I recall some older kids, a pair of brothers, having that big ass toy ship.  Minus all the accessories, doors, etc.

Didn't know what the hell it was at the time.

They also had a big Enterprise from the first couple Star Trek movies, but it was missing the engine nacelles.  I still thought it was pretty cool.

oh Yeah!!!!

Close, but that's from UFO, Space:1999's sort-of predecessor.

Who cares - any excuse to look at Gabrielle Drake will do for me :-)

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Models and minis are the bane of many a wallet.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

And now everyone can try to forget that for all practical purposes, Space 1999 is the sequel to X-com (which was heavily based on the UFO series).

I don't think the term 'X-Com' was ever used in relation to the TV show, though the game has a lot of similarities. Also, while Space:1999 was originally supposed to be a followup to UFO, the actual second season of UFO was cancelled. Gerry Anderson didn't want to waste all the work done so came up with an unrelated series that could use the props and sets that had been started for UFO season 2. There was no Alien invasion before the events that sent the Moon and Moonrise Alpha into deep space.
