The complete photo essay for this, with many more photos, was posted recently on 29 July. HG Toys is known for buying the tooling from other companies and then releasing the toys under their label. The top of saucer has the words "STAR STATION" / "X-5" engraved on it and I'm wondering what company and what set could have been the originator for this toy, as HG referred to it as a 'Space Station' not a 'Star Station'? In addition, the retractable ladder is way oversized for the figures included in the set which also leads me to believe the saucer was originally included in a different set with larger figures. Just a guess.

BIG Ladder, teeny tiny spacemen!
