Hi

I just wanted to add, I have the Dinky Space 1999 Eagle Freighter, and it is
the proper colors. This is the eagle that moved the Radioactive waste.
Strange they made this one the right colors, and not the regular eagle.

I'll get some photos up of them soon. I have yet to dig them out of
storage. The odd thing is that the fuselage on all three is *green*,
of all things, with the landing gear orange, and on at least one of
the cockpit canopies of the three, it is blue/clear plastic, instead
of clear, like the others. When I find them, I'll take pix of the 3
together, a close-up of one, and one of Straker's car.

Fortunately, I resisted the very strong urge over the years to paint
them to the proper colours, as I did once for a Space:1999 Eagle
(well, it looked better that way), so, despite them all being very
much played with, they are still in remarkable condition (and I never
once lost any of those nose-missles that shoot, and go "bang" with a
paper/gunpowder cap, like they made when I was young...*smile*) :-)
