Meet George Jetson…
Monday, September 2, 2013
In 1962 the world was introduced to the future as The Jetsons made their television debut. Set in 2062, the show followed the day-to-day exploits of family man, George Jetson. This re-issue of the Jetsons Spacecraft model kit is a simple to assemble snap-together model. It comes injected in green and clear plastic and includes prepainted figures of George and his loyal dog, Astro. Both figures have been re-sculpted to capture authentic likenesses of the characters.
What a ripoff. The original kit had all the family and the likenesses were just fine. Now we get three less figures? No thanks!
In order to keep the kit costs apples to apples with the Mystery Machine, we could only include two characters. Based on our MM sales history, we are aiming this one more at mom’s and dad’s who buy for their kids than for the collector market. Price was more important than keeping all of the figures in this case.
