1950s Space Taxi

In the late 1950s space exploration enthusiast Willy Ley conceived a "space taxi" intended to move cargo and passengers between larger space vehicles and a space station. In 1959 Monogram produced a plastic model kit based on this concept. The kit was re-released several times in the following decades.

The 1950s concept Space Taxi is a poseable Poser figure, sized for Poser people. Created in Poser, it's compatible with DAZ Studio (see read-me for details).
