The
year is 1997. Space travel has become routine. There is a regular excursion to
Mars on the S.S. (Space Ship) Mars Liner class rocket. This is not an angular
and rectangular design but a sleek and graceful craft that's all first class. A similar replica greets visitors to the Tomorrow Land section at Disneyland which opened in 1955. The sc heme of markings has changed with every sponsorship change, and I think that the Mars Liner even disappeared in the 80's but is back in it's rightful place in Tomorrow Land.I found this kit on a back shelf of my local hobby shop gathering dust. It only cost a couple of dollars and I think it was an original. I just had to build it though, sadly the decals all turned to dust! The only survivor was the one around the door. Mark McClellan |
