Joe K. Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 . Here's an undated, two-sided Kilgore trade ad. This side features Count Down - Magnetic Space Race Game featuring "Whirling Willie" the flying robot: http://www.pezheads.net/dwelch/ebay/KilgoreSpaceGun1.JPG The reverse side depicts the Atlas Satellite Launcher: http://www.pezheads.net/dwelch/ebay/KilgoreSpaceGun2.JPG Both these toys are new to me. Has anyone else seen them? Image posting assistance greatly appreciated. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe K. Posted March 27, 2011 Author Share Posted March 27, 2011 . As always, THANKS, Doc ! And THANKS also for stepping up to the plate and being this year's "point man" for Botstock VIII. BTW, I did some checking and found that "Whirling your Willie" in public could result in fines and/or imprisonment in most States in the Union, parts of Canada and some European countries! :lol: .

Joe K. Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 . Thought I'd bring this topic up once more to see if these close-up images might help to shed any new light on these two Kilgore toys: Count Down Magnetic Space Race Game (featuring Whirling Willie the Flying Robot): "Whirling Willie" the flying robot delivers satellite to rotating, numbered space station for scoring. Child controls robot launching by count down. Sturdy, colorful plastic construction - intriguing SPACE AGE appearance and action!" Atlas Satellite Launcher Makes the SPACE AGE come alive! "Beautiful red and white plastic 3-stage breakaway rocket with launching pad and two Styrofoam satellites. The satellite is launched and kept in orbit by blowing through mouthpiece. Easy to operate - practice enables satellite to be orbited up to 12 inches from launching pad! Rocket emits realistic "beep - beep" signals while satellite is orbiting." .

HUNTER Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 I just purchased Kilgore Count Down The Magnetic Space Race. Whirling Willie The Flying Robot in the box. Top flap of the box is missing. Was told this is next to impossible to find :) $$?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
