This is exciting! I recently acquired a BULLYCAN catalogue of their plastic Spanish toys from 1970* and lo and behold, inside were photographs of their COSMICOS AVIONES knockoff SpaceX range. In the top picture you can see three of the range parked outside small card hangars [top picture, bottom left]. We've seen the toys before on the blog but not in a catalogue.
Even more startling is their shot of three of the range sat on the deck of a plastic aircraft carrier [below. top right]. The carrier, PORTAVIONES, we've seen before with just Hawks aboard, but the combination of the three different spaceships and the carrier is completely new to the blog and may represent a hitherto unknown play set available in Spain in 1970. What do you think readers?
* the seller did state that the catalogue was from 1970 although I can't find any reference to that year on it. There are the numbers 1978 but these may be part of a longer Printers postcode on the back cover.
Beautiful woodsy, some people have all the luck!
