discussion SPACE 1999: MARS BASE ALPHA.

[eddiesolo]

This is based on events after the Moon broke away. Earth is in a bad way, tectonic upheavals, tidal locked.

The space administration had already started to look to Mars as the next step from the Moon. With resources limited the Eagles had to be retro-fitted with very long range fuel and power plants to bring personal and equipment, they are worn and used and covered in the Martian dust.

There is still some bits to finish off on the Eagle and then attach it via some clear acrylic rod.

Is that the Corgi eagle ? It looks so familiar.

Nope, it is the 12 inch MPC kit. Rubbish plastic and fit and the decals are awful.

But it's sci fi so I am watching

So it will be even more impressive when done
