Space 1999

[dogman67]

Anybody got any Space 1999 toys? If so, what you got?

I just sold some recently........

Coolest item was a Grand Toys "Hawk" --- actually an Eagle MOC

About the size of a Matchbox --- and it even had wheels

In the 80's I literally had hundreds of 1999 toys, it's the thing that got me into Mego collecting. Now I'm down to the palitoy figures, Konami Eagles, comics, magazines and about 30 paperbacks.

I miss some of the items like the Comlocks, chest radio and the Remco belt. Not to mention the Mattel Eagle and Moonbase playset.

I didn't know that ...

I never seen or even heard of Zantor's ship as a Roadstars ....

Pretty cool

I've got the Palitoy figures, Dinky Eagles, Amsco carboard cut out set, Mattel figures and Eagle, Mattel Whirlibird Eagle and some cool AHI stuff as well. I went a bit crazy over the last year but I'm glad I did.

Back in the 70s I had the Mattel figures of Landau, Bain, and the old man. I also had the vinyl playset. I forget if the figures came with it or not. I also had the Eagle with the three orange jumpsuit action figures. One of them was in a seated position so you couldn't use him for anything.

And I never saw an episode of Space: 1999.

I had the same figures and sets you had. That Mattel Eagle was something. I never knew mego had space 1999 figures till much later. The Mattel versions were pretty lame with not much articulation and no aliens.

Sigh* here it is 2008 and no Moon bases yet.

I loved Space 1999 as a kid and still enjoy it today. I used to watch it all of the time as a kid. I must have seen every episode as a kid. I originally had The Mattel figures of Commander Koenig, Dr. Russell and Prof. Bergman (sp?) and the Moon base Alpha play set. I had and still have an original record from Space 1999. "Some day" when I feel like it I will transfer the record over to CD and listen to it again. It is still in great shape. I always wanted the Space 1999 Eagle one, but for some reason did not ever get it as a kid. I can remember seeing the boxes lining a shelf in a store my parents used to take me to years ago. Since that time I do not remember what had happened to my original Space 1999 figures so I bought them again a little while back. I also bought up some of the CTVT Space 1999 figures. This time around I bought a Space 1999 Eagle one in the box. Some how I ended up with a DINKY Space 1999 Eagle One also. I don't remember how that came about. I am not complaining though.

p.s. I also have an original Space 1999 wax box.

Hello,

I have the three mattel Space 1999 figures. Though they are inferior to the mego/palitoy ones, I really dig them. The likenesses are good.

I have been toying with getting the CTVTs figures, but other than getting Maya, have resisted so far. I think it kind of bothers me that there is no Koenig or Russell in the bunch, since they were the two leads.
