SUPER ROCKET APOLLO 15 - YOSHINO - JAPAN

Another attempt to represent the complexity of Apollo space missions, and in particular the space walk. This is a silver tin and plastic rocket with a rotating red plastic nose cone and a yellow plastic engine at the back. Unusually the rocket has a rectangular base. 45cm

Battery operated bump and go action. The rocket stops, rises up as the nose cone extends and rotates, and finally a saluting astronaut emerges from the hinged panel on the top. Yokoto KY Logo. Apollo 15 suggests a date in the 1970s.
