This beautiful crafted spaceship, made by Yanoman in Japan is one of my personal favorites because of the design, litho and many cute actions. Build in the mid 1960`s (I think its 1964 but still investing the exact year) Yanoman Space Scout S-17 is one of the most attractive battery operated spacetoys that were ever made. It features mystery bump&go action. A pilot/astronaut in control fires his spacegun that is illuminated and produces a loud ra-ta-ta sound. He swings his gun from left to right just to make sure he wont miss an enemey :-)
Not only the actions and litho but also its shape makes this a very attractive spacetoy. In front of this spaceship is a dome that is illuminated with swirling lights from the 'engine' of the ship. At the back there is a rotating antenna. There are 2 versions known, one with a white dome and one version with a red dome.
This Yanoman Space Scout S-17 comes in original box with inserts and is in mint and unplayed condition. It has never been played with. The batterycompartment is clear and I think it never saw a battery before. The antenna which is often missing is 100 % original. Yanoman Space Scout S-17 is a high collectibel spacetoy that is not seen around much.
These toys are hard to find in any condition but you will never have a second change to buy a new example of this great toy. Impossible to upgrade.
