      they can make incredible models now, but then it was hand made, machine skills, drawings and engineering, creativity and passion for making cool toys, and many of them have lasted lifetimes ! so your absolutely right they are so cool ! thank you for commenting, hope you enjoyed the video! stay safe.

    Ah, loved the Buck Rogers Starfighter, friend of mine at school did take a hacksaw to the ‘bar’ on his and also repainted the whole thing (including those blue engines!) to be more accurate to the show. Mind you, he also painted his Starsky & Hutch Torino orange and put a ‘01’ on the door. Corgi didn’t make Dodge Chargers back then I guess…

    YeY! My other fave Corgi toy after 007 Lotus!
    I too waa curious of handle at front of toy yet no cover on the snow speeder, the fatter cousin of this ship!
    I saw Buck Rogers the movie at Odeon Oldham (now a car park) back in '79 which was playing The Humanoid in screen 2 plus there was a trailer for the then upcoming Moonraker!
    But what connects the two films mentioned?

    • @Moochtv
      @Moochtv 2 года назад +2

      Glen A Larson made Battlestar Galatica, Buck Rogers and Knight Rider, and would recycle the sfx and sound effects.
      That's why Bucks shuttle when launched from the Draconia, is the same launch shoot from Galatica and the cylon eye scanner sound is same as K.I.T.T's scanner!
      We still bought the toys, mind!

    • @BROOKSCOLLECTABLES
      @BROOKSCOLLECTABLES  2 года назад

      did he sing the fall guy theme tune too or is that me having an acid trip ? even better recycled sci-fi sound effects that didn't fool our generation (much) 🤔🤣🤣 rubbish but brilliant tv that i miss now !

      Answer : Richard Kiel.
      He played Jaws in Moonraker and was the 'lead' in The Humanoid movie!
      Now he's eating 3 shredded wheat!

    As I mentioned in the last video contents, had that. Also annoyed by the handle but wasn't old enough to have a go with a hacksaw. I do remember pulling off the annoyingly loud sticker on the top to make it a bit more authentic. I did get annoyed by the scale of the figures relative to size of the indistinct pilot, which was just a minor silver blob.

    Another great video, I imagine your home is littered in little red bullets everywhere 😂
    Remember these new, but I never had one, aside the junior version which did nothing compared to the big one and left me very disappointed as my school yard cohorts ran around firing red bullets at each other till they Very quickly lost them.......
    I did own the Dinky Eagle (but who didn't?) Mine had the radioactive canisters, all my mates though had the cargo/transport pod.
    Keep up the good work and see you soon....

    I've got the small one which I've had since the '80s. Still in pretty good condition. The bar on the front has always annoyed me.

    • @BROOKSCOLLECTABLES
      @BROOKSCOLLECTABLES  Месяц назад +1

      Me too I have seen them with it cut off, which looks better, but they could have come up with a better workaround than the bar across the front 🤣🤣🤣 sill a great toy, I wish I’d kept my original one ! But I think that’s why I collect now. Thanks for commenting ! M

    I loved Buck Rogers, both with Buster Crabbe and Gil Gerrard, but what were they thinking with series two, that birdman was just daft, it would have been better if they would have just wrote some more stories for the first series, if it aint broke, why fix it?. I have a diecast viper from Battlestar Galatica by hotwheels, they are not easy to find, but perhaps you might like to find one of those.
