1968 and wowzers! Its those Colourforms Outer Space Men!
They are the true symbols of Christmas for me! Easily the best Christmas toys I ever received.
These bendy aliens were my fave space figures as a kid. They went perfectly with Major Matt and his gang.
If I wanted my Mum and Dad to save anything from landfill it would have been these otherworldly fellas.
They really were proper things of outer beauty and the designer Mel Birnkrant was/is a genius! Period!
Did you get an Outer Space Men man at Christmas back then readers?
I never saw these, as a kid, but wish I had. They're fabulous.
ReplyDeleteGreat character designs.
They were fab Mish. Wish I still had them. All chucked in Preston's landfill!
