I've often discussed the SOMA Thunderbird 5 knockoff Space Ship.
Like the variation post I did in 2017.
Today I thought I'd revisit it to look at something else.
The figure inside.
Its an odd figure like a racing car driver called Stig!
He appears to have a black visor, black gloves and boots and a black decal on its chest.
I've seen similar figures. I assume he's meant to be an astronaut but he has a distinct racing driver look.
I'm leaning towards a mixture of the two and that leads me to thinking SOMA made a knockoff of those guys driving Dinky Lunar Roving Vehicles and their ilk.
What do you think readers?

They are a bit like Gemini spacesuits rather than Apollo ones.
