I like this old plastic Montaplex Apollo capsule and LEM. Its neat how it fits together so well.
I also liked this picture of a dusty section of the capsule tucked into a lonely Spanish cellar corner!
Have you any dusty parts lost but not forgotten?

That’s pitiful…
ReplyDeleteIt's a simple model for sure.
DeleteWhat always amazed me, even as a kid, was how big the LEM was. Even though these models are rough scale, you can see its a huge thing to send a quarter of a million miles, land on the moon and take off again.
ReplyDeleteShows how clever those people from NASA actually were.
It is incredible what they achieved in the Sixties I agree.

ReplyDeleteYes, I can see that now. Thanks.
DeleteYes, love those toy replicas of iconic spacecraft - the simplicity of detail was very intriguing.
