• Completo "Viaggio spaziale" - Space travel set
• Rifugio spaziale - Space shelter
• Decontaminatore del completo "Sonda spaziale" - Decontaminator from Space Satellite set

* note the laser gun stuck in the handle on the side of the Reconojet.

John's Notes:

Certainly a lot of action in this ad!  Mattel US could have learned a lot from looking at the way Italian directors positioned figures to portray movement.  I especially like the way Storm is walking from the left carrying an item.  I also think it's very cool that this ad shows Jeff using the Air Tank from the Space Shelter to inflate the portable structure.
