I think mine is the early Astronaut suit Action Yankee... The early astronaut suit & capsule did not come with accessories. The accessories came later in 1967-68. But I think he needs some accessories...

| Lost in SpaceThat's a nice showing Jim, the gloves can be a pain to keep on the figure. I've got a painthead Astronaut hanging above my bed, it's been there for years, it will soon be joined by some of my MAM astronauts, it will be a ceiling space diorama.  _________________ clivvers - saviour of the huMAM race @ MAMageddon 2009 - 2099 @ clivvers MAM Nation: | |

| A great set, especially at the time because as you say Walt, the space programme was big news back then. I can actually still remember de-carding my astronaut suit and dressing my VAM in it. I never got a capsule though. I had to make do with a few homemade cardboard ones!  _________________  Life moves pretty fast.

| You're off to a fast start, Jim, well done! good luck with the chest pack! Then you have to kit out two more and fabricate an Apollo capsule before JohnnyE4 does it. Brian | |

| Thanks Dal, ghost recon, and Theonemankid! Much appreciated! The chest pack does have the 2 suctions cups in the back. I read they did not work well and Joe fell off many refridge's...  Which would explain why many Astronaut pieces got broken...

| I've got a Masterpiece Edition version, and the suit is pretty nice, stiff, but nice, so the ME Joe is staying in there. | |
