Gerry Anderson Merchandise

Any 1 notice that a lot of merchandise comes out 4 the more popular of his shows e.g 'Thunderbirds' & not so much 4 the not so popular shows of his e.g 'Space Precient

I myself have a fair amount of 'Thunderbirds' stuff in my room

:blush:

yeah i've noticed that. you can also find quite a bit of stuff about for Captain Scarlet. i have to resort to ebay for Space Precinct articles.

 

[Bayleaf48]

That is a shame about 'Space Precient'

Not been able 2 find much 4 'Stingray' either

:blush:

 

[sarah2040]

no i haven't seen much for that either. recently both Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet have made quite a big comeback especially with young kids, i know my lil cousin is mad about both of them to the extent of having play outfits and tracey island, although it is probaby a passing phase it shows there is a market out there for these programs. i've probably confused you all now with my point (if you can pick it out through all my waffle!!!)

 

[Bayleaf48]

You haven't confused me at all sarah :rolly2:

4 me it's no passing phase with 'Thunderbirds' as I liked it since 1991

Slightly off topic , sarah how about going & registering your little ones at this thread so they can be introduced 2 every 1?

I've been over there and introduced my lil ones!

1991? wow! that's ages!! no wonder you have such a great knowledge of Thunderbids!!

 

[Bayleaf48]

That's good :rolly2:

I now it's a long time, even I'm surprised that I've remained a fan 4 this long

:blush:

 

[sarah2040]

I think the longest I've stayed a fan of a program is Space Precinct which has been 6 yrs now. the lack of merchandise is a pain and a lot of the stuff is again based on a younger fan base like bed covers and play outfits

 

[Bayleaf48]

True as some of the 'Thunderbirds' stuff is aimed at younger fans aswell

:blush:

I no longer have my original Captain Scarlet cars or S.H.A.D.O.W. vehicle but I do have a Space Precinct cruiser (for 6 inch figures), 12 inch Brogan action figure and Stingray (for 6 inch figures)
I think I have a few more items but I wish I still had the originals from my childhood

I have been looking around for space precinct stuff on the internet too. I have spotted an action figure of Lt. Brogan on eBay. Think i am going to watch that and see how it goes.

"Space precinct," isn't that on a par with a Wesley Crusher T-Shirt ?
