A is for Astrobauble!

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's Astrobauble! How cool is this . . . to cool for space-school, more right than the right stuff, glitterier than Ru Paul's stage make-up at Mardi Gras, bluer than a video of your parents - naked! It's a blow-moulded astronaut Christmas tree bauble, in the shape of an astronaut and it's yours for £1.50 if you get down to Primark!

I'm not normally a fan of plastic baubles pretending to be blown-glass, and he won't be going on the tree, but he was never going on the tree, plastic figures go in the plastic figure collection! Although he is very well done for a polymer lookie-likie! I'll take the hook-eye, crown-finial and stuff off and block the hole with one of those black-plastic particle-board hole-sealers, and Bingo! A stand alone, plastic astronaut, about 120mm in a rather leery space-suit!

We will have a few Christmas posts a bit earlier this year so that if the items tickle your fancy you can seek them out. I bought this about two weeks ago in Primark, but checked when I was over there on Wednesday and they still had plenty of them, Astrobaubles for a quid--fifty . . . bargain!
