in some countries they are quite expensive!
I plan on putting the Dark Blue spaceman between the plain blue and the purple ones.
Pearl dark grey for the tanks!
Yes, I'm still in two minds, if I use the pearl dark grey or the black.
Definitely be getting this. Just completed the rest of the colours
Well done on completing the set.
I hope you manage to get a helmet too.
@@MinifigJez worse case he can have a dark blue modern style space helmet until a better solution comes along.
@@alisonbailey-c8u yes, the other option is this one used in divers and some BAM spacemen: www.bricklink.com/v2/catalog/catalogitem.page?P=22380&idColor=63
Motorcycle helmet and legs in dark blue ordered from Germany this morning 😄
@@alisonbailey-c8u Well done. That's true dedication !
Oh thats cool! I really hope they make an air tank in dark blue soon!
Me too !
Me three and a helmet !@@MinifigJez
Lego will just tease us again… putting every singe part on various sets..
Yes... some would say that it makes the hunt more exciting !!!!!
@@MinifigJezSome days exciting, some days annoying.. When I finally built my Purple Space Guy, had to swap arms, and now one of his shoulders is loose. Argh. Purple is my fave color.
I think the pearly dark grey one looked best.
Yes, I'm still deciding between that and the black pair.
I've got a week or so to make up my mind.
The pearl dark gray looks best
Yes, I'm still in two minds between Pearl Dark Grey and Black.
I was at my Lego store in the US yesterday and able to buy the blue spaceman. I didn't see a dark blue helmat
Yes, the only helmet you might have seen would be if they had any Lego City space helmets left over from May. Some stores still have them, but I imagine most stores have used up their supplies by now. Well done for getting teh Torso, I haven't got one yet !
thanks that great but i think theres a light blue space man or should say woman that came in a set that should be good to add as well
If you've seen a spaceman (or woman) in light blue, then it won't have the classic logo on the torso like all the others in the display. Lego haven't ever made this torso in light blue.
So I imagine it's either a custom miniatures, or there is other printing on the torso, and not just the classic space logo. If you find out what set it is, please let me know teh set number or send me a link so I can check it out.
The only light blue one that you MIGHT have seen, is the light blue spaceman that was voted on in the fan vote, to choose the colour of the next one that Lego are going to make. You can see the 5 colour choices in the vote here: ruclips.net/video/JZAZRwubeH0/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
Thanks for commenting.
@@MinifigJez I think the set is call the sable kestrel set
@@soulreaper16190 Thanks for replying to me. I've searched Brickset.com for the word "Sable" and also for the word "Kestrel" but neither of them have ever been used in the name of a Lego set. Is there anything else you can tell me about it, so we can try to track it down? Like, what Lego theme the set was from, or how old it is?
I can’t find the new BAM pieces is it because I’m in Canada?
Can't find it in Canada either.
@@bobgerard9256ok
I can;t say for certain, but I always thought they got released worldwide. Ive had comments for people in the USA, Europe and Australia, saying they've got them in the last few days. - Did you ask any Lego store staff if they knew about them?
@@MinifigJez no’I didn’t asked them
@@MinifigJez yeah, but they told me they didn't know when they would get them or if they would :(
I'll just have to wait that and hope they're not too expensive on bricklink.
MAN! now I really want the light blue space man.
If the light blue won, I'd love to make a stop motion video that is red vs blue.
red teem would have the red, orang, yellow, and pink space men.
wile blue teem has blue, light blue dark blue, and purple.
Ooooh, I like the stop motion idea. Let me know if you ever make one.
I will.🙂
I definitely need to do an order
I hope you manage to get what you need.
Hello! Do you think in lego store Amsterdam Bam they will be available?
I think that it's meant to be in all stores, but I don't know for sure. All I can suggest is go to a store next week and have a look!
I hope you manage to find one.
@@MinifigJez thanks for the answer, I love this theme
Finally a new spaceman
Yes, AND it's a really cool colour too!
@@MinifigJez I know right
@@MinifigJez I’m going to save my money and next time I go to a Lego shop I am buying that
@@Toystorygood me too !
@@Toystorygood well I don’t have any classic space mini figures or faces, but I believe it’s kind of fun searching through brick Link, and showing every color every LEGO piece ever made was made
FINALLY IM SO EXCITED
me too !
@@MinifigJez that is gonna probably be my first one of my collection
@@muffin_the_seal good for you! - have fun collecting !
@@MinifigJez i will!
Sad news for my own collection... I don't like BAM exclusives, I don't live near a Lego store and I can't travel to a store next month just hoping to find it before anyone have already take them all. :( Pretty sure it will be a desirable piece.
A much cheaper alternative for the helmet, bespite being far from his classic form, is to pick one of the new helmet from the current Space Exploration theme.
Another problem with this color is the display. The Dark Blue Arch 1 x 3 x 2 Curved Top is currently really expensive on the aftermarket, because it only came in 1 set in 2008. But fortunately, this part will come back very soon with the release of the Dark Blue Batmobile this month, so we can hope to see his price decrease or, better, being available on PaB at the end of the year. Meanwhile, you can get 2 Slope, Curved 3 x 1 x 2, but you will have 2 uncovered studs on top.
For the airtanks, i suggest the Black one, but more discrete with the Dark Blue than the Blue.
Hoping to see your own updated display soon ! :)
Yes, when I looked for the parts to make the Dark Blue stripe, there were only 2 NEW ones for sale in the whole of teh UK and they cost...
...wait for it...
...£36 each !!!!! (about $40 if U R in the USA)
So I got 2 used ones for £3 each - still a lot and I hope they are in fairly good condition!
I'd thought of the nw Lego City Space helmet too, and I;'ll try that when I make teh video.
And I think I;m definitely going to use Black air tanks.
Thanks so much for commenting.
Looking at my rainbow mini fig spaceman collection ( much like yours ) I would have thought a light blue spaceman would’ve been more attractive? …but eh, I’m fine with it 😊
Personally, I absolutely love Lego's Dark Blue and Dark Red colours, so I;m really happy with the new colour!
This is exciting!!!
Yes, VERY !
This is a curious thing. All of the parts are out of the Dreamzzz line up. BAM stations are not typically filled with one theme but a variety. Some have a couple grouped together but never the whole collection and certainly not from their licensed properties. This is a new approach from Lego. I would be very interested on whether or not Lego would also offer this torso on their pick a brick site. I now have serious need to track down and spend way too much getting a hoard for the space army. 🚀👨🚀
Apparently it's even more than that... someone has commented that the space torso is ALSO from Dreamzzz. One of the characters wears one the show !
I'm not sure if in-store BAM parts ever end up on Lego.com's PAB, but it's worth keeping your eye out for them!
Thanks for commenting
@@MinifigJez Yes the main teacher wears a Dark blue sweater with the logo on it. Usually under a lab coat. I am not sure what to expect with the BAM line up, though. I think the specialty parts do not typically end up anywhere else from my experience. But with this being a Lego Licensed product line it may be different, those parts tend to end up on the PAB site. Like the green and purple helmets and purple air tanks did through Ninjago parts. I have also grabbed some Dreams figures from the PAB.
I like the pearl grey tank
I was in two minds between the grey and the black, but did you see which one I eventually went for in the video?: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.html
Yeah, the black
Pearl dark gray looks the best
I ended up using black. Did you see the video where I added it to my display? If you're interested, you can see it here: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
purple airtanks crying in the corner 😭
But pearl dark gray, grey, griy? groy?!?
I was leaning more towards the black, but now you've suggested it, I'm going to try purple too.
Is bam available online? Might have to get a hold of this torso.
I don't think that the parts you get in the BAM tower in stores, are normally available in the pick-a-brick section of Lego.com. Online is normally just parts found in sets. I can guarantee that there will be a million of them available on places like Bricklink, but people might take advantage of what it is and sell them at a high price. I hope you manage to get one.
@@MinifigJez thanks , yeah I don't have a Lego store in my country so need to find other ways to get it.
Insanity at its finest…
Oh Yes!
Nice
Thanks!
Plus, I think I wanna do the same with the spaceman mini figures
A spaceman in denim 😀
Top and bottiom... or double denim as it's known !
I think the black air tanks
Yes, I think I'm going to stick with black
I have the dark blue Classic space now
YAY! I got mine today too. Video coming soon...
the grey spaceman still irritates me for never getting the new mold of the helmet, and the old light grey elements being mixed in with light bluish grey
Being a 80's kid I prefer teh old shape, so I don't mind the grey helmet, I'd prefer them all to have tech old shape. When I got my helmet and air tanks, I selected ones with just the right amount of discolouration so that they match teh new grey really well !!!!
Thanks for commenting

I know that all of those are English word, but they don't seem to make sense to me in that order? Can you explain what you mean?
Brilliant, great spot Jez 👍🏼 Will have to be updating my ‘Every Spaceman is Awesome’ as well.
Yes, I think there will be a lot of people round the world doing the same !!!
I hope you manage to find a helmet for sale near you.
What colour air tanks will you use? I'm leaning towards Black for mine.
Does anyone know if they still have them in stores now in December?
I think it will depend on the store. I was in the Stratford store in the UK 2 weeks ago and they still had LOADS of dark blue space torsos. But I’ve also been told by people that their local stores ran out ages ago. So I have a look and as a backup, there are over 5000 for sale on Bricklink:

@@superchase5026 You're welcome.
Light blue space hel
What do you mean?
Thanks for the news, Jez. But personally I feel like the 11 colours we already have should be it, no more, at most release air tanks and a helmet in the light blueish grey for the grey astronaut. Adding more colours to the ones we already have seems unnecessary, in my opinion.
Unfortunately, we've got the one from the gumball dispenser machine to come next year, so I don't see the colours stopping at any time soon!!! In the fan vote, Lego gave us 4 options to choose from, and I have a sneaking suspicion, that they will eventually give us all four of them! Personally I can't get enough (80's kid at heart!) so my display will continue to grow, but I understand your view.
Thanks for commenting.
@@MinifigJez More is better, with Classic Space colors! I'd like to see a full new colour astronaut, with complete kit (finally!) appear in BAM bins, maybe gold or medium azure!
Correct- CANT GET ENUF !!!
I think that black air tank s better
Yes, me too.
@@MinifigJez 😊 thanks
@@BRICKWORLD-re1qq You're welcome.
Blue
Dark Blue
I would rather a black space helmet rather then a dark blue motorcycle helmet, because otherwise it would ruin the whole display
But... the green and grey spaceman had motorcycle helmets for a whole year, when I first made the display. They didn't really ruin the display. Another alternative is to use the modern City Space helmet which also comes in Dark Blue.
@@MinifigJez yes but i think a black space helmet would fit better. i never liked the fact that green had a motorcycle helmet
Pearl Dark Grey...
hmmm... that's an unusual opinion. I chose black in the end, as it looks closest to the Dark Blue, see teh updated video here: ruclips.net/video/8aPAGD0VkpM/видео.htmlsub_confirmation=1
pearl dark grey 100%.
I'm not sure, I'm still debating between Pearl Dark Grey and the Black.
I;ve still got a few weeks to decide!
@@MinifigJez Personally, I would do none at all, but if I had to choose one it would be pearl dark grey. The black just contrasts a bit too much, and makes it look sort of messy, whereas the pearl dark grey seems to blend in quite well, and makes it look less like it was hobbled together for the sake of it.
Hello
Hi
Hear me out. Yellow tanks.
erm...
...I heard you, but...
...no!

I think yellow could have gone well with purple (as they are opposite colours in a colour palette) but I'm not sure how well it would go with dark blue !

SORRY!!!!! the only parts which will be difficult to get hold of is teh helmet, and since making the video I've come up with another alternative, which is teh more modern Lego city space helmet. fairly similar in shape to the classic one.
