SMALL IS BEAUTIFUL: JAPANESE SATURN 5 TOY

 
 
The Japanese are masters of miniaturisation and I love collecting their small plastic space toys. Here's one I acquired about a year ago, a miniature Saturn V and launch tower. It's about 3 inches tall and made of separate coloured parts.
 
 
Their is a gorgeous illustration inside the window box and the rear depicts how the toy/ model should be put together. More than anything though I'm attracted to its beautiful colour scheme. What do you think?
