I think this is new to me, this little space car by Nasta of NYC dated 1976.
I saw this online a while back.
Its part of this wider Flash Gordon range by Nasta, which is featured on Flickr.
We just need to find the other two now!
Anyone?
The cone thrusters—inspired by R-7Anyone done a side-by-side photo of a Dalek and Sputnik III?
What's R-7?No, not done that photo. Sorry.
These toys are way cute. Were they inspired by a current TV series or movie? They look so retro for the 1970s. SFZ
It says Flash Gordon SF, but I've no idea if vehicles like this appeared in a Flash cartoon. I doubt it. There are some old egg space cars that look similar too.
