Processed Plastic No. 920 USAF Surface to Air Missile v2 (red-white-blue-white)

Okay, sorry, can't get this Processed Plastic stuff outta my blood. So here's what's been happening. When gathering my PP rockets for a group mug shots I noticed how the No. 920 USAF Missile had two different heights as well as coming in flip-flop colors. The ones I've posted so far have been what I call Version 1 (v1) which are the slightly taller missile's while I've labeled the shorter ones Version 2 (v2) which measures 10 1/2" (26.67cm) H. This is simply as a way to keep things straight in my head, certainly not an official designation. The second version missiles are made of a slightly more softer, more pliable type plastic the their taller brothers. So anywho, that being said, here's the photo rundown of (starting from the bottom stage) the red-white-blue-white missile. Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina

The four missiles on the right are the No. 920's. The 3rd and 4th from the right are the taller version 1 types while the 1st and 2nd are the shorter version 2.

Processed Plastics Apollo Moon Rocket

Processed Plastics made some really cool toys back in the day and I've already said that I had the missile featured this past few days. Here's one I don't recall having back then - but I do now! :-) They marketed this as an 'Apollo Moon Rocket' but obviously that is a toy maker's fantasy because as you well know, the Apollo capsules carried three astronauts, not two as in the toy and of course the capsule itself is clearly a Gemini outline. The capsule sits atop the last stage of the rocket, and like the missile on the USAF Surface-to-air Missile featured this week, when the release levers are pressed the spring-loaded capsule goes shooting off. Each stage separates (by hand) so a young 'un can make believe his rocket is flying into orbit releasing each stage just at the right moment. The toy measures 13 1/4" (33.65cm) H and 2 1/4" (5.71cm) diameter overall. Enjoy! Opa Fritz and Oma Bettina
