Three Space Helmets

Here the are: the General Mills premium for Captain Video, the Arant Plastics bubble and the Banner Plastics helmet with Radar Goggles.

I wonder what General Mills is doing for a cereal premium nowadays?

About the TOYCHEST

Welcome! This is the place where I, your friendly neighborhood Space Commander, can share vintage space toys and the inspiring paraphenalia aimed at the children of the Space Age during the 1950's and 60's with all you Junior Rocket Rangers and Space Cadets out there. Some of these items are from my own private space horde, and others are interesting novelities I've come across through my many travels across the Solar System.

"We, as official Rocket Rangers, hereby promise to abide by the Ranger code and to support forever the cause of freedom, truth and justice throughout the universe."

Here's your membership ticket young trooper, now lets prepare to Blast Off!
