- Do you remember the TV series Space 1999, that aired from 1975 to 1977? What did you think of the Eagle spaceships as seen in the episodes? In this video we have a quick look at the range of 12 inch diecast metal Eagle models produced by Product Enterprise between January 2004 & November 2006.
Welcome to the Retro Tech Repair Shop, where I invite you to join me in a journey of investigating, repairing, reviewing & playing with obsolete technology, games and nostalgic favourites of the past.
Did you have a favourite toy or piece of tech and always wondered how it worked? Do you want to learn how to repair stuff, maybe a beloved childhood toy that you would like to get working again. Kids always bringing you their broken items to fix? Maybe you want a stroll down memory lane. If so, you came to the right place!
I will be purchasing items from eBay that are listed as "for spares or repair" or "not working", to see if we can bring them back from the plight of impending landfill or recycling. Let's not allow these gems to be lost forever.
I will also be taking a look and reviewing working toys, games, models & collectables from my childhood or based on classic films & TV series from the 70's onwards.
I hope you find it interesting, informative and fun.

ICONIC!
That's all I can say about this classic TV series of the 80's that ran for only two series'
Actually came out in the 70s.
You've made a great video presentation of Space: 1999 eagles. The eagle that I prefer is the classic transporter. Thank you.
Great show and some great models!
It's a shame there isn't one with the arm for grabbing things in space like those life pods!!
Got the V.I.P Eagle, Still in it's packaging :)
Great introduction. Oh happy days. I still have the Airfix model of the transport eagle in a box along with some ufo collected cards in the attic. IAM 60 now and still watch space 1999, ufo, Thunderbirds, Joe 90 and many other Jerry Anderson greats. Maybe I watch them to recapture my youth or it because there's never anything on TV. Thanks 👍 for showing the eagles will look of for them.🙌👍
I've always thought that of all the spaceships I've seen in science fiction, these were the most functional and practical in terms of design.
Great review 👏 i own the freighter and the gift set. And i am waiting for the 22 inch signature supermarionation eagle which ive just purchased
Smashing video ! i own the Transporter Eagle got it for Christmas back in the Day proudly on display in my living Room (:
Those are very nice diecast models of the best spacecraft in science fiction.
There was an attack version called the Hawk. That one was really cool.
I have the first Eagle, Rescue Eagle and a silver one.
Perfect video.
Currently have the entire collection from the current Sixteen12 release. Sweet.
Great collection! Space 1999 was my least favourite GA series so, when Product Enterprise moved away from diecasts and were selling off their stock cheap, the Eagles were the only models I didn't buy (sounds of head repeatedly hitting wall....)......
I have the original one, and it sits proudly on my shelf, one of my favourite models in my collection. I wish I'd bought the laboratory eagle with the laser tank, but at the time couldn't afford it.
I have the standard version, the rescue version and laboratory version. I sold the freighter version a few years ago, much to my regret. Eventually I will purchase it again and the VIP version as well. Excellent video ! I see Hero Collector is releasing their first Eagle now. The quality isn’t the same as compared to Product Enterprise though…
But the three currently available Eaglemoss models are not bad at all. It's only 80 bucks and you can get it on sales for ca 50. It's slightly less accurate compared to this one her. But the paint job is better quality. Eaglemoss got the color of the interior of the cages right.
I remember when these were first released, sadly I had to watch my money back then and was unable to order them.
Eagles always looked like a legit shape and would actually work in real life... excellent ❤
Really great overview of the Product Enterprise line of Eagles! I have them all, except for the silver and gold versions (not interested), and the Freighter Eagle. I have the Laboratory Eagle boxed set, and it's real cool. I also recently received the (formerly Product Enterprise, now known as) Sixteen12 Moonbase Alpha launch pad. To make up for it, I got the Freighter Eagle in mini form, in scale with the launch pad.
I own the entire set with the exception of the Gold and Chrome......Models.....
For some reason I thought I remembered PE also releasing a Heavy Lift variant, with the bolt on side engines? And a Manipulator arm variant, which had a removable grabber claw on the front left landing pod.
These are out again by Sixteen12 in episode specific deluxe sets
I've started to get some of the Space 1999 sets from Sixteen12. Maybe a future video in years to come if I can get enough!
I’ve got 9
I have 3 the rescue eagle VIP eagle and the deluxe box set lab eagle and laser tank and moon buggy.
There is one eagle they did not model and that was the Hawk attack varient. I have only ever seen that version as a plastic kit . It is a pity that all the Product Enterprise models are now so damned expensive.
‘In this episode’
Had all the original DINKY Eagles as a child, also had the Original series Enterprise all the Thunderbirds and UFO models also made by DINKY. These Eagles do look very similar to those I wonder if they got hold of DINKYs original tooling?
No, these are completely new compared to the Dinky ones. I bet you wish you still had the Dinky's since they are now worth a fortune, I know I do. 2 Eagles, 1 Enterprise, 1 Thunderbird 2 and 2 UFO models, probably worth close on 2 grand mint in box in todays money
@@davidwatts1871 yeah had all the TV related dinky toys also had the Italian Job Mini Coopers too! Plus had a huge array of Corgie and Ertl toys too like KITT, the General Lee and The Fall Guy truck the 60s style Batmobile and most of the 007 vehicles! And the list goes on if still had them all could have retired by now!
💫💫💫
I have a rescue and a gold one
Ulra-Probe Eagle
No Hawk from this company?
There is now. They just released it in televised colors and the originally submitted all-white prototype version.
@@keithbk thanks
No wonder they’re so rare. You bought them all 😂
The chrome and gold ones are awful.
Great review. I've got all of the Product Enterprises' Eagles. I'm now thinking about the Sixteen 12 ones, but they are a little pricey.
Thanks David. Like you i wondered about the Sixteen 12 Eagles and eventually decided to get a few of the sets
I wish I’d bought more at the time 🕰️ I have the gold one ☝️ only!
