We've probably all seen the BBC clip filmed at Palitoy circa 1982, but this one here is a new one on me. Courtesy of ABC news, here's some footage of Kenner boxing our favourite space toys.

Thank you for finding & sharing the video.
The predictions in the video regarding "in 50 years time" were not far wrong.
