Subject: Flying saucer ship model at Toy's 'R' Us
For those living state side, Toy's 'R' Us carries a new ship model, that if nothing else can be used to freak out the other player. A company called Playing Mantis, http://www.playingmantis.com has come out with a Die Cast version on the Jupiter 2 from the original (not the movie) Lost in Space. I took on look and had to get one just for giggles and grins. It's about 2.5 inches around and sits about.75 inches tall on its landing legs. I haven't opened the pack so I don't know if the legs move. It was under $5 with tax, so I think it make a pretty cheap gag, if that's what you want it for.
