I had the mercuri capsule back in 1974 and I had a Lil comand center that was part of the major Mat Mason collection it ha 3 chairs and a screen with a capsule orbiting the moon and earth in the background , I used to put 2 of my joes in the comand center and all do Mat Mason figures were a lot smaller than GI JOE they sat on the chairs very well , well we moved from East Camdem New Jersey back to Puerto Rico and left it in the basement 😢😢, that broke my heart, I was never able to buy it again all do I kept collecting Joe's in the island, it was an awesome toy I wish I can find one at a good price to show my grandson, we play with all my joes and vehicles when he vists me. Thank you for another great video.
While I would settle for the MIssion Splashdown version, I truly fell in love with the more accurate Mercury capsule and suit in the FAO Schwartz exclusive set. Alas, it is not a time critical yearning, and I keep spending my budget on smaller purchases. 🤑

Agreed! I like the Friendship 7 capsule better myself.
Can't find one at a price I'm willing to pay either
Hasbro may have had their heads up their butt on that one. It seems the AOA may have been the right crew to keep Hasbro Joe's going strong.
