You'll soon be able to buy a $60,000 personal jet that's being designed by a renowned Lockheed Skunkworks engineer.

Planet Robot Limited Edition Space Explorer

Space Explorer
Planet Robot manufactures beautiful limited edition reproductions of the 1950s Yonezawa Space Explorer tin robot. Each series is restricted to a production run of 200 units or less (it looks like the total production run was 1000 pieces). The robots are machine stamped and hand assembled - I was quite surprised to see photos of workers bending tin with pliers, although it helps to explain why less labor-intensive plastic toys are the norm these days.

Prices range from $93 to $103. These were manufactured in October 2005, so very limited quantities of some variations are still available. Treat this as a once in a lifetime opportunity to create your own clockwork army.
