I've always liked the rare three-legged space station by LP or Lik Be seen here top right in Wotan Bill's old collection.
It's composition is described in detail by Bill n MC and our friend Paul V's Triang SpaceX site (link to site in the labels below)
Such a cool and simple thing, I love the two flat circular platforms the most.
Another structure with circles are these futuristic buildings with Saturn-like rings on the old cover of the US Tarheel Project SWORD catalogue.
Here it is in close up. Again, simple but effective.
The busy cover brings to mind a Worlds Fair like this artwork for Seattle in 1962 with it's iconic double-ringed needle.
Or Mike Trim's Car Vu, with those spiral ramps and the saucer tops, seen in the first episode of Captain Scarlet, where an SPV drives to the top!
Another rare toy is the card space-port tower found on the back of the Golden Astronaut gift pack described again on Paul's fabulous Triang SpaceX site ( the only place I've ever seen it).
In close-up it's a central spike topped with another ring structure and a final smaller ring like the LP station.
Again it recalls the Seattle Century 21 Needle
Or even the Tracy Island roundhouse from Century 21's Thunderbirds, seen here being worked on by Mike Trim back in the day.
Another Century 21 building I like is this yellow Century 21 Toys, where Agent21 gets all his deadly gadgets in TV21.
That huge glass sweeping front could be straight off the pavillion at New Yorks World Fair in 1964.
My final sweeping structure is this excellent building and skyway on the box of Bichi's Carlos V Batmobile released in South America.
There is a black and white sweeping cityscape with FAB1 too but I can't find it.
Can you think of any circular space stations, ringed towers or sweeping future scapes you like readers?
