Aurora Plastics Stickers
Description: The Aurora Plastics Corporation introduced the A/FX (Aurora Factory Experimentals, later simply "AFX") line of slot cars, track sets, and related accessories in 1971. Aurora designed the AFX cars with an interchangeable car body, allowing users to use a single chassis for multiple models. The original '71 A/FX chassis utilized an updated version of Aurora's "Thunderjet 500" line, popular in the '60s. AFX introduced the innovative "G-Plus" in-line motor chassis in 1976. This design allowed the use of narrow, open-wheel Formula 1 style bodies, something not previously possible with traditional slot car chassis designs. AFX continued production, releasing multiple innovative products until the company was forced into receivership in 1983.
Description: Introduced in the early 1970s by Aurora Plastics Corporation, Skittle Pool was a tabletop billiards game that put a unique spin on traditional pool, replacing the familiar cue stick with a swinging ball suspended from a metal frame. Players aimed a stationary cue ball using a rotating mechanism, then released the pendulum-like striker to send the cue ball crashing into a rack of miniature billiard balls. Played on a compact, green-felt table measuring approximately two feet square, Skittle Pool offered much of the challenge of traditional billiards without requiring a full-sized pool table. The game was part of Aurora's popular Skittle series and was famously promoted by Don Adams, best known for playing Maxwell Smart on TV's Get Smart.
