I love Captain Scarlet, and only saw it for the first time about 5 years ago when it got a local DVD release.

I used to always hear about it from older kids when talking about the Thunderbirds, as I was growing up. It was frustrating, 'cos it was never repeated on TV here, unlike the Thunderbirds, which is always re-run.

I have a re-issue Corgi SPV, but that's about it as far as Captain Scarlet toys go for me.

I'm just going to drop this here and then quietly walk away...

It seems like the Japanese went NUTS for this show! There are TONS of products for it. I can understand it; the vehicles strike thet perfect balance of plausible and toyetic.

Yeah Japan or England, not much makes it over here.

The more recent figures which came out in the UK when the show was re-screened were nowhere near as good as the original one released back in 1967 when the show first aired. Considering how toy sculpting and technology in general has advanced the VIVID figures were a disappointment. This one from Pedigree Toys is one of the most sought toys of the period and rarely comes up in this condition although they do so keep watching the auction sites. Wish I had one.

That's super neat ... Looking at the hands, it looks like it's on a classic GI Joe body ?

I briefly owned the Pedigree Captain Scarlet, I bought it for a friend but wanted to keep it.

It's on a "Tommy Gun" body, the same as the original Mego Fighting Yank.

(Currently on eBay UK)

The body for the Pedigree Scarlet figure was indeed the one used on their TOMMY GUNN doll. However it is not the same as a FIGHTING YANK. In general design for sure but not the same and certainly of a higher quality closer to a GI JOE or ACTION MAN in terms of density of the plastic used. Pedigree also did a smaller almost Major matt Mason type bendy figure too but this 12 Inch guy is the one I'd love to own along with many others I am sure.

[palitoy]

Hunh, I always thought it was. Must have just been a cheaper copy.

Tommy Gunn had some neat space stuff as I recall as well.
