I have bought this model, original of 1976, built by the centuri on the occasion of the visit of nick tate in italy.

very beautiful

Molto piacevole!

Nice build! I miss that show... I don't think I've seen it in over 20 years!

It's on DVD!

They are available from the A&E Network shop.

Amazon.com, also, has them.

I have the UFO series and Thunderbirds!

I just watched "the Dalotek Affair" last night!

Every September 13th I get together with 2 old high school friends and watch Breakaway.

Whats your favorite UFO episode?

I'd love to have one of these myself, as I am a huge SPACE: 1999 fan, and I have a 23" studio scale Eagle replica in my collection, as well as a 30" Hawk (from "War Games").

The Eagle rocket isn't very accurate at all, especially when compared to the X-wing or the Klingon Cruiser....but certainly a must have for 1999 fans and/or collectors.....

Dude this rocks!! Thanks for the link, I have not seen UFO in 30 years...

My wife is getting the collection for Christmas...I don't remember, was the show corny at all?

Johnnie

I don't know which is more worrying:

The fact that, after taking one look at the photo of the entire rocket, my first thought was "OK, what else can be stuck on top of a Fliskits Praetor?"

Or the fact that I don't buy kits, yet none of the folks here who do collect Jim's stuff had the same idea.

Series Trailer for UFO

First Season Intro for Space 1999 circa 1975

WOW! Haven't seen these in years! Thanks for the trip down memory lane guys.

Priceless.
Only one quibble- TV sound was never that good in 1970 and I couldn't find the tinny control.
UFO was best seen at the age of 9. I saw it again at 35 and the acting was terrible. Gerry Anderson used better looking puppets though.
A bit of a come-down from Ed Bishop's finest hour as the Orion pilot in '2001'.
