THOMAS SALTER STARCRUISER AND BUCK ROGERS MISSION TOYS




Years ago I blogged the cool toy pictured up top - the Starcruiser Mission Kit - by Thomas Salter dated 1979. I was fascinated by it as the maker Thomas Salter had chosen to make a toy for a Gerry Anderson concept that never made it onto the TV. I often wondered what a SWORD Mission Kit would have looked like!

Well, Thomas Salter didn't do a SWORD toy but they did appear to recycle the Starcruiser set a year later for their Buck Rogers Galactic Mission Control Centre in 1980. It looks just the same! To be certain, does anyone have a picture of the contents?
