Description :
Vintage
(circa 1960) NASA Space Capsule from SH-Horikawa of Japan in blue. Astronaut in
aqua-colored lace-up spacesuit sits on a yellow seat under the clear capsule
hatch and has a dashboard with 2 flashing lights. Lots and lots of great
details in the design – capsule heat panels painted to look 3D, thrusters in
the back, antenna with red ends, and the NASA logo on the side. In
pretty good condition with great color and a minimal amount of cosmetic issues
given its age; we think a good scrub and polish would really make this toy
shine. Runs on 3 “D” batteries. Turns on, rolls and spins; the two lights on
the dashboard blink and the lights in the orange cone section turn on and spin.
We read that there used to be smoke that came out of the back end, but we see
no sign of that. On/off button on rear. Please see photos for
details/condition. Measures
5.5” H to antenna balls, shy 11” L and 6” in diameter.
