SPACE FRONTIER : BUMP 'N' GO GO GO


Yoshino's 1960's SPACE FRONTIER was one of the BIG FOUR tin toys I had as a kid. The others were ALPS LUNAR CRAWLER, A MYSTERY ACTION RATATAT JEEP (name eludes me at the mo) and MOD MONSTER. When I was 8 I loved the Mod Monster the most as it created havoc on the School 'toys' day. But now, having got them all 'back', I give all an equal place in the display cabinet! I was thrilled when I found not one but two bits of film of the Space Frontier on Youtube for your viewing pleasure!
