I know we've talked about this before but just what is Space Ace? I keep seeing these types of toys online and think, what?

  1. I must have missed the last conversation about this.It was a video game designed by Don Bluth, a former Disney animator.It followed his successful video game debut called Dragon's Lair.There was various toys and other merch based on the characters.I have home versions of these games for the Atari Jaguar system from the 90's.I'll send you pics of the cover art.

  2. Yep, it is video/aracde game as "succesor" of Dragon's Lair

    The console (SNES IIRC) version was WAY DIFFERENT than the orginal Arcade one

    1. superb link Ranalcus. I can see why it was popular. the animation is SO ear;y Walt Disney. It could be Jungle Book! the redhead looks just like Daphne in Scooby Do!

      Dragon's Lair was cool too (but the NES version was a horrible mistake)
