The Apollo 15 crew had agreed with Van Hoeydonck that no replicas of \"Fallen Astronaut\" were to be made. After mentioning the statuette during their post-flight press conference, the National Air and Space Museum contacted the crew asking for a replica made for the museum. The crew agreed under the condition that it was to be displayed with good taste and without publicity.
Van Hoeydonck was contacted to make the replicas.
