HG Toys No. 867 Space Wars Playset - Pt 1 Box and Contents

Okay folks, right up front, I'm cheating a bit with this next series of posts. How so? Well, I have everything you see in the photos except the box! The box photos were culled off the Internet. I thought it would be appropriate to show as complete and detailed breakdown of the set with what I have, vs. just a couple of cursory photos culled off the Web. Having all the bits and pieces aids in the endeavor to chronicle this vintage toy and provide historical accuracy. With the set number being '867' and with the relatively low piece count, I can only assume that this an earlier (the first?) HG Toys space playset predating their No. 877 Alien Attack Playset and  No. 892 BUCK ROGERS in The 25th Century Galactic Playset. With its contents, it lays the groundwork for those later sets. 

As I don't have the box I also don't have the opportunity to photograph all sides of it to see if there's a date listed. Also, as I've just posted a bunch of the pieces in detail during the past few weeks as part of the Buck Rogers playset series, some of the posts for this series will be a bit truncated.
