The key to his appeal was that his backpack was his battery pack and when you seated him in one of his many space vehicles, the batteries in his pack powered the vehicle. Genius! I also loved that he looked like a boy, so I could fantasize that I too could be a spaceman like Billy. Great toy!Neal Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17053148427058126745noreply@blogger.com
