CUSTOM SPACEX TOY: MARS LANDER

Inspired by both Toad's recent amazing SWORD Bus Tickets design a new SWORD toy post and 37 SpaceX toys, more to follow advert posted last week I thought I have a go at a new SpaceX toy.


I give you the Mars Base Lander aka Wotan's Taxi! The toy itself is really the Mars Polar Lander, currently on Ebay USA. The backing cards are customised SpaceX ones. For some reason, my card front has ended up looking the cover of a Halfords manual!

But where would Wotan need to go in a taxi from Mars Base? Down the pub for a sneaky pint?

TAXI CABS CONTROLLER, MARS said...

This is an unsanctioned taxi cab here on Mars and I shall be paying Commander Wotan a visit. Only a Mars Bar and a bag a Midget Gems will make me go away and forget about it!
