Electronic Space Hawk Toy Spaceship in 1979
Here’s a special one for battlegrip.com reader microbry who has spoken of the Space Hawk toy before. (Question: Spacehawk or Space Hawk? Plaid Stallions confirms it is two words.) Well, it turns out that the toy was available in 1979, as shown in this newspaper ad from December 1, 1979. Great. Now I am reminded that this toy exists and that it looks amazing. eBay search . . . nothing.

Awesome! This is great as I have been trying to determine whether I first saw it in 1979 or 1980. Pretty sure now it was 79. I actually was planning to offer you one boxed (but used) spare I have after I shoot what I have soon. Will get in touch!
