Over January I caught the Flight of the Navigator on the telly.
I really liked the silver seed-pod spaceship. Very organic looking. Do you like it?
It also featured a hot food delivery vehicle called R.A.L.F and is seen in the main character's room:
and outside NASA's hangar:
I looked it up on Disney Wiki and really liked the original sketches for this small Starcom-like vehicle:
It reminded me completely of this small hangar vehicle I noticed in my old Project S.W.O.R.D annual. It's coincidentally numbered 5 as well!
It would have made a nice little Tri-ang SpaceX or Golden Astronaut toy as well!
There's also a similar Repair Pack 3 in the SWORD annual
and a Skid 205 hover carrier
Do you know of any airport hangar or NASA hangar toys readers?
Do you like Flight of the Navigator?
I thought it was not bad for a film aimed at youngsters. It is loosely inspired by a story by the author Roger Zelazny.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed it too Andy. I find all the 80's sci-fi films aimed at Kids very watchable and all have that similar optimistic vibe that everything will turn out fine. ET goes home!
