Lunokhod Moon Rovers
Discussion
I've just bought one of these fantastic old Soviet models of the famous Lunokhod Moon Rovers.
I've wanted one for years but they are very rare and expensive.
The Lunokhod rovers were a great achievement in remote unmanned exploration.
I assuaged my guilt about buying one on e-bay as this stunning example came from the Ukraine.
Some great documentaries on YT about the project.

$240 inc postage from Ukraine = ~ £190
I think it was a bargain as they are rare complete and in such good condition.
It works as well. Very well packed and arrived promptly.
