LMS Explorer
The LMS Explorer (alternatively written as L.M.S. Explorer) is a fictional starship in the LEGO Rock Raiders theme. The Explorer is a large ship used by the titular Rock Raiders while they explore the galaxy. In the theme's story, the ship is damaged by asteroids and its fuel supplies are drained, shown in most media to be caused by it falling into a wormhole. It ends up drifting near an alien planet that the Rock Raiders mine to collect materials to repair and power it. The Explorer was designed for the theme's tie-in video game. No parts of it were ever released in a set, although unofficial digital recreations of it have been made.
Sections of the LMS Explorer were designed and constructed at LEGO Futura in Billund, Denmark.[1] Images of these models were used by Artworld UK to create a full virtual model of the ship.
