David Sisson Models Video 3: Eagle 1 Filming Miniature. 

I like the fluffy quality control supervisor at the end.

Always liked the eagles authentic and practical look, somewhere I still have my Airfix eagle in all its glory.

still remember when i was kid in 70´s ..... also the LEGO came out, and as kid i was often build.... this eagle space ship. Still iconic for me.... thx for memorys.

Hi David, a few years ago you made my absolute childhood dream come true when you let me have a really good look, we were at a small show where you brought this with you, when you let me pick it up I was utterly gobsmacked, never forget that....Every Saturday morning without fail I watched Space1999. Not that long ago I had an office at Pinewood and always walked passed L & M stage where they filmed some scenes aswell as Bray Studios. Fairly recently I even had a hand in Props on a sci-fi TV series building an escape pod. Magic stuff

Gotta love that "This Episode" intertitle

I'm so glad that historic model is in such great hands! She looks beautiful 😍

What a brilliant model and what a nice guy.

Much appreciated David. I am a big fan of the show and after all this time, it’s great to see the finer details of simply the best looking spacecraft ever designed. Brian Johnson, Nick Alder and the team were so skilled to be able to produce something of this quality. This is legendary and it’s comforting to know that this particular model has ended up with a rightful and proud owner. Thank you for posting this.

I’m such a fan of Space 1999, can’t get enough! Great video

I saw the first episode in 1975. Fan of Space 1999 since this day. Yes, the eagle is the best Space ship of sci-fi.

good memories from watching this as a 13 year old when it was first broadcast, it was quite ground breaking and advanced , a TV version of 2001, nothing like it on TV at that time and it still stands up today, all shot on 35mm film with in camera practical effects, no artificial looking Cgi in those days, I loved the shots made "outside" the Moonbase involving the Eagle, I think my favourite character was Aussie Eagle pilot Alan Carter, he could be relied upon to save the day with his brilliant pilot skills! I did have the Airfix kit, it was maybe about 9 inches long if memory serves me, I built that kit up and spent a lot of time making it look real, well like the one in the TV show I mean!!!, adding lots of surface wear and detail and making it look a bit dirtier than the clean white plastic that the kit was made of.! Thanks for posting this, really fascinating insight into the actual model used!!

Nice video David, good walk around of the Eagle.

David, I congratulate you on your beautiful collection and original models. Your video is really comprehensive and informative. Never seen an eagle in such detail.

Thank you David for the guided tour of the Eagle Transporter. It appears to be in good hands to press on into the second quarter of the 21st century!

Thank you so much for the new high quality version. It's not every day you can get up and personal with an actual studio prop. I absolutely love the Eagle design. It just seems like it would really work. I love the modular utilitarian design, it just looks like it's built to get a job done. Thanks again, to me this was real star of the show.

Thanks for sharing.

I still love this fiction flick.What I would have gave for an Eagle scale in my childhood?

Awesome video David, great photo's, as always thank you for sharing !! :-)

GREAT !!!

I’m amazed at the craftsmanship and ingenuity of the model makers. Thanks for the video!!
