Makes you think doesn't it?

Peter

P.S. For fans of Supermarionation, Gerry Anderson's Fireball XL5 gets released on DVD this year.

Time for me to win the Washington State Lotto. I bought my ticket yesterday. It's up to 12 million now.

LOL FUN FUN FUN FUNFUN!!!!!

God I rather watch that crew and at that EXACT budget every week, then the Picard crew. A true labor of love, just a load of fun.

I feel young.....

Great work to all who worked on it.

Laters,

Rich.

Peter,

Is that true? Fireball XL5 on DVD? Is it the original B/W marionette show? If so, that would be SO COOL! I have such fond memories of it - we even got the full (huge) playset for Christmas. complete with humongous scale model with detachable nose, launchable skid set, the works! (Ah, if I only had that set now, EBay would be my friend ).

Please let me know if it's the same one, I'll have to get it. Let's see if I remember the theme song:


I wish I was a spaceman
The fastest guy alive
I'd fly you 'round the universe
In Fireball XL5...


Thanks!

P.S. How about Supercar?


Supercar
Supercar
It flies thru the air
And under the sea
And it can journey anywhere...

Yes Muffit, it is THE Fireball XL5 in b/w.

And yes that's the theme song. God a Gerry Anderson series that's actually older than I am!

Re: Supercar, not sure about that one. I know over here we've had Stingray, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and Joe 90 released on DVD.

Hey Fireball XL5 fans!

Even more cool -- you can find the complete set on DVD for as low as $53.17 (plus shipping is free!) at the following link:

http://www.deepdiscountdvd.com

That's half the list price and $25 less than Amazon...
Pretty cool!
