Six Million Dollar Man - Mission To Mars set (1976)

 
If you had one of these then you could dress him up to have a Bionic Adventure.  He'd look like this...
 
Although a much loved toy from my childhood I never actually had this particular set.  Its very cool.

  2. I love how it is labelled "Mission to Mars", but is clearly the Lunar surface.

    1. The TV add even says Mars, It's from 1976 of course which was all about Mars, Probably a last minute rebrand to cash in on those Viking Landers.
