From 1974 to 1994 Magic Kingdom guests blasted off into
Tomorrowland's stratosphere aboard the Tomorrowland Star Jets.
Located high above Tomorrowland atop the Wedway PeopleMover (later
renamed Tomorrowland Transit Authority) structure, a flight in a Star
Jet was one of the Magic Kingdom's most exhilarating attractions!
When the attraction was re-themed to become the Astro Orbiter in the
mid-1990's, most of the Star Jet vehicles crash-landed in the scrap
heap. We know of only one other in private hands (that in the
collection of Hollywood agent Richard Kraft).
Here we are pleased to present a genuine piece of Walt Disney's Magic
Kingdom: A rare surviving Tomorrowland Star Jet! This
authentic Disney ride vehicle once proudly flew above Walt Disney World
and is now cleared for approach to your spaceport. It is
constructed of fiberglass and steel, it measures approximately 9
1/4' long and 5' wide, weighing approximately 375 pounds. It
exhibits significant damage from hostile lifeforms, including
fiberglass separation along the sides of the nose cone and damage to the
rear rocket nozzles (see photos). Paint is overall scuffed and
scratched from collisions with space junk. Some parts may be missing.
Fiberglass repair and paint would go a long way toward bringing this
Star Jet back to glory.
Considered the ULTIMATE Disney theme park
souvenir, Disney ride vehicles have sold
for as much as $35,0000!
This Disney ride vehicle represents all the excitement and promise of
the future that Walt Disney meant Tomorrowland to encompass. To
some this wondrous object will bring back memories of fantastic youthful
summers at Disney World, squeezed into to one of these snug spaceships
with your Disney date; others will be reminded of some of the best times
ever spent with the family. Needless to say, we have only this one
Star Jet available. Item # 3685, $2995 including Southern
