Arto in Helsinki Base has sent me a few links to three neat vintage toys he's spotted on Ebay this year.
First up is this interesting Space 2001 racing car like the Bluebird record breaker. There were a number of Bluebirds released in the Sixties but this 2001 branded version is new to the blog.
Here's the 1984 JETHRO ZX USAF Space Station Interceptor Rocket Ship by Gata Box Ltd. Arto has pointed out its similarities to the Zero-X nose cone in both shape and name.
Last but not least, the beautiful YT Space Bird, the Japanese version of the Project SWORD Probe Force 3 toy. I initially thought the nose cone was grey but I think I can see small fragments of red paint around it.
What do you think of these toys readers? Would they be nice on Christmas morning under the tree?
