Template:SetInfobox 6987 Message Intercept Base is a Blacktron set released in 1988. It contains a surface-based Blacktron outpost with a small spacecraft, a rover and five Blackstron astronauts.

Description

The outpost consists of a launchpad and a movable tower connected by a tunnel. The launchpad is similar in design to 6953 Cosmic Laser Launcher and uses the same rack mechanism to open the canopy which also tilts the spacecraft into lauch position. The launchpad section also contains a small control tower and tool racks.

The separate tower has a swivel chair on the second level and a large dish antenna on the outside. The tower can be moved back and forth via a horizontal rack mechanism.
