Jay's Brick Blog

Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 by Jay

Deep Freeze Defender is undoubtedly one of the greatest LEGO sets ever designed, and both 30-year old me, and 5-year old me would agree that it stands on its own as one of the crown jewels of LEGO's legendary Space era.

The Deep Freeze Defender is an absolutely phenomenal set. It's durable, stylish, fun, and loaded with interesting and well-implemented gimmicks. It is by far the best of the Ice Planet 2002 sets, and one of the best large starship builds in all of Lego history. Very highly recommended for all Lego Space fans.
