    Shuttle Craft-Galileo 7.....................

    Thanks for the kind words to all. Actually, i scratch built this Shuttle Craft bout' 5 years ago with less then $35 i spent at Michael's. It's made out of cardboard and foam paper. It's extremely light and more of a beauty in person....as told to me by Trekkie fans that have seen it in action. The dash board is fully functional and the Galileo 7 is built to simulate flight (it could hold up to 11 Mego Star Trek figures). If FTC would make a vessel like this and sell it for $100 to $150.....i'm sure it will sell very well (i'll buy 2 of them).

    Early prototype pics of the interior from a bird's eye view....


    My buddies' son....posing with Galileo 7 in flight......Hence, the crew inside via the open door.


    Side shot of Galileo 7 with open door and Uhura inside.......


    Shuttle Craft a few feet of the ground (in the air) cruising near watery coast line......(Spoiler Alert!) at the other end of the beach....They will be ambushed by the Mego POTA Gorillas soldiers!!!





    The adventures are endless, and so much fun with the addition of a Shuttle Craft to "Boldly go where no Star Trek Mego figure has gone before".





    My Daughter carrying the Galileo 7......Hence, the working lights on the front of the rocket propulsion boosters.


    I'll be posting a Youtube video of the Galileo 7 in action soon......stand by!!!

                        That shuttle is fantastic! Love the photo looking through the front portal at Spock and also him at the door.
                        It's all good!
