Does the Gilligans Island prop qualify as a scale project?

[Tom Howe]

This space craft/capsule prop was used in a number of Gilligan's Island episodes and also on another show called "Its About Time".

I think it counts as concept scale!

Both shows are from the fertile mind of Sherwood Schwartz and filmed concurrently so they got a lot of mileage from this particular capsule. We are lucky that it didn't land and the Brady Bunch pile out of it.

They also appeared to have used it as a Russian,err, sorry, USSR space capsule after removing the rocket pods.

Any chance that made into any Twilight Zone or Outer Limits episodes?

All I could find in spacecraft wise in the Twilight Zone was the Cruiser C57 from Forbidden Planet used in the episode "Deathship" and then another episode (that escapes me) with Agnes Moorehead (Bewitched) as a lady being harassed by little spacemen.

There were a few with a regular capsule. The one that is like Adam and Eve, with the Earthman landing on a planet where there is one woman. Another one where three astronauts crash land on a planet, and one kills the others to survive, only to discover they actually landed back on earth (served as the inspiration for the ending of Planet of the Apes).

The Adam and Eve one was called "Probe 7, Over and Out." Can't find a picture of the spaceship.

The other one was "I Shot an Arrow into the Air." Same problem, no pic.

Probe Seven ship on the right looks similar to the crashed space ship in the The Outer Limits episode - "Specimen Unknown" on the left……………….here are some ore pics....look at the damage on the top fin.

I remember avidly watching both Gilligan's Island and It's About Time when I was growing up. I vaguely recall the capsule. Too long ago...
