Major Matt Mason (commercial, 1968)

Meet Major Matt Mason, Mattel's man in space, and the bravest astronaut yet. He lives on the moon, we may all be there soon, and he gets around with a jet. Until Sergeant Storm in his red uniform, Major Matt worked all alone.

Now together they face the dangers of space and seek to learn the unknown. The machines that they drive see almost alive as they transport the adventurous pair. The new astrotract whits through the black and fireboat even goes where they meet Captain Laser.

His space carob plays with energy stored from the stars. He's a giant, it's true, but a friendly one who spent his boyhood on Mars. An exciting place, the world of space, as all the astronauts know.
