Dischi Volanti - OVNI's / UFOs
This was a freebee somewhere (possibly potato chips / crisps ?) in Italy in the 1970's. These came with different name of planets.

Oh no you didn't !

| Capitan Futuro, Mattel, 1980, Italy |
This is the pinacle of cost-cutting design in the story of Italian toy-making. You take the surplus of previous diecast success (Goldrake), change head and torso, keep the rest, restyle, repaint and voilà...
I agree that Popy's figurine had it all wrong due to the lack of details and wrong colours, but this is on another level. Mary Shelley beware ! You have some serious competition !

Wonder Woman's ride ?
| Wonder Woman car, Corgi Juniors, 1979, UK |
This one was based on a real vehicle (or at least prototype) : the 1969 Autobianchi A112 Runabout, designed by Bertone.
Corgi, Matchbox and Mebetoys made a number of versions in their bigger 1/43 scale, but none for Wonder Woman, she only got access to the smaller version in the Corgi Junior line in approx. 1/64.
Strangely enough, I don't recall seeing Lynda Carter in one of those... An I remember seeing her in an invisible plane !
