KOSTER MODULO 2000: DOME ROVER

I see this toy now and then on Todocolleccion in Spain.

The Koster Mudulo 2000.

It sort of reminds me of the old Isetta bubble car I used to see in the Sixties [anyone ever driven an Isetta?]

The simple clear ball/ bell jar concept for this Koster space rover, with its simple wheels, is really appealing to me. Its remote control too. There's a sort of SpaceX vibe to it.

The box art is pretty wonderful too.

What do you think?

  1. Cute, you do not see many hexagonal boxes. I think there was once a similar clear-top vacuum cleaner with outrigger wheels ?

  4. I love the somewhat meaningless design feature of a Mercury capsule for the control pedestal!

  5. Yes, all the features are just brill Looey. I love the graphics on the tinplate console. There's a gorgeous spaceship illustration.
