The Lunar Climber

 Mish's comments reminded me that the Century 21 Toys Lunar Climber hasn't graced MC for quite some years, largely because it's so darn rare!

So ...

Back in 2014 reader John S was kind enough to send us his pics of his own beautiful Lunar Climber, posted at the time and still the only one I know of!  Enjoy!
