One of my favorite episodes was when David found a saucer that was damaged and unable to fly. He tried to get other people to see it but in the end he failed to prove it. Great series.
@@donaldwilliamson4150 Roy Thinnes was in the British movie called Dopplerganger or the American title Journey To The Far Side Of The Sun and played Major Holmes in the short lived series. From Here To Eternity based on the book and the original movie back in the 50's. I know. Useless trivia.
Bummer David didn't have Rocky Jones to help get that saucer up and running again. He seems to have a knack in fixing flying saucers. th-cam.com/video/Zdl3CczvH9s/w-d-xo.html
It wasn't damaged. Vincent and an amateur Ufologist (Dabney Coleman) killed all the the aliens but one and then ended up in a standoff with more aliens briught in by the survivor in the episode "The Saucer"
This is what I have waited five decades to see. That was how long ago it was that I first bought and built the kit. This is really great work, and my congratulations on your efforts. My memory is foggy on the kits layout. After my "tour" of the ship, it makes me wish I had bought two of them, one to make then, and one to make after perfecting my craft as a modeler. I always suspected there had to be a second deck. I thought there would have to be, and I would have expected a large cargo hatch. On my original build, I etched one in with an x-acto Knife tool. Again, great work, and best of luck in your future endeavours.templerman
The Aurora plastic model had some of these rooms inside. At least one episode had them inside the saucer walking around. If you look closely at the pilot and every episode intro, the saucer never drops it's landing gear, even though it touches down. Great computer simulation of the interior. Well done!
The plastic model also has four rooms instead of five, with a small corridor instead of a reactor room in the center. I suppose these changes were introduced later in the TV series? Just curious.
One of the BEST sci-fi shows from the sixties! I own the entire series on DVD... (couldn't pass it up)... and another show which had a musical soundtrack in common with it: "The Outer Limits!" Did you know that there are free paper model versions of both this saucer and Harryhausen's spinning masterpiece available online? Your digital rebirth of these awesome vehicles is OUTSTANDING!!!
Yes, Dominique Fortier - did music for both series. In the Outer Limits episode “The Forms of Things Unknown” I found the background music particularly similar to Invaders themes. That’s the one where David McCallum is a creepy inventor with an alleged time machine - a bunch of clocks and strings in a closet. Which ends up working.
There was one episode where they showed the inside, actually a walk around. And just as here, it somehow had a hundred times more interior space than it could have, based on its exterior size.
Dear Michael: Written, accurate narration is greatly enhanced when accurate detailed graphics of the spacecraft in question are presented when these presentations are made to fans of science fiction movies of which l am but one. The Invaders TV series "Flying Disc" is in my humble opinion, an excellent depiction of the '60's interplanetary starship which could have been larger in overall size. The landing, the hover and takeoff phases of flight could have produced more noise and emissions from its propulsion unit? emissions? Otherwise, David Vincent, our interpid Architect has left a fantastic legacy.
It looks exactly like an upside down cereal bowel,the sound effect is the same one from Earth vs the Flying Saucers and I didn't see any toilets maybe they stick their butts out an airlock when they gotta go or maybe they don't have a holes😅
Amazing ! So very close to the real ones described by Bob Lazar of Area 51 and of the ones recovered by the Military in 1947 and later on. Great TV series and I watched it in the 60's. The sound track is still very cool.
@@graciemaemarie11jones16Have you seen the exact Saucer type that Adamski photographed suddenly appear decades later on Google Earth. It's pictured in glowing red coloration and it looks to real to have been faked!?
Thank you lugodoc for this nice CAD document, it is very well made and brings me back to a much younger and innocent world (before Vietnam call). Great music track, thank you again, Ciao, L
Dear Maurice: You are absolutely correct. Not wanting to digress here but Lost in Space, Jupiter Two external shape, in my humble opinion is too small to be practical with all the gear it has to carry. I know it's all science fiction but you need to be practical to provide realism. For me, the flying saucers featured in Earth versus the Flying Saucers represents the external size packing more internal volume l would use for the Jupiter Two. However, l just love "The Invaders" saucer. It's external physical size is most practical to be more believable. What would our Intrepid Architect David Vincent aka. Roy Thinned say to this? Is there a full scale mock-up / prop. somewhere, as used in the TV Show?
I've never seen the show, but if I can find episodes on YT, I'll be sure to check it out. Great design for a UFO flying saucer, and kudos to this excellent 3D rendering.
EXCELLENT WORK! It's a joy to behold and explore through! Love the series and the functionality of the saucer's 5-fold design. The addition of the 'brainwashing room' was well done. I'd like to see similar videos done for: 1. The Jupiter ll. 2. The Forbidden Planet Saucer. 3. The saucer from 'Earth vs. The Flying Saucers'. 4. 'The Day the Earth Stood Still' saucer. 5. All Star Trek ships. 6. All Star Wars ships. 7. All DUNE ships. 8. All UFO ships. 9. The Seaview. 10. U.N.C.L.E. headquarters. 11. Fireball XL-5. 12. The Travis Walton UFO. 13. The Roswell UFO. 14. The 'Sports Model' saucer. 15. The Triangle UFO. 16. A diorama model of the landing scene from the Invaders intro.
Gary Edwards I've done 1, 2, 3, & 8 (a UFO) and they're on this channel. I'd love to do Fireball XL5, probably next. Some spaceships are impossible to get right because of their inherent contradictions, like the Space 1999 Eagles. Star Bug should be a practical one to do as well. I'm watching a Red Dwarf special on Dave as I type....
WOW!.......That was really far out ......great work! I believe there was a INVADER scale model for sale back in the 60's. That was one I should have got but never did. They were very hard to find.
I bought that model when it came out and I still have it. Some of the flimsy little landing spikes on the bottom of the landing gear have broken off but otherwise it's fairly intact. Even when I bought it, aged about ten, I was disappointed that the internal bulkhead detail was based on a four-fold geometry, when it should obviously have been five-fold like everything else about their hardware. How many modern spaceship designs are so elegant, or inspire so many decades of fascination?
The first issue was the original Aurora release, back in 1968. Aurora reissued the kit in 1975, A welcome reissue not seen for nearly 40 years. It’s simple to build, but rates as another to add to the growing range of flying saucer kits from Atlantis Models. There are plenty of other UFO kits out there too. www.scalemodelnews.com/2015/08/beware-invaders-are-coming-from-atlantis.html
The soundtrack at 2:07 seems to be from the "Panic" Episode when the spaceship encounters Robert Walker Jr before he reaches the craft. Walker was the son of Robert Walker Sr of Hitchcock's movie fame, "Strangers on a Train"--a thriller. Jennifer Jones is his mom--her movie fame was "Song of Bernadette."
Did George Adamski get the idea from tv or did tv get the idea from George or did the aliens get the idea from both of them? The Outer Limits, Please stand by!
It always seemed to me that the exterior dimensions of the saucer wasn’t big enough to fit the interior shots from the show. I truly loved this show when it came out. I was like 14 at the time.
Hola , Lugodoc . El platillo volador es más grande por dentro que por fuera. ¿ Es acaso la nave Tardis , de la serie inglesa " Dr. Who" ( " El Doctor Misterio " ) ? Video de revelación mal hecho - creo yo . Un abrazo. Saludos desde Chile , Sudamérica.
How come the aliens are always looking over their left shoulder? No toilet, no galley, no Holodeck? This has got to be a short range craft. The mother ship must be hiding in Saturns rings.
Beautifully rendered !!!! I would love to get blue prints And dimensions scratch build 1/35th scale saucer This is incredible How big was the saucer suppose to be ?
In the episode "The Enemy" a ship crashes and the one alien survivor vaporized the entire ship with one of their own guns. Imagine if David Vincent and a few others had a few of these guns? The damage they could inflict on the Invaders is incalculable.
This Was AWESOME.... I agree....I think towards the end of this Video....He should of Had one of the Aliens fall Off the Ladder and Hit the Ground and then Burn Up....That Would of Made this Video Absolutely COMPLETE....that was One of my Favorite Parts as Well....Still Though OutStanding Job on This
Like the Dr. Who Tardis. Much larger inside than outside. Interesting that the aliens do Earth style decor. And - padlocked cases ? Who is going to steal anything ? Radio room ? In a faster-than-light ship ?
This appears to be strictly a short-range craft. There are no crew quarters or waste processing facilities. I don't think they ever got into it in the series, but I wonder if there was an advance base on the moon or elsewhere in the solar system. In Have Spacesuit Will Travel, Robert Heinlein has invading aliens have a base on the moon and a larger outpost on Pluto.
How big have you made the interior? It's not the Tardis, it should be more like a shuttle craft coming from a much larger carrier craft. They don't ,or shouldn't need any kind of fripperies like heads (toilets, showers or general ablutions), these are purely practical vehicles designed for temporary jump stops, not for long range missions or extended stays... Of course, that's just my idea. It was the 60's, they just wanted to tell a story. Worked okay for me at 9 or 10 years old.
Not sure how safe these craft are. In one episode a dying invader vaporizes the entire ship with a hand vaporizer! Imagine if David Vincent got his hand on one of their guns?
I like the idea of the repetition of the unit of 5. Instead of an even number, they plumped for an odd one (legs & underside lights). That was clever. It makes the thing look even weirder (and alien) than it does already. I also like your subdivision of the internal levels into 5. The hand weapons (that gave humans a cerebral haemorrhage) also had 5 lights within the circular shape. Perhaps this numerical thing was supposed to have some significance (which was not explored)? Two things I would change though - not wishing to criticise your otherwise excellent model - the top narrow lights on the saucer apparently total 10 (smaller slits), and I think the central area on the lower level should house some kind of (inaccessible) 'engine' chamber. But apart from that - your video is brilliant!
Also - and I am guessing here - the fact that these saucers are actually quite small (and don't appear to have any long-term 'sleep' or stasis type accommodation) suggests to me that they are some kind of shuttle. They can perhaps traverse distances across the solar system - but not the much longer distances between galaxies? So the ship we see in the intro credits, passing the Moon as it heads towards the Earth, has perhaps come from a larger 'mothership'; or maybe even a temporary transiting facility based upon Mars?
One of my favorite episodes was when David found a saucer that was damaged and unable to fly. He tried to get other people to see it but in the end he failed to prove it. Great series.
I remember that show from when I was a kid I've always hoped someone would do a remake and do it as well as the original or better maybe Netflix

This is great! Well done. Thanks.
Cool ! When I was a kid I used to watch reruns in the 70s late at night and I would tape them on cassette the music was very spooky.
Just like in Lost In Space there’s more interior structure than can possibly fit in the exterior shape and dimension of the spacecraft.
Doctor Who never had any problem with that!
So, maybe the TARDIS isn't just a Gallifreyan concept. Or, it could just be hammerspace.

transneural right, they just had to re-energize themselves every so often, hence--no poo poo pa doo
Love that show brings back memories
Some of the inside of the craft reminds me of a particular Star Trek episode...
On the outside, it reminds me of the, " sports model" Bob Lazar described. There was a model of it at one time too.
So, where are the restrooms, bedrooms, galley, and engine room?
engine room top center, everything else is handled by the regeneration tubes.
Excellent. Well done indeed :)

Bonsoir je vous dis un grand merci , Thanks :)
The best TV series about UFO. I have built the Atlantis model of the saucer two years ago and is great.
The Jupiter 2 should have been bigger like that ship to fit the Chariot and Space Pod!
This is one show they should bring back. With Roy Thinnes still alive.
Love the details and though put into the outer and inner of the saucer....A great series that was not to be continued... Peace
I'm impressed. Thank You.
We all need to keep our brains clean!
Beautifully rendered !!!!
I would love to get blue prints
And dimensions scratch build 1/35th scale saucer
This is incredible
How big was the saucer suppose to be ?
It's a crying shame that they were never able to show the landing legs coming down or going up. They just all of a sudden were.
Very cool! Thanks for the posting!
That alien on the ground looks like he has set up a BBQ grille.

Grande trabalho, muito bem feito. Parabens !
No restrooms or showers? Great video and awesome show. When I was a kid I couldn’t wait to watch the invaders die and burn up.
They weren't actually humanoid, but a maddeningly horrible fungus. This was sort of a truck, I gather.
This Was AWESOME....
I agree....I think towards the end of this Video....He should of Had one of the Aliens fall Off the Ladder and Hit the Ground and then Burn Up....That Would of Made this Video Absolutely COMPLETE....that was One of my Favorite Parts as Well....Still Though OutStanding Job on This
All alien planet-wide invasions are American based! ;-D Loved these UFOs whenever I took the subway. They sound the same ;-)
Well why not? All giant monsters destroy Tokyo!
That flying soucer is just a german Haneoubu's copy !! with some little differences of course
I was a little kid when this came on television 📺and the music scared the he'll out of me
Had the model as a kid on of my favorites.
Fascinating. I think from the Aurora model it was about 60 feet diameter?
Du bon boulot 👍 je vous dis bravo !
which CAD software did you use?
A starship like this one ought to carry ship-mounted armaments, and a weapons console ought to be on the bridge.
I bought the kit of the saucer when I was a kid and assembled and painted it. It was all plastic pieces.
Extraordinario....
I've still got two of these saucers from a mid 70s model kit.
Like the Dr. Who Tardis. Much larger inside than outside. Interesting that the aliens do Earth style decor. And - padlocked cases ? Who is going to steal anything ?
Radio room ? In a faster-than-light ship ?
What CAD tool did you use to create the walk-through? Nice!
This appears to be strictly a short-range craft. There are no crew quarters or waste processing facilities. I don't think they ever got into it in the series, but I wonder if there was an advance base on the moon or elsewhere in the solar system. In Have Spacesuit Will Travel, Robert Heinlein has invading aliens have a base on the moon and a larger outpost on Pluto.
Awesome!
where you got music and sounds like this .......
If you could climb up the ladders you would find yourself stuck in the control console... 😂😂😂
Bigger on the inside than the outside.
Do you have this 3D model for sale anywhere?
Amen! I want to give my Monogram Saucer an interior; the Alpha 7 I'm planning, too...
Was this modeled in sketch? Can you offer this complete model for sale?
I wish i kept that model spaceship back then..
Had the model, three of them actually. They were great to attack my cities in my bedroom.
Great work, but where are the space toilets?
LOVE THIS TV SHOW.

Of course, that's just my idea. It was the 60's, they just wanted to tell a story.
Worked okay for me at 9 or 10 years old.

They were fungi- no bathrooms needed.
@@Pygar2 Oh, yeah...drat you, fungi!
Randomly clicked on this. If you ever upload something this noisy and loud again, we gone tussle, on God!
Not sure how safe these craft are. In one episode a dying invader vaporizes the entire ship with a hand vaporizer! Imagine if David Vincent got his hand on one of their guns?
with the brainwashing room, does it do hair too????
I like the idea of the repetition of the unit of 5. Instead of an even number, they plumped for an odd one (legs & underside lights). That was clever. It makes the thing look even weirder (and alien) than it does already. I also like your subdivision of the internal levels into 5. The hand weapons (that gave humans a cerebral haemorrhage) also had 5 lights within the circular shape. Perhaps this numerical thing was supposed to have some significance (which was not explored)? Two things I would change though - not wishing to criticise your otherwise excellent model - the top narrow lights on the saucer apparently total 10 (smaller slits), and I think the central area on the lower level should house some kind of (inaccessible) 'engine' chamber. But apart from that - your video is brilliant!
Also - and I am guessing here - the fact that these saucers are actually quite small (and don't appear to have any long-term 'sleep' or stasis type accommodation) suggests to me that they are some kind of shuttle.

So the ship we see in the intro credits, passing the Moon as it heads towards the Earth, has perhaps come from a larger 'mothership'; or maybe even a temporary transiting facility based upon Mars?
Perhaps the Invaders used a base 5 number system instead of base 10 like we do? The Ancient Maya used a base 5 system as well.
Crew quarters? Engines/drives?
Are you selling the 3D model anywhere?
Love it
The "cargo" hold seem remarkably empty AND each box secured with a padlock? How earth retro for aliens.
