If I wanted a Pulp/1950s Sci-Fi Rocket or spaceship...
« on: June 01, 2014, 11:44:18 AM »
...what is available?

To suit 28mm figures.

Toy, kit.  Open to all suggestions, but it must be something that is available.   ::)

I was able to buy a 'cosmic rocket' cheaply in a local charity shop - http://diplomatist2.blogspot.co.uk/2014/04/to-stars-for-99p.html - a little small, but has def got potential.

Produced by the Science Museum, they can prob be got from places like Hawkins Bazaar.

I used this saucer which has a total 50's vibe!  It's from Lindberg.

I don't wish to boast (alright, I do!) but I have another 4 V2s unopened in their boxes at present. As we have said before, "A man can never have too many rockets!"
