I recall finding a loose Moon Traffic vehicle like this decades ago at a toy fair. I didn't know what it was back then.
The thing I recognised was the antenna, which was the same as on my SWORD Scout 1. It was the wrong one and took me years to get the proper rectangular antenna, courtesy of Bill. I then lost it in the compost!
Moon Traffic is a great knock-off of SpaceX: such blatant copying. A me-too with bells on, Roxy even shoved in a Golden Astronaut. Was that a SpaceX one I wonder?
A lovely and unusual little space vehicle nevertheless with echoes of those big tinplate moon rovers around in the Sixties. Is it a toy you have or any other Moon Traffic readers?
The one pictured is on Worthpoint's archive.
I kick myself often for not collecting the Golden Astronaut toys when I had the chance. SFZ
