"Destroy stray meteorites!" ...quite the promise for a toy!

They’re all awesome toys . A must have

I fondly remember the hours I spent playing with Major Matt Mason and his friends.

You call those Commies bluff and put them back to the Stone Age!!

@@lunarmodule6419 I got the Yankee Doodle Test Center. It was white bodied if you are asking about color. The next Christmas I wanted Ideals Astrobase but never got it. Bummer! Lol

Such cool toys, I love sci-fi!

How well I remember watching these on the old 15" Black and White TV back then. Yeah, back when $9.98 was half a weeks wages. I got the Astro Base 3:00 mark for Christmas 1961. Dad and his buddies totally wrecked the remote control buggy, and jammed the hatch so it wouldn't close. :'(

I got it for Christmas as well. In my case, I eventually took it apart to see how it worked inside and could never get it back together right.

Your caps lock seems to be stuck

I had some toy that had a control panel but not much else. Haven't seen an ad for ityet

After Sputnik, everything was space.

I had the Astro Base when I was a kid. Sadly, I took it apart to see how it worked and couldn't ever get it back together right.

They don’t make ICBM toys the way they used to.
