Introducing Martin Freeman as the Impossible Man in a role made famous by Jimmy Durante!

Major Matt Mason . . . so many times I recall my parents saying that we couldn't afford the sets: space station, lander, walkers and shuttle. Sigh. Picked up a few as an adult, but toys sitting on the shelf is not quite the same as playing with them as a kid!
