Galaxy Squad is a Space theme that was to be introduced in 2013. However, several of the sets were released prematurely in Canada and the United States of America in November 2012.
Description
The theme featured a group of humans and their robotic sidekicks defending Earth from invasion by the hands of alien bugs, which resembled anthropomorphic insects. The humans and robots are split into different "teams", distinguished by the colour theme of their minifig printings and vehicles, as well as a unique insignia. These teams were the blue team, red team, green team, and orange team, and each team consisted of one robotic sidekick and one human (or, in the case of the orange team, two humans). Their vehicles were mainly white, with certain detailing sharing the respective team's colour. The aliens consisted of Alien Mosquitoids and Alien Buggoids (the latter of which had a green as well as a red variant), and they piloted vehicles that resembled various insects. These vehicles were primarily lime-green, with transparent-red cockpits. A second wave of sets will be released in the summer of 2013.
Each squadron has a different strength - Green Team: defence, Red Team: speed, Orange Team: firepower and Blue Team: strategy. [1]
