THE MYSTERY OF THE GALACTIC BOOM

These are new to the blog. I saw them on an online mosey round auctions. They are called Galactic Boom and are blister carded spaceships. I assume they're plastic but I don't know. There are another two words to the right of Galactic Boom in red and yellow but I can't make it out.

Have you come across these before readers?

  1. looks like 'Pedro Miras'. They are catapult launched planes, with a plastic cap in the nose to make the 'galactic boom' on impact. The centre one looks very familiar in style..
