Seventies Toy Line Mash-Up!
In April 1975 members of the covert military astronaut program, code named "Super Joe", established first contact with the alien race known as the Xratians aboard the Skylab space station. Breaking their strict policy of non-interference, the Xratians traveled across the galaxy to warn the people of earth about the approach of Gor and the Terron worldship.

Cool idea. I love seeing other toylines presented in Joe form. That picture with the Xratian pointing the laser makes me think of drive in movie night. Great job.

Those FP X-Ray people were some of my favourites growing up. Just so damn weird. I knew I couldn't pull off the transparent bodies, so I split the difference between those guys and the X-Ray Man with the black spacesuit. They don't really do the original figures justice, and they look more like something out of "Star Blazers".

Wow, talk about childhood flashback...
I had both X-Ray Man and the Firestar spaceship with the pilot as a young boy. I still think about those awesome Fisher Price Adventure People toys from time to time and the memories associated with them. Great job re-purposing these characters, DerStahlhelm. Seeing this really made my day...

I love the retro feel of these. I wish I knew more about this particular era.
Great stuff. |
