Featured in the 1978 Japanese space opera "Message from Space," the "Galaxy Runner" was a one-man space fighter with variable-swept wings.  The sleek little craft was carried by a mothership, the "Liabe."

About the Kit

The "Galaxy Runner" was one of three nifty little model kits released by Entex in conjunction with the Japanese sci-fi movie "Message from Space," which was one of numerous lower-budget space operas produced in the wake of 1977's megahit, "Star Wars." 

This model was built from an original issue.
