WOTAN has provided bigger pictures of the wonderful Century 21 Lunar Climber, which appeared on Ebay in 2007. It looks like a black remote control unit tucked underneath, although there doesn't seem to be mention of it on the box sides we can see - it does say that it's battery operated though. Anyone got pics of the hidden sides?
im a bit dubious about this one - im inclined to believe its a repro. Given the supposed age of the toy and the graphics on the box, the actual toy looks very modern. Sixties space toys were generally a lot simpler in colour - purple and orange didnt appear much unless it was painted on. this just doesnt sit right for me! Unfortunately, i was outbid on thisone, so ill never be able to tell!
ReplyDeleteHowdy! I'm Rob from JapanSuperFantasticModel.Com, and I am flabbergasted to finally see a picture of the Lunar Climber, which is a virtually EXACT replica of the Midori ASTRO-CAR model kit! I have some pix of the built kit on jsfm.c to compare, if anyone is interested. Anyways, keep up the good work! Rob
