The internet is a wonderful thing.
I recently discovered these toys, which are wholly new to me and the blog.
They are a Spanish version of the LP range of boxed plastic space vehicles.
The original LP range was featured on this blog by Ferryman in its very first year!
They are called Los Vehiculos Espacio and were released by a company called JP in 1969.
Many of the LP boxed vehicles are there including the Moon Bus lookalike, the Moon Explorer at the top.
The unique feature of this Spanish range is that they were chromed in gold colour.
They look stupendous as do the boxes!
What do you think?
Incidentally the space scooter is based on an unusual Hong Kong toy, which I hadn't known was LP, but have seen before, the Space Motorcycle, pictured below.
Has anyone any further info about these toys from JP?
Another slam dunker of a discovery Woodstock, once more I am in awe of your research skill! There must be a vast spanish toy culture out there that we are largely unaware of!
