I love this set Brian, great find! So much in there. The blue Mars rover is ace and is that a soyuz spacecraft I see docked at the end of the space station [MIR/ ISS?]
Really good set- that astronaut makes me realise that since the Apollo moon landings, toy spacemen have been transformed- they now have much bulkier and I suppose more realistic space suits -but I miss the early space programme-type lighter designs used on earlier figures.

ReplyDeleteI'm guessing the astronaut is based on the LP toy,but painted.
