MYSTERY LUNAR PROBE MINIATURE

This is an interesting lot currently on t'ebay. Loads of plastic figures but most appealing is that TB1/TB3-like rocket 'LUNAR PROBE' on the right. What is that?
PS. Wotan, there's a totem in there too and Toadster there's some Kelloggs critters in his shop as well.

  1. There are a number of things I'd like from that lot.

    What is the green, translucent plane beside the LUNAR PROBE?

  2. See what you mean El Toado. Looks like a sort of delta-winged jet. Nice. Just seem that cheeky gnome at the bottom. I've got loads of 'em somewhere!

  3. Where do the gnomes come from, Woodsy? And please don't answer, "don't know, cos they is gnomeless" ^_^

    They seem very familiar ... maybe I had some ... but I can't quite place them.

  4. Well, I was walking down the high street when I heard footsteps behind me and there was a little old man laughing away. He went to the London School of EcoGnomics!

  9. A pencil sharpener? How cool is that. Have you seen one before Ye Frequenter of Valhalla?

  11. I have a small rocket very similar to the one asked about, mine originated as a cake decoration from the 1960s-1970s.

  12. Was your rocket hollow, Patron? Or was it also a pencil sharpener?
