Talking Lt. Ellis Update

Ken Parker
Not sure if anyone spotted this already but Product Enterprises
retooled the Lt. Ellis figure and it looks much more accurate -

I think with the reviews - It doesn't look like Ellis, the uniform is WAY
off. They decided to delay it. The release date is now Aug.

It does look more like Gabrielle than the last one. But still not dead on.
They must have problems with female faces as I also checked out their figures
of Steed and Mrs Peel in The Avengers and Emma only slightly looks like Diana
Rigg. Interesting crossover as the accesories for Mrs. Peel include her gold
plated Webley Mk.III and the Winged Avenger comic book from the episode of the
same name and the book about P.U.R.R.R.from The Hidden Tiger episode. It
seems to have photo of Ronnie Barker in it so it might have one of Gabrielle
Drake also.

Face looks much better then before, but head seems too big compared to body,
which is too fat. Shape of the body is much better on Marmit statue
(considerably more expensive than this, though - about five times). Kudos to
Product Enterprise for listening to potential customers, as with cleaning
the Mobile 2 (although it could still be cleaner - my looks a bit greenish
from the weathering).

All the best,
Branko

Looks like they've shortened the neck to a more realistic length, too. Or was it the Marmit statue that had the ridiculously long neck?

Cool!

Did you ghost-write this book, Anthony? Was this Sylvia's idea,
or did someone ask her to write this book?

Re: New Sylvia Anderson book

Nope, I had nothing to do with writing it, just put a couple of
people in touch with each other to help get it published. Sylvia's
idea as far as I know.

Hi Anthony.
About the 200 rare photos, are they mainly b&w or color photos?
Thank you.

Re: New Sylvia Anderson book

Hi Teresa,
I have not seen a galley of the book, but I know they are pretty much
all photos that Sylvia provided herself - not studio publicity shots.
I'll probably know more in late July.
Best,
Anthony

Game Life

Thian Raven
Dont know if its of any interest to anyone other than myself. But on an Online game called SECOND LIFE there are people flying the Invader and other ships from UFO. I think I am either going to find a SHADO group there or start one.

I don't mind at all... especially since they're really not *my* photos,
but belong to the current copyright holder... :-)

Marc-those are pretty sharp! I only have the one of
the Alien with the rifle. How are you making out with
that batch of 2 1/4's you were loaned out?

They've all been scanned, and will be the next ones to
appear on the website. Those B&W shots were what I
was working on right before the transparencies arrived
(plus several other interruptions!)
