The LEGO Group launches a brand-new space-themed collection, and invites children on an epic ride at the Lost in Space: A mission to Return Home, happening at NEX this May.  

Venue: NEX, Level 1 Atrium

Admission: Free

Get ready to blast off! This May, The LEGO Group is taking kids on an epic adventure with a brand-new space-themed collection. The fun continues beyond building LEGO sets!

From 31 May to 16 June, join the Lost in Space: A Mission to Return Home at NEX, L1 Atrium, where kids will overcome challenges to find their way back to Earth.

New Space Themed Collection 

A survey of over 900 Generation Alpha children and their parents in Singapore by The LEGO Group found that 81% of kids are interested in the mystery of what is out in space, and 85% of kids said that finding new things like planets, stars and galaxies is interesting. 

This growing fascination with space inspired The LEGO Group to create experiences that further children's interests and ignite their imaginations. Through inspiring activities and experiences, children are empowered to live their wildest imaginations.

Children can fuel their space obsession with exciting LEGO sets. From discovering a planet filled with steam-jetting geysers and alien life on board with the 60431 Space Explorer Rover and Alien Life to uncovering the secrets of Mars with the 42605 Mars Space Base and Rocket, children can embark on thrilling, imaginative journeys that fuel their curiosity and inspire dreams of exploring the universe.

Children can dive into 31152 Space Astronaut, a 3-in-1 building set that allows children to blast off as an astronaut into space with a detachable jet-propulsion backpack and a futuristic space dog. They can also engage in exciting space battles with a space viper jet. Curious explorers of space can hop on board the 42181 VTOL Heavy Cargo Spaceship LT81 for exciting cargo transport missions on distant planets.

Lost in Space: A Mission to Return Home at NEX 

As part of the partnership between The LEGO Group and NEX, the atrium will be transformed into a galactic extravaganza with opportunities for children to be free and explore space in countless ways.  

The adventure begins with a special space mission card! With the completion of challenges at the mission stations, such as the galaxy space portal or the crashed spaceship photo spot, a stamp will be received to mark their progress. Collect all the stamps and they can blast off back to Earth.

The challenges include:

  • Find Energy Sources: Complete their Space Explorer Rover by picking the perfect wheels and windshield to handle any space terrain, then fuel up on energy crystals to power their incredible journey back home. 

  • Chart the Cosmic Course: Use the high-speed stop motion game to find the perfect moment to re-enter Earth's atmosphere – just like a real astronaut! Line up the Earth, Moon, and Sun for a smooth landing!

  • The Satellite Fix: Complete the satellite by adding your desired parts to capture the signal and start the incredible journey back to Earth.

  • Spaceship Builder: Build the dream spaceship, then scan it to see it come to life on screen and travel through space on a virtual journey home.

Once they have completed the missions on their space card, children can redeem an exclusive mini LEGO Space Shuttle.

Meet & Greet with LEGO Astronaut Benny

On every Saturday and Sunday from 1 to 16 June, get up close and personal in a meet and greet session with the LEGO Astronaut Benny Mascot.

Benny is a lovable ‘70s era spaceman with a love for spaceships and will guide you on your space journey. With four 30 minute sessions available per day beginning at the start of each hour from 2pm, 3pm, 4pm and 5pm, be sure to stop by to say ‘hello’ to Benny! 

Stand a Chance To Win LEGOLAND Park Tickets and LEGO Space Sets

Kids can also join the hunt to find Benny and his friends who crash-landed in Singapore on their way to the LEGO Lost in Space: A Mission to Return Home event.

From 31 May to 23 June, families can embark on a combined physical and digital scavenger hunt to locate Benny and his crew. Look for them hidden around the NEX event space, on the LEGO Lazada homepage, LEGO Official Facebook Page and on NEX's social pages.

To participate, families will need to submit screenshots and photos of the stranded minifigures holding an emergency radio using the hashtag #LEGOSpaceLostInSG on Facebook or Instagram.
