Space 1999 without the Zippers

My pal, Brian, has made this video about Mattel’s Space 1999 Play sets and it is wonderful. I love the stickers, the lighting effects, and can image the vinyl scent that I must still have a hint of. I am a sucker for a great playset, and this one is no exception. As far as eight-inch(ish) playsets go, this has to be one of the best. While lacking the transporter gimmick of the U.S.S. Enterprise bridge, the usefulness of the play area is not as unlike a moon base as the Star Trek set is unlike a ship. If I had the room to display one, I would seek this one out.

Check out this wonderful video…
