Description
Starcruiser – Airfix kit 07170-9, first issued in 1978, Series 7, listed in the Airfix catalogues from 1978 to 1984. Later renumbered 9 07170.
Space fiction is taken to new dimensions with this exciting four-in-one kit. A multi-mission spaceship, Starcruiser can operate as an independent self-contained unit, having as it does, a reconnaissance pod, an intercepter, an attack unit and a command base, each one detachable and capable of being used separately. All these are in the kit making play and diorama situations almost limitless. Starcruiser is a new concept combining the experience of Sci-fi originator Gerry Anderson and the expertise of Airfix designers. – Taken from the 15th edition catalogue (1978)
16th edition catalogue (1979), listed as Starcruiser 1 from Starcruiser.
