This is the same vehicle in the Project SWORD annual 1967, there called the ANT.

Auf Dem Mond: Familiar to SpaceX Fans

 I was intrigued by the surface instrument on the cover of this old German Board game. The device will be known to fans of Apollo Moon Exploring space toys.

Inside appear to be more great illustrations!

I can see a gorgeous moon base, a beautiful moon buggy and even a MEV2, all familiar to SpaceX toy collectors.

I like the astronaut playing pieces too.

Here's that Moon Buggy.

And a bit of the MEV2.

There's a sister game, Flieg Mit Zum Mond, but I've yet to find the contents of it.

Do you like these games? 

Kev's Kool Moon Buggy and Novas

 Kevin has kindly sent pics of his original SpaceX Moon Buggy ...

.... And scratchbuilt Nova (foreground) and two original SpaceX Nova rockets.

Cor! Or what! 

The Spanish Moon Buggy

I love this big Moon Buggy by 

Paya!

The Jeep Lunar.

It's big! 28cm long!

It's Project SWORD scale! Bigger!

And darn gorgeous! I adore that metallic blue! Do you?

It's worth checking Todocollecion for one. The Jeep Lunar. Here's this example, a bit steep tho.

Manama More Apollo 13

More beautiful stamps from Manama. Here we have a Nova rocket and a Piloted Moon Buggy, both top right and both part of the Triang SpaceX range, which some of you will have. Pictures welcomed! 

Barnsley Bounty

A mooch round Barnsley's charity shops this week was fun. 

My inexpensive haul this time: three built-up plastic kit aircraft, four lovely red vinyl fairy tale 45's including Cinderella narrated by Dickie Attenborough and a paperback by Leo Kessler. 

These will all be tidied up and form part of my winter sale on eBay, funds generated to finance my ongoing VHS project. 

The three empty video cases are for said project too. Trucks, the novel, is now part of my 80's pulp horror paperback shelf.

The old Waddingtons Ashore game is the Missusses for the Grandkids.

A Message from Looey

"That there's some corner of a foreign rooftop That is for ever England."

The joys of low budget film making! I needed film of a fluttering Union Jack on a flagpole for an element in a VFX composite I'm planning.

So, one $6 flag from eBay, a length of pvc drainpipe from the scrap heap, a length of rope from the greenhouse and four grabber screws!

Strapped to my chimney and a low angle to mask  the trees and Pandannas and this will pass for North Africa, 1942!

My camera case has a piece of sign work on it, which will end up in the film. The graphics will be printed out as a sign board, that a worker will be seen painting.

I still haven't got my Spitfire to filming standard, but I now have the flag it flies past!

Anyway, with the year over, it's time to say

      "Happy New Year, Moonbasers!"

Looey
