Very futuristic and oh sooo British !

England was very technologicaly enclined in their toy industry, and it is no wonder that the big names like Britains, Johillco, Charbens or Cherilea that produced toy soldiers started sooner or later to produce their futuristic lines...

... note that the plastic copy of the Cherilea spaceman is about a head higher than the original lead soldier.
