This
is the Land of the Lost Safari Shooter made by Larami in
1975.
I'm
not exactly sure why they called it a Safari Shooter, since
the Marshalls weren't on safari, and there wasn't much shooting
going on. I think "Land of the Lost Pinball game"
would have been a fine name instead.
Made
in Hong Kong, this is actually one of the more sturdy toys
produced for the show. The thick plastic construction of
the toy has held up remarkably well, and this one that is
still sealed in it's original bag looks like it came right
out of the warehouse.
Originally
selling for the $1.29 price imprinted right on the header
card, this is one of my favorite Land of the Lost items,
and a veritable bargain when it first sold.
