Atlantic Falcon Space Interceptor

Italian toy-production had some great design of their own. They did of course do the licensing game (Goldrake, Harlock, ...) but soon found out they could make something bigger and better inhouse. The Atlantic Spaceman and Spacecraft line is such a thing. Read more about it here (in Italian :)

This particular craft was available already fully built (like here) or as a build-it yourself model kit.
