Friction Driven Tin Rocket Ship Collectible

This is a nice quality item for the money and an excellent part of a collection. This should immediately bring a smile to your face. Very well packaged (shipping packaging and the box has a fun shape too)

A ton of fun in a little package!

Bought for my grandson and before he even received it one of the metal fins was almost off of it and the part that raises the rocket up bent first use…and that was with an adult woman trying it out!!!

Rocket had some scratches on it. Also was bent where the mechanism that lifts it. Had to bend it with players to make it work. I had to bend the part that locks the arm as well to get it to work properly. Last I had to glue one of the wings as it was loose. Overall poor quality.

The tin spaceship looks great. They aren't kidding when they include a printed warning on the box that this isn't a toy - it really is a display item. It quit working properly pretty quickly and its mechanism got more and more dysfunctional the more it was used. So, it looks great as a display item for an adult collector, but I wouldn't recommend buying it for a child to play with.

The latch that holds the front wheel in place does not work. I guess you are supposed to push in along and hit the tip of the rocket and I springs up. So, it is standing all the time. It looks pretty cool standing up next to my other vintage space toys.

This is by far the coolest toy ever made !!!!

What a great retro toy/collectible. The detail is wonderful. The little spaceman. The stairs that fold out. The wheels that make a sound if your man-child wants to run it across the table. The detail and colors are superb. This was a pleasant gift to give. And very well received. Memories of a better simpler time. Thank you for this item.
