1/32 scale space warriors

From an alternative universe,
frozen and set solid in the stream of its own time-line
came the Space Warriors. Special effects added by BB

A rare 'Silver Set..
These once upon a time figures came in flimsy cheap plastic packets that would degrade quickly. :coffee: i was most fortunale for all bought packs of seven figures came in a Mother Ship,which oddly to say the least resembled a medium sized cardboard box. :mrgreen: Funny man! :eh: Eh!

Other plain looking figure sets did come in their own box as shown below.

They were produced by AIRFIX and were made in the France of 1981.
The two highly polished steel plate patterns that formed all these figures are believed to be lost. Or is something like the famed Goose, of fairy tales still sitting upon her golden egg's?

He is of course the famed Flash Gordon!

No doubt I enjoyed it very much, BB. :thumbup:

I never got to meet these figures, but I always like special figures/models that smack of nostalgia for times gone by. :-D

By the way, the special effects look impressive. :mrgreen:

Best regards!

Santi.

These are wonderful figures! Thanks for sharing this with us Paul! :thumbup:

PS: I've got some of my own but I don't think I have all poses. Must check on that. ;-)

I didn't even know that this set existed, so many thanks for sharing these rare gems with us!
Although it is a really strange and exotic topic, the figures look neverless like typical Airfix figures. The sculpting, the choice of poses - it's clearly that company's style.
And nice special effects on the photos, too!
