A superb Christmas present was lunar lander or the Johnny Astro. With the header of "Launch & Fly your own space craft with no wires or connections", this air powered device allowed you to maneuver your spaceship around the room. It was a battery operated control center with a fan attached on the end that you can move with control stick. You could also control the power or thrust of the fan.
The idea was to attach a cradle and capsule to the space vehicle (baloons) and using the fan, guide the spaceship across the room to a molded plastic lunar landing base. Excellent fun and very tricky to use properly.
