I've very surprised at the ending amount of this auction - this is a very nice example of the MMM MAC cap, which could only be purchased via the MAC club and a coupon in the US. They typically sell in the $150-300 range when they're nice. Someone got an exceptional deal.
MAJOR MATT MASON, MATTEL'S MAN IN SPACE, SPACE BUBBLE IN BOX 1968
Item number: 126535594270
Ended: Jul 7, 2024 6:03 PM
Winning bid: $165.00 ($10.80 Standard Shipping)
Description:
Mattel's Man in Space Major Matt Mason Space Bubble. Contains space bubble, astronauts and space vehicles not included. Box is in nice condition and toy as well.
My Take:
I believe that this auction ended at about the going rate for a complete Space bubble in a complete box, especially including the often missing Crawler yoke. I think it would have gone for more with the instructions and of course, if it was store stock even more.
MATTEL MAJOR MATT MASON XGR-1 SPACECRAFT GLIDER VEHICLE 1970
Ended: Jul 7, 2024 3:22 PM
Winning bid: $164.99 ($13.31 Standard Shipping)
Description: MATTEL MAJOR MATT MASON XGR-1 SPACECRAFT GLIDER VEHICLE 1970
My Take:
Several XRG-1 sales during July - seems we've established a price for a loose example. Even though this one has a damaged bubble, the riveted canopy makes it much harder to find so the end price of the auction is very close to the last one that sold.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions. Thank you for shopping.
My Take:
This is a decent condition example of the XRG-1 - it seems to be hard to find with a canopy, relatively unbroken and in decent shape. I think this is about what it's worth.

C+/-
IF YOU DO BUY IT NOW I WILL ADD A NICE MAJOR MATT MASON FIGURE
MONEY BACK IF NOT HAPPY
My Take:
As I reported last month when this sold for $99 - the card is very rare with less than 10 examples known to exist. Someone decided to go for it. The orange-background card/bubble for the figure was sold at some Mattel locations to employees so they can be found and easily added to this to make it store stock, provided a nice minty glider is available to replace the one with this set.
