After their runaway success with the Star Trek line of toys, it shouldn't come as a shock that AHI snapped up the rights to this then new series Space:1999.
"Sci Fi mania" was sweeping America thanks to the reruns of Star Trek playing in syndication across America and Space:1999 promised to be even a bigger hit. It had a huge budget, incredible special effects and name stars Martin Landau and Barbara Bain. While the series didn't replace Star Trek, we did get some cool toys out of the deal.
The Eagle Transporter was one of the more memorable things about the series and honestly has it's own fan base.
More Parachuting, AHI always managed to sneak these in. This one is a pretty good likeness of Martin Landau.
This is an Eagle pilot, I'm going to pretend it's Alan Carter.
The Memorable Moon Buggies didn't get enough merchandise.
This is part of our (hopefully) growing AHI Space:1999 Toy Gallery.

I noticed a lot of cool 70's related DVDs came out in the past few weeks and thought I'd draw attention to them:
The Second Season of Streets of San Francisco is out today
The Hudson Brothers Razzle Dazzle Show is something I need to buy, not only because I watched it on Saturday mornings but that EMU gave my wife nightmares as a kid.
The Fourth Season Of Hawaii Five-O also came out recently, I spent my college years watching this show at 3 am. I don't remember any of the episodes.
The Remake of Get Smart also brought us a DVD release of the Nude Bomb
which had Don Adams returning as Max Smart for the big screen (no Barbra Feldon though). I'll probably pick this up, not because it's a good movie (seriously, it's not funny) but I saw it ten times as a kid and has that great shoot out scene in the now defunct Universal Studios Battlestar Galactica ride. I should probably just buy the original series though....

The fourth season of The Incredible Hulk has that great episode where he runs into another Hulk played by Dick "Swamp Thing" Durock. I need this too..
