Rocketman Action Figure

It’s time to blast off into the retro stratosphere with the Rocketman Action Figure.

These days, heroes like Superman, Iron Man, and Green Lantern make flying seem like an everyday event, but there was a time when flying – both in fiction and in real life – was a big deal, so Hollywood latched on to the fascination with soaring through the air with a variety of non-super-powered heroes.

This action figure features the likeness of actor George Wallace, who portrayed Commander Cody in the 12-episode science fiction serial, Radar Men From The Moon. The Rocketman character appeared in numerous other adventures, although he wasn’t portrayed by Wallace in all the films, and now it’s possible to let the old-timey action hero have a few adventures in the 21st Century.
