And, what looks to me to be, the Rocket Dart Gun by All Metal Products that came with this set:

And this page, for the Space Blazer, a wooden pull-toy rocket by Fisher-Price:

The Space Blazer has previously been TIMELINE dated to 1953 in a Toys and Novelties trade ad:

Don't confuse this 1953 Space Target Game by Superior (with Rocket Dart Gun by All Metal) with this 1952 Space Target and Super Rocket Gun set by Superior & T. Cohn:
