Yay! The Commando Cody thing is up! Pity it's the last one, though. Gotta be, even though I didn't actually see the Commando get personally blasted this week. I mean, Is This The End For is kind of implied.

By the way, anyone know about those helmets the moon-men wore? (Demonstrating my need to get out more), I notice that it's the same kind the Robot Monster wore. That's not a Mk. V hard hat. I think I've only seen this kind of helmet in Robot Monster and here.

The suits looks a lot like the ones from "Destination Moon" from the year before. But I'm just going on memory, whichever one was the color movie, either DM or "Rocketship XM"

It was interesting to see the suit partially opened at the neck showing how the helmet attached.

Oh yeah, and Cody is completely doomed this time! No way out, Ted will never get back in time

It does look like Ro-Man's helmet too, Hollywood probably gave those a workout in the 50s.

Here's a link from our gracious host's own site that shows the Destination Moon folks in their suits, the knees, elbows, and necks look especially Radar-Man-like.
