Salvaged From Oblivion

Some of the most beautiful Spacex II spaceship box art is that of the Salvage Craft [above top left [I've never seen the toy]]. It was most likely inspired by Eric Eden's GK 10 in his classic Fireball XL5 strip [top lower]. Much later this has also inspired America's Ravenstar studios to create a superb miniature version for gamers and collectors. I acquired one a couple of years ago and painted it in its Spacex yellow [top right]. You can still buy the miniature, unpainted for your own colouration. It's number 6 on the price list below. Just email Ravenstar and let them know what you want. Hurry while stocks last! [always wanted to say that!]
