    I have no idea what it is, so ask the seller for more info.

    They have no idea what it is.

    It did come with a load of other stuff, including some NASA mission patches.

    Voila. That must make it a nasa apollo 13 model... and rare. ::facepalm1::

    Anyone know what this is?

    This is one of those things I'd totally buy if it were cheap enough as a gift for an annoying family member. Or for Trev.

    I was thinking it might be some 60's sex toy but if those arrows are directional, I can see a major design flaw.

    If it can be carved out it might make a nice bong.

    It looks almost like one of those glass figures you put on a light and as the light shines through it you can see a design. Like these... https://www.ebay.com/itm/162103094476Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

    So if no one knows what it is, does that make it modern art?
