Message-ID: <888@sdcsvax.UUCP> Date: Fri, 24-May-85 16:45:06 EDT Article-I.D.: sdcsvax.888 Posted: Fri May 24 16:45:06 1985 Date-Received: Sun, 26-May-85 22:00:36 EDT Distribution: na Organization: U.C. San Diego Lines: 17 In the very late 60's or early 70's Mattel had a line of spacemen (each sold separately) and a whole bunch of gadgets to go along with them (e.g., a space station, etc). These men were about 6 inches high, and were molded plastic/rubber, sort of like a gumby. Each wore a differently colored space suit. Does anyone remember the names of these men? I recently found one of them. I seem to recall they had names like "Major Matt". The one I have is wearing a blue space suit.
