Lego and Lunar Outpost to roll out 'Moon Rover Space Vehicle' in August

The United States' first teleoperated rover to reach the moon's surface is rolling out as a Lego model this summer, together with two futuristic vehicles inspired by real-life robotic lunar explorers.

The new Lunar Outpost Moon Rover Space Vehicle is scheduled for release on Aug. 1, as part of Lego's Technic line of advanced building kits. The $99.99 set is the result of a collaboration between the Danish toymaker and Lunar Outpost, a Colorado-based company specializing in lunar surface mobility, commercial space robotics and space resources.

Lunar Outpost celebrates release of Lego Moon Rover Space Vehicle

Browsing the toy aisle at Target, Ari and Aiden were in for a surprise. There, among the newly-stocked Lego sets, was a box with an image of a familiar looking space vehicle.

"I pointed at the box and said, 'Hey, what's that?' and they said, 'It's MAPP!'" said Andrew "AJ" Gemer, Ari and Aiden's father. "They didn't even know we had a Lego set until the day it was released."
