I adored the little silver accessories like these from the Major Matt Mason range.
I especially liked the rifle at the top.
It was only as an adult that I found out it was a miniature copy of the mighty life-sized Lost in Space Roto Jet Gun. What a toy! I would have loved it.
Turns out too there were more like this, especially in Japan, who seemed to really go for the style of rifle.
Did or do you have anything like this?
I still have my Matt Mason Roto Jet gun. I was aware of the LIS origin as a kid, but I had to Google it to find confirmation that it was actually used in the series..

Fascinating link Looey! Great toy origins discussed there, altho I'm still unsure if LI$ or Mattel came up with the Roto Jet first. Chicken and egg!
