S is for Space Paratroop

After the paratrooper post the other day I found two more shots in Brian's folder, one of which should definitely have been in that post (Jaru card variant), still, we will return to paratroopers again and I'll try to remember to use them both then!

In the meantime we are looking at a Paratroop toy with no parachute!

These turn-up as single figures, loose, from time to time as they were probably quite common once, however it's nice to see them in the packaging, and who needs a parachute in space!

Copies of MPC spacemen, but with lenticular faces behind fish-bowl visors which gives them a quite realistic look . . . who am I kidding; you've probably all seen them in the flesh . . . they look like lobotomised starey dolls; the Stepford Space Paratroop!
