I Do have EVERY MPC plastic kit offered, And had the Centuri Flying Eagle,
but it Crashed and broke into 2 pieces.
Wish I could find another of that one!!

I will get the New re-issues of the MPC Eagle & Moon Buggy
And yes, I know they never had one like it!
ALL Ground cars were 6-wheel buggy's!!
(Think Banana Splits!)

I have Every Paper model I could find from the series!!

Wish I could find the DVD set(s)!!!

Is this a Purchased kit? or download??

Do you have the vertibird Eagle?



Also, check the downloads section.


Aaaand...I have a complete set of the Mego Space 1999 figs...PLUS a custom Commander Koenig...by yours truly (sorry for the bad photos)...

Its a freebie that I had posted in the Downloads section here. Not sure if it was ever approved last time, so I just re-uploaded it. Just waiting on approval now.

File's been approved

Thanks Scott. You got to it before I could even ask you about reposting your model.

By the way, I did some rough math and figured if you made the rest of Moonbase Alpha to scale with this pad model it would be about 13 feet x 13 feet! Feel up to it?

Armorman: I had the Star Trek version of this when I was a kid. It met a gruesome end on the floor of the living room, but I still have the Enterprise part.

I still have my old actionfiguer sized eagle ship play set in the basement things 3 feet long

Well, if I ever finish unfolding Gearz's Alpha, and someone out there has a large-format printer...

The current version will have an overall footprint similar to a U.S. "C" size sheet.

Well, I have access to one of those printers, so you never know.

[ARMORMAN]

Looks like it's Gearz is based off the model kit and not the production model.

I haven't compared the Alpha pdo to the "real thing", or the MPC kit yet, but it should be fairly easy to modify to match the production model. IIRC, the main differences were the number of Pads, and their distance out from the main base.
