* Astro's stunned reaction to the first time his rocket boots fire, including a hilarious expression and a wonderfully prompt (and pretty harsh) slap to his own face.
** And then as shock becomes delight he tries to zip off heroically - only to briefly ''forget how to power the jets'' and, on reactivating them, slam himself backwards into a building and then straight up through its stone facade.
* A soldier trying to use windshield wipers when Astro crashes into his ship. Astro's look of sheer annoyance is priceless.
