  • The work of Gerry Anderson, the man who brought us Thunderbirds, Fireball XL5, Stingray, UFO and Space 1999 - to name but a few - was featured in a special tribute at the National Space Centre in Leicester, England.
    I had a look round and also took the opportunity to talk to top model maker Richard Ashton about recreating the world of Gerry Anderson.

    Those models look amazing. I always thought us kids were short changed with the dinky toy version of Thunderbird 2. I always wanted a duplicate version used in the series !! 😂

    I went there. That day was childhood come true.
    I even got one of my old Thunderbirds comic books personally autographed by Alan's original voice actor.
    There was even photos of me with Alan's voice actor, other patrons dressed in Gerry Anderson related clothing and I even had a picture of me holding Thunderbird 6!
    I even attended a show which had Alan's voice actor and Destiny Angel's voice actress doing Q+As.
    Their favourite episodes of the shows they starred in were "Move and You're Dead" and "Seek and Destroy"

      Bonjour! Connaissiez-vous les séries d'Irwin Allen? C'est pour moi le Gerry Anderson américain. Malheureusement, en France, il a fallu attendre 1975 pour découvrir une série de Gerry Anderson (Space 1999); la série "Thunderbirds" n'a été diffusée pour la première fois qu'un an plus tard!!!

      Hi Matt - they usually hold this event for one weekend each year. Suggest you keep an eye on the NSC website or FB page. The event is well worth a visit. And the NSC itself is always worth a trip anyway. Closed at the moment of course.

    I've always wanted a set of these models T B 1 - 2 - 3 .
    Space 1999 Eagle - 1 now there's two ( 2 ) size's the original approximate 72nd scale and now the new larger 48 scale .
    I remember watching Stingray when I was a kid .
    But the ( who I thought was people ) in Super Car scared the hell out of me * I've been a good boy ever since . ( lol implied )😅
    Dang It ! ! ! ! !
    I want that Large Scale Fireball X L 5 .
    I'm working on a smaller size approximately 1:350 scale which fits in with my other 1:350 ships Enterprise CVN 65 , Enterprise NX - 01 , Enterprise 1701 ( no bloody A, B , C or D ) and my Klingon D - 7 .
    I've got to get a replacement for the Enterprise 1701 refit the kit parts got badly warped do to exstream heat this summer .
