Well, i have to strongly disagree. When the playmospace theme came out was an instant success and subsequenty the theme was expanded and indeed last for quite a few year. The fact that the playmospace spacesuits are based on 2001 : A Space Odyssey and the spacecraft designs are based loosely on designs seen on late 70s/ early 80s sci fi movies and especially tv series , ( like battlestar galactica) made them exceptionally popular back then and everyone wanted to have one
I am soory too but have to say choose your words more wisely. I dont know if you were around when playmospace space vehicles came out but back then for example the flying saucer playmospace space station was one of the coolest toys to have !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I had all the flying spacecraft from the 80's myself. The winged one looked cool, but the landing gear was far too bulky and spoiled the looks big time. I used to take the landing gear off, because I thought the looked very bad.
And even as a child I thought the swiveling thruster were a bid strange.
The big station was okee, but this had a these weird little jets. Again as a child I thought these were inadequate for propulsion and steering. I still do.
I played with them a lot, but I always thought it was a real pity, these shortcomings (in my opinion).
