About this deal
The module is about 5 inches in length, although following the more detailed 1/24 command module seen in close-up. Next, I attached the module with the supplied screws, which make for a secure connection but they are visible on the model. However, its unique look captured the attention of Gerry Anderson’s production team who transformed it into the futuristic Moonbuggy depicted in Space:1999. Warp had originally planned to produce a accurising kit for the MPC Eagle but decided to produce a completely new kit instead.
Includes a copy of Roberto Baldassari's ultimate Eagle blueprints and Phil Rae's blueprint reprinted from SIG magazine.It was ideal for industrial and agricultural uses with “wide appeal among sportsmen who do not want to be limited by terrain”. Can be displayed extended or retracted and is designed to allow the builder to install magnets (not supplied) for attachment. Backtracking to Step 11, I built the propulsion unit, cleaning up seams and painting the tanks, frames, and pipes before assembly.
This edition of the 22” Eagle from MPC features shoulder pod and engine configuration from Eagle 2 and the famous laboratory pod featured in the “Metamorph” episode of Space: 1999. As seen in the Space 1999 episode 'War Games', this model kit is in scale with the WARP and Product Enterprise Eagles. The stun gun features a working slide stun/kill button and both the stun gun and comlock are hollow to provide space for custom electronics and lighting. The first part contains pages packed with photos on high quality glossy paper (the first 8 pages comprises the cover and both sides of a fold-out poster).I followed the instructions and assembled the crew module followed by the fore and aft walkways, painting subassemblies as I went. clear acrylic and templates for the windows which will need to be cut out of the beak, instructions included. MPC presents a Limited Re-Issue of the 22” model kit with details gleaned from the original miniature used during the production of Space:1999.
