Comet is a small UK model maker which is known for its extensive
vacuum formed and white metal kits. The company which is
still active today produced two white metal kits of
interest to Lost in Space collectors. A 5cm diameter Jupiter
2 which formed part of it's SF spaceship series called "SF Mini
Metals" and a 7cm Robot from a series called "Mini Metal Robots."
These white metal kits are typically solid and require little
if any assembly and gluing.
In the early 90's the company also produced a popular vacuum formed
Robby the Robot kit (1:8 scale) featuring white metal and etched
brass parts.
