CY GIRL Aurora is my one and only 1:6 sci-fi space female.  Her space suit and gear is "somewhere" while she is fine wearing a black bra, panty, and garter belt ensemble even though the ER doctor still can't figure out what is wrong with her.



UFO's Lt. Gay Ellis is displayed in a curio cabinet.

I don't own (or want to own) Col. Wilma Deering for reasons about the company behind her design and production (not PHICEN/TBL).

I too suggest the possibly of making your retro space girl's boots white for consistency, but the choice is yours.

Couldn't resist any longer. Had to track one down. I wasn't expecting to win the eBay auction, and had actually forgotten about placing the bid. Then a "payment reminder" showed up in my email inbox. So here she is, CyGirls "Aurora" High-Altitude and Orbital Flight Ops action figure:


As pictured, the figure is all stock. There is some flaking of the uniform fabric, but no holes... yet.

Black and white was a nice choice for the photos.

Great find Dave. I hope you enjoy yours as much as I enjoy mine.

Nice grab.

That’s a very cool poster, and the colors are awesome.

Yes, that's a great poster!

Very easily accomplished as long as you have a tripod.

Cave wall is simply crumpled brown paper. Lights are small multi-LED rectangular flashlights from a dollar store...cost $3.99 ea, I think One low to camera left with a magenta gel. the other hand held to the right and high with a blue gel filter.

Camera set on tripod at 1/4 second at f8.0 at 400 ISO. Used shutter release cable, bracketed the exposure to get the best one.
