Yes, and a year or so ago got the whole series on DVD - still great fun.


I also had an XL5 which you could catapult into the air and it would come down by parachute. I also have some old copies of TV21 the comic and still have the XL5 and Stingray kits you could get for half-a-crown plus so many Zoom wrappers as advertised in TV21.


I have a number of old Dalek annuals as well!


Okay I can remember the following TV series:


Space Patrol (Gamma rays on Yobba rays on!)
Supercar
Fireball XL5
Stingray
Thunderbirds
Joe 90
Captain Scarlet


Am I missing any?


Now the most formative was probably an old Eagle annual which had plans for a small speedboat about a foot long. Built it and the bug bit and the rest is history!!


Cheers

Wow - interesting that this thread popped up again - I've been watching loads of Gerry Anderson tech videos in the last few days - mostly fan-fiction stuff.

I found this video of building an Eagle Transporter   https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s8uIoghrrjo

Love your Eagle Transporter, my other half thought I was mad the other year when I got all the Space 1999's on DVD, such a good series and such a blast from my childhood.
