As a set I think it looks cool. Very reminiscent of the old Space Days. I would be more keen to find out if this set was sturdy and robust (just like most of the Mission to Mars sets were) or is it like the Star Wars sets and fallapartable and crapulent. If it were me I would buy this set.

Home One just went down 30% at Toys R' Us. I'm contemplating buying that.
The $100 are usually cool, but mostly if you want a bunch of pieces. If you want white and some black and some trans-blue, go for it. Otherwise, I wouldn't.

Woo! They're bringing baseplates back in non-Cafe Corner sets!
Or at least I hope they will be.

Home One is now around $70 or $80 now. A good price when you consider what it used to be for the same set.

But I don't remember it being very big... And I'm also waiting for a $70 repair on my DS, so looks like I'll never get Ackbar... unless...
*five minutes later*
Nope, none on the black market either.

Yeah, but think of how cool that would look next to a MOCed landing station with the homeship Darth wants docked.
