Man I really miss that show. People think I'm nuts when I try to explain to them it was about. It seems most American's never saw that series. Probably because it was shown on PBS here. I wish I could get video tapes of those old shows. But it's hard enough to get Space1999 tapes here in the states. ScottA

That point has been discussed on the email group at this link. On Don Showalter's model the other side shows nothing except a figure 1. I suggested that the starboard side might have "SKY/DIVER" translated into some language such as French or Hebrew that forms compound words in the opposite order.

Hi The real model as used in the series cheated it had nothing on the other side just the 1 as in Don's model. I remember seeing the original at a show once. Along with the only surviving bit of Zero-X (the wheel flap from the nose wheel) Hint now that would be a model for some one to make (my favorite ship from the anderson series.... see you Dave

Which series did Zero-X occur in?
TheWanderer posted Thu, 28 November 2002 at 5:16 PM
Hi Zero-X was the craft used to get to mars in both Captain Scarlet and Thunderbirds most notably in the movie 'Thunderbirds are go!' Imai produced 2 model kits (phyical) about 10 years ago one was 144th scale and to produce an effective ship needs very heavy modification with a large file. The other had wings over 18" and was excellent I never had the cash at the time and if I ever see (very Rare) it costs upward of 150.(sob Sob) Anyway if you want to see some not very detailed pic look up the Url below or do a yahoo search on Thunderbirds & Zero-X www.crc.paragould.ar.us/~adam/fab/TBAG/tbagmachines.htm sorry this is so long but well... you asked See you Dave
