    Picked these up recently. Repros of old figures from the 1940's. Comes with a bunch of Space explorers, some females for populating colonies(one already has a youngin') and of course two evil robots to make exploration difficult.

    Now I just need a cool rocketship to display them with. I was thinking of something like this Ming the Merciless Rocketship from the 40's Flash Gordon serials

    One of my favorite eras for art, architecture and Buck Rogers-esque serials. These are really great toys. Love the style, the outfits. Awesome robot. I wouldn't mind having a set of these. Love em.

    Really nice. Wouldn't mind getting these myself. I love the sleek looking designs from that area.

    Now I feel like watching old school Flash Gordon!

    Those are really cool man. I dig that rocket ship the most, it would be really nice to use for a display setting for them. Your pictures look like attack from mars, runnn.

    These are about 4" in size. I've actually thought about painting some like the box art, maybe I'll give it a shot one of these days soon.
    I too love anything from this era. My grandmother Inez Crabbe was related to Larry "Buster" Crabbe, so my parents showed me the Flash Gordon, Tarzan and Buck Rogers serials from the 40's as I was growing up. I still have some original Flash Gordon memorabilia from that era.
