Woodsy and Fellow Moonbasers,
A couple of weeks back Woodsy featured this LP #205 set in a post. He mentioned it was on auction and I thought perhaps it was eBay UK.
Wellll, I did a quick search on American fleaBay for LP sets in general and it showed up! It had a reasonable 'buy it now' price but the postage was a tad pricey coming from Argentina, but I've been down that road before and knew that if I didn't buy it the opportunity would be lost...
...it showed up at my door last week after only
about eight days in transit - quite fast for an international shipment.
The little dome is the same as what I have in the Montgomery Wards Miniature Apollo Exploration set, only in red.

Have you got one?
Excellent capture! What a toy treasure that is! SFZ
ReplyDeleteThank you! LP sets of any kind are hard to come buy so I had to snatch it up!
DeleteGlad you snagged it Ed! The Red do.e is a first for me. That's an impressive Apollo Moon set you have too!
ReplyDeleteMany Many Thanx Woodsy! Moonbase Central has been an excellent source for ideas, for finding out about things in general I never knew existed, and the occasional lead for a purchase! For example, saving fleaBay searches (like the 'Blue Box Space Station' you posted not long ago) in the hopes I get lucky and one becomes available. Paul from New Zealand had posted the diecast original Batmobile from Mattel and I was able to get one of those as well (and at a very reasonable price). So a big shout out and thanx to all for your contributions!
DeleteYou're very welcome Ed!
