Another set of previously seen photos, this time it's the second of the Sixteen 12 Eagle episode sets, featuring the Glider as seen in the second season Space:1999 episode, 'Immunity Syndrome'.
Another limited edition set, which came out in January, 2019.
The highly detailed (and glossy) glider is lovely addition, and attaches magnetically to the pod , through the girder superstructure.
The pod did suffer from some over weathering issues which certainly did spoil the overall look , but it didn't stop the model being a sell out on the Sixteen 12 website.
Beautiful photo shoot, as usual, and that Glider is just sublime! Do not recall that episode, but that is one incredible model!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ziggurat. The episode has the Alphans landing on a planet which has an adverse effect on metal and electronic circuitry. The Glider is made from a type of carbon fibre, and is used to take Maya and Helena to meet up with the stranded landing party. It does, however crash land.
DeleteThe Glider design is based on a NASA prototype, and is technically a lifting body.
