Actually, I took apart the missile launcher, to put it into another
toy...and the rest of the Mobile Unit itself just sort of got shoved
to the bottom of the drawer. Sacriledge, I know...

I also thought it strange that if the Captain Scarlet Armored saloon
put out by the same company was painted its proper white, why didn't
they do that for the Interceptors?

Re: Ed Bishop as Capt. Blue: I thought they did a remarkable job
making the marionette look just like him, when I later saw the UFO
series for the first time, and could compare.
