Spaceman returning from a 30 year odyssey
Was going through some old lego from when I was a kid looking for the spaceman I remembered playing with. The only pieces I could find were a set of legs, torso, head, and helmet, all completely covered in black Sharpie.
Figured I had nothing to lose, so I started cleaning them with rubbing alcohol and cotton swabs. Pretty cool seeing the space logo reveal itself after being hidden for 30+ years.
Really wish I'd taken pictures before cleaning the helmet, legs and and front of the torso. It was even worse than it looks in the last photo.
Only missing two parts from the set, the front cone and control console.
