Juguetes Dinamicos de Mexico, S.A.#2859 Marx Mexico Spaceship Set - Pt 6 Repo Marx Spaceship #4

This, the last of five repo Marx craft made by Juguetes Dinamicos de Mexico, S.A., was featured on the blog back on  21 Dec 2013  The originals came out during the 1950s and you can see that '50s design esthetic throught as well as nods to earlier design forms. Today's spaceship has a classic 'A' wing or Delta wing design that jets of the time were being designed with and the F-102 Delta Dagger included in the set also has the Delta wing typical of many '50s era jets. You'll also notice that the appliques on this ship sport 'U.S.' markings perhaps as a counterpoint to the red-&-white ball found on others in the package. Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina

This spaceship was originally posted here on the blog back on 21 Dec 2013 and the one we featured was in a silver hard plastic. You'll notice the red dot with white outline applique on the wings.  I s'pose this was an attempt at giving these spaceships some kind of fictitious national or planetary identity. Okay. But now with the glue drying out after all these years the stickers are coming off so they're state-less I guess :-) The original hard plastic spaceship had no decals/stickers/appliques. Enjoy!

Here's repo Marx Spaceship #3. The original was posted here on Toys and Stuff back on 20 Dec 2013 and it is in a beautiful red jewel-toned color.

Now for a couple more pics of my failed photography attempts. I tend to shoot on average 12-18 different views per toy. These spaceships were a full 18pic complement. At first I did all five pieces in the set on the white background and I didn't like it. Then I did all five pieces on complimnetary colors and I didn't like it. THEN I did all five pieces on the black background, but dummy me, hand-held the camera and about half of them were out of focus. So then, I photographed all five pieces on the black background using the tripod!!! That's a heckuva lot of photos to get where we're at today with the post! Hope ya'all like the pics hahahahaha So, on that note - Enjoy!

Thoriginals use much larger wheels on them allowing them to sit higher

  Because of the smaller wheels used on the copies, they tend to be tail draggers

A good tail dragging shot
