Captain 21

 I've got these two snaps in my auction archive.

He's definitely Captain Scarlet.

Century 21 SPV? 


SPC?

Why didn't they make a big plastic toy MSV? ☹️

  1. Yeah. the Century 21 SPC Captain Scarlet figure. I had the SPC and the Angel aircraft. I think the Century 21 SPV was very expensive though so we never got that. As to the MSV, it was only in a couple of episodes whereas the others were in virtually every episode. Didn't stop Dinky though, although Dinky never made a toy of the Angel.

    1. Yes, I had the Dinky MSV Yorkie, a gorgeous die-cast and I loved the little crates inside. Do you still own your C21 vehicles?

    2. Considering the C21 model shop created two MSVs for the opening episode, it's a shame the vehicle wasn't featured more in the series.
      It could have been used instead of the ubiquitous SPV in some situations.

    3. Do I still own them. Blimey I wish! I don't think any of us realised what we were doing when we or our parents threw our old toys away.

    4. I know. I lament nightly my Colourforms Outerspacemen being chucked out Yorkie! Why or why did we let them do it?
