Iconic Toy Art

Further to Woodsys post about his favourite piece of toy art, submissions have arrived for your favourite pieces. Charles from Canada is a huge Micronauts fan and has cited Ken Kellys evocative painting of the Hornetroid as one of his favourites. These are among my top ten examples of beautiful toy packaging, especially the Terraphant painting.
Personally, my favourite illustration for a space toys must be the Triang Spacex Major box art for the Nuclear Pulse as it takes me right back to Xmas 1969...

  1. I hope Roger Dean never sees that- it's quite reminiscent of an Osibisa cover

  3. Your right- much more like the Motown album - it's got the same eyes :-)
