I remember the Buck Rogers boxes, but I never knew they were pushing it because of new owners. I'm trying to wrack my brain here... I think I had a friend who bought the set, but we never played it.

We did play Star Frontiers a few times, it was ok. I wonder if Star Frontiers was pushed aside so Buck Rogers would be the 'sci-fi' brand? The DM really had to put in a ton of labor for Star Frontiers. The rules were pretty bare bones. Which is both good/bad. In hindsite the settings where it's like that are usually better, you just need the rare unicorn DM that loves to write.
