IN SPACE WE WILL PLAY BADMINTON!

 This old space toy caught my eye.

Thankfully not literally but online.

The Space Vehicle Launcher.

Its essentially a catapult of sorts and a ....


.... shuttlecock!

Talk about recycling!

The blurb mentions a loud bang. How was that created? I can't see any caps.

Can you imagine a game of Badminton with two of these! ha ha

Do you like this toy readers?

  2. "Space Vehicle" didn't catch your eye? How about Dan Akroyd's "Bag of Broken Glass?" Ah, the toy industry...

    1. A bag ..... My favourites were lucky bags. I adored the sweet and the little toy Baron.

    2. Cracker Jack was cool too. Not as cool in the 60's as it had been prior (seen some of those photos?) but still. Anything plastic that required assembly was a treasure!

    3. I've seen Crackerjack online and they look great Baron. I don't think they were in the UK. Have you got any CrackerJack?

  3. I'm afraid I only have a few toys left, and they're mostly from an IP I like, such as Star Trek. I wish I had more room so I could keep everything where I can get to it. Sadly I've got boxes all piled up in closets.
