Saved from the photo-feast that is Ebay I am always chuffed to see a stray Outer Space Man.
Here we have a nice cute rubbery Astro Nautilus knockoff posing under vac-formed plastic in a vending display.
It must be great to be a true OSM completist and stumble across these trifles at the ripoff buffet stretching back to 1967.
Mel Birnkrant, the genius creator of the gorgeous Colourform's Outer Space Men figures, was partly inspired by a 50's B-movie nautiloid when he concocted the Astro Nautilus, the Man from Neptune.
Have you any Outer Space Men, real or otherwise?
