If you are an old school sci-fi geek like me than you will be very excited before 2020 is over. In 1975 I was 8 years old and living in New York. Back then Star Trek was on channel 11 at 6 pm and then we got a double dose of Sci Fi at 7pm with Space1999 right after.
When you are 8 you really didn't care about plotlines or characterization. You watched for cool spaceships and hardware. Since that year I have been waiting for some company to put an accurate comlock and stungun on the toy shelves. There were some toys but they never looked like what I saw on the show. Mattel put out some dolls, not action figures,and decided not to get the uniform colors right. Nothing was done "right".Until now, 45 years later.
A company called 12 Sixteen of England is putting out accurate toy prop replicas with light and sound of the Space1999 hardware this summer.Think DST Trek phaser and Communicator but moonbase alpha style. This will be followed up by the most accurate 6 inch action figure line from the series to date.
Now here is the catch: they are in limited numbers and I have only found one importer here in the states for these and they are sold out. So you will have to see what you can do directly with 12 sixteen if you want to get your hands on these. Also not one toy forum has picked up on these and by time they do,the figures and props will be all gone. You heard it here. Happy hunting.
