Crafted during the zenith of the Space Race in 1968, Horikawa’s battery operated Space Capsule is a testament to humanity’s collective fascination with the cosmos. At 9 inches and produced in a range of colors, with metallic silver-blue prevailing, it’s loaded with intricate design and innovative features, including mystery bump-n-go action, lights, and sound.

 

Adorned with beautiful detailed lithography and featuring a green astronaut seated with a panel of meters, levers, and flashing lights and a lighted TV screen, the capsule embodies the essence of adventure and discovery that captivated the sentiment of its time. Other colors included blue and an elusive green variant.
