Today I'm working on a vintage and rare toy, USAF GEMINI X-5 space ship, made in Japan in 1960's by Masudaya Toys Co.
I bought it on Ebay for 30 $.
The seller told me that he didn't know if it worked but by disassembling it, I had the bad surprise to discover it had already been modified before.
The engine was missing and the bulbs no longer worked.
It took me a month to restore but it was worth it, watch till the end to see this beautiful old toy in action.
Thanks a lot for watching !
