20200 Space Designer

20200 Space Designer is a LEGO Master Builder Academy set released in May 2011.

Content
The kit comes with 178 LEGO pieces. Many of these are small plates or curved elements for creating slopes. The largest elements are two wing plates, the cockpit canopy, and a brick separator to take apart models. The set includes six pieces to create the Level One Master Builder Academy Minifigure with helmet, and additional elements to create his jetpack, as well as a plastic storage bin and a Designer Handbook.

Models
Three model instructions are included in the designer handbook, and one additional on the Lego Master Builder Academy website. The Models are based off to display sturdiness and horizontal, vertical and symetmetrical building. In addition, the Master Builder Academy website includes downloadable instructions to make a small space pod. The website also includes Mark Roe's "alien lizard-bug", an inspiration model built solely out of the parts in the kit.

Helicraft
The first in the instructions is the Helicraft, described as a futuristic evolution of a helicopter with large wings and a split tail. This is the main model of the kit, and also displayed on the box cover.

Rocket
The second model is the Rocket, based after the original rockets of the 1960's but modified to fit the LEGO universe. A unique characteristic of this model is that it has a smoother interface than the others.

Space Fighter
Third in the handbook is the Space Fighter, a pure science fiction vehicle with an angled wing design. It was developed to have movement and flexibility; the goal was successful by using hinges.

Handbook Content
