Noriko Takaya Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) I am probably one of the biggest fans of that dilapidated 70's era Star Trek rip-off that you will ever know, and the Eagle Transporter is probably one of my most favorite of science fiction space craft. I wish I had known about these posters before now. Just look at some of the detail that was put into these. Has anyone out there who is a fan of the show have them? If so, what are they like up close? Edited January 4, 2006 by Noriko Takaya Quote
Sarensaas Posted January 4, 2006 Posted January 4, 2006 I am a fan of the Eagle too. I don't have the poster, but I bought the Ertl model kit of the Eagle rereleased a few years ago. These posters would be great for detailing them. I don't think the original 44 inch filming model had as much detail and weathering as these do. Quote
Graham Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 Great art of the Eagle from Space 1999. Graham Quote
Knight26 Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 I will always have a soft spot for the Eagle, such a classic, and believable design Quote
Guest Bromgrev Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 Great show, apart from Maja the shapeshifter. And you can't beat the old Eagle - nice posters. Quote
Graham Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 1/48 Scale Eagle Replica. Nice, but way too expensive IMO. And some cheaper 12" Eagles. Graham Quote
Rider Faiz Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 I don't remember much about the show...but I DO remember a neighboor kid having the toy of the ship and him and I playing w/ it a few times. -RF Quote
Graham Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 Great show357610[/snapback] Great show if you can ignore the extremely bad science of the moon being blown out of orbit and then encountering a new planet or new alien race each week. Didn't bother me as a kid, but now it's a bit too much suspension of disbelief. Graham Quote
Graham Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 Heh and the laser pistols that looked like staple guns. Graham Quote
Beltane70 Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 I remember fondly, the large Eagle toy from Matyel that I used to have when I was a kid. Quote
robokochan Posted January 5, 2006 Posted January 5, 2006 I had the Eagle toy as well when I was a kit. The really big one. However I was one of those kids that needed realizm...so as time went on it became "battle-damaged" by way of a lighter. Soon it became so damaged that it had an encounter with the sun (i.e. Big Fire) and met it's final demise. Man those were great times. Back on topic...those posters really kick butt! I want one!

Noriko Takaya Posted January 6, 2006 Author Posted January 6, 2006 Heh and the laser pistols that looked like staple guns.Graham 357621[/snapback] You mean this one? This is one I scratch built about ten years ago. I even have the commlock communicator device. I remember fondly, the large Eagle toy from Matyel that I used to have when I was a kid. You know, I also had that same toy set-up. It came with three figures, Koenig, Bergman, and Russell, and had the stunguns and a laser rifle. There was also a winch where you could lift stuff, and the command module separated from the main body and linked with the rear engines. I had that thing for years up until I went into the Corps and then it mysteriously disappeared... Quote
