OMG I had that exact same toy when I was 10! I got it from the gift shop at the museum lol

Now it is on display in the same museum

To get the full effect they'll need to display it next to a pack of astronaut ice cream and some super cool geode rocks

"This is a sample of astronaut ice cream sold in our museum in 1987. Visit our gift shop to purchase your very own astronaut ice cream."

They still make it! It looks even cheaper than it did in the 90s.
