That's who I thought the bottom was with his sequin shit. :lol:

They look great and I watch Dr.Who from time to time but still no idea WHO they are. :oops:

Oh and I'm young enough to remember the Tracey Island that you could make off of Blue Peter (you know, before the Internet, when you sent of for a "fact sheet" lol).

Anyway, I thought Thunderbirds was rubbish so naturally I made something to put my earliest minis on. :mrgreen:

Doctor Who
UFO
Space: 1999
Thunderbirds, Stingray, Fireball XL5, Captain Scarlet, Jo90

have you not heard of any of those either ?

I vaugely remember watching the Who episode with the "space maggots" that we're made out of inflated condoms. :lol:

And even fainter ones of some episode with space bases on Mars(?) and a dead dalek oozing black ichor. Other than that I remember finding the little robot chap "bebebebe" on Buck Rogers reruns quite fun.

Sorry! :lol:

I used to watch it on Gold or whatever the channel was on cable round me dad's after my parents divorced. It was his sunday morning ritual.

I loved Blakes 7. I was at primary school when it was on and always got to be Avon. Not because I was cool, but because I had a bowl head barnet.

I remember the guns that they used to have: my mum had a set of hair curlers by Braun or Clairol or someone that looked just like the laser dildo thing the Blake mini is holding.

I also remember an episode of Blue Peter where they made replicas of the wrist communicators they wore.

I dunno, given that the heads are probably only 4mm or so, I'd say Ian's done a pretty good job...

top fella ain't bad but the bottom one has a dodgy right eye that looks like he has had a stroke

I have sort of fond memories of Blake's 7 but do find it a bit cringeworthy to watch these days.

For some reason it is decidedly more cheesey than Dr. Who in my eyes.

These mini's are nice. But I am a bit curious as to whether there is a market out there for them.

I say that as if you were going to replay any of the Blake's 7 adventures you'd need the team and maybe a couple of baddies and some white outline armatures for when they 'beam'.

So nice enough but not for me.
