JECSAN SPACE ROCKET AND ASTRONAUTS SET FROM SPAIN


 
This is a nice vintage space set I recently saw online. Its by a Spanish company called Jecsan, who are new to me. The set contains spacemen and astronauts which could almost be cake decorations. One is even in the gunmetal grey which LP astronauts came in. The two tripod contraptions and the rocket add to the set's overall appeal. It comes in a box with a large window and neat NASA-type graphics. Anyone recognise the figures or know anything about Jecsan?

  1. Yes, Jecsan was a Spanish company which made, just like Comansi, a number of figurines, some of them in beautifull window boxes with 3 or more "levels". They started plastic figurines in the 50ies and 60ies, and went on in the 70ies with action figures. I think there are 2 or 3 space sets available (with and without rocket). I have one of their Gatchaman action figurine on my blog... http://geoffstoys.blogspot.pt/2011/10/botp-by-jecsan-spain.html
