Is the Britain's Stargard Pilot Space Angel?

I saw this toy female space pilot figure from Britain's ...

... Based on the female pilot in the 1960's cartoon Space Angel seen here on this Transogram board game?

Waddaya think?

 I've never seen Space Angel but I've always thought that Alex Toth's designs for the show were ahead of their time. They remind me of more adult artwork, what with the shapely tight-fitting suits, the rotund chap's enormous gut, the gorgeous gal and the hunk's the eye patch. It has a sort of French look too, altho' I don't know why.

Toth's ships are wonderful too.

The Starduster is just superbly simple.

As is this gorgeous yellow plane with an array of tanks close by.

There are many fans of Toth's ships online and here's just one, The Land of Nod, who has researched them describes them much better than I can.

IS SPACE ANGEL'S CRYSTAL A BRITAINS STARGARD?

 

I've often wondered who or what Britains based their shapely female space STARGARDS figure on in the 1980's.

One possible contender is the equally female character Crystal from the much older 1960's Space Angel cartoon as seen here on Transogram's Board Game based on the series.

Here's an episode of Space Angel, one of many on You Tube.

Do you remember this TV series?

space angels made flesh

Ever since first seeing a sixties Space Angel board game in my Desi Scarpone Board Games Schiffer book I was impressed by the naturalistic human forms used by the artist.

It almost seemed adult-themed and unlike anything else I've seen from the period in the mid-Sixties.

I assume that the board game box art was by the original TV production artists Alex Toth and Sal Trapani. I adore the no-holds-barred shapely figures they gave the Starduster crew.

In particular the female pilot Crystal Mace was given almost pulp-cover curves with her figure-hugging suit. For some reason it makes me think of French sci-fi comic art.

The tight-suited cartoony style reminds me of the ACE book cover astronauts illustrated by our friend Ed Valigursky as seen in ...

Mayday Orbit

and the Secret Martians

I suppose the modern reincarnation of this pulpy style are the two new toy astronauts from the Four Horsemen Outer Space Men, the Matt Mason-like Jack Astronaut .....
