@@JoshBernhard it was certainly fun but quickly brought home the reality of having to ‘make everything’ you see in each scene and often in different scales. It’s a huge amount of effort to make physical props and then try and make them work and move when required without wobbling and stay in focus.

@@Spaceman042 I'm in awe of what you were able to do, truly. I can understand somewhat the monumental effort and time involved, and then I'm sure the reality was double that. So glad you preserved it and were able to share for all to see.

@ not it wasn’t a good scan,lol, just simply projected onto a small area and refilmed with my digital camera. It was just done as a bit of fun to see the film again after so many years, maybe one day a proper scan could be done.

@@Spaceman042 50 years old? Surely not! I remember watching Space 1999 on TV during its original run. Looking back, the production values on all those Anderson shows, especially the props, models and special effects, was out of this world. Has anyone designed a cooler looking spacecraft than an Eagle? It's a shame Ron Moore hasn't picked up the mantle and relaunched the show as a movie or a series. After all, he did admit to stealing the intro credits for Galactica from Space 1999 😃

@@joew4295 LOL, there was a robot being built as the hero needed someone to talk to, however it was never completed and the parts that were made were heavy and difficult to move. Not small as it was man-shaped and looked like a human skeleton design which I thought would look unique until a similar design in The Terminator turned up! Mine was a bit friendlier looking though.

@joew4295 6 ай бұрын

I don't think Ladd at Fox will be encouraged to extend another line of credit again based on what I see what with no optical effects done and very little money left to do it. If Part 2 is better I might, just might be able to get Disney to take over production. We'll see...

Great clip and thanks for uploading. I really liked the show, in particular Year 12 which for me had better costume designs (building on Year 1) which had more colour, like the jackets and I liked the women's slit-skirt and boots uniform and Command Center sets. Certainly spaceship design wise the Eagle Transporter has stood the test of time well as a good looking design, a functional multi-purpose Cargo ship with 'Fighter' capabilities, plus the Moonbase Alpha design and eagle Launchpad Hangars exterior and interiors.

WOW, thanks for this. Brings back memories. This was my second car, and after a Fiat 126 this was luxury. Must say I wouldn't call the rear end weird, I'd reserve that for the Cherry saloon (hated that car). I'd call it streamlined and very practical and I couldn't understand why most cars didn't have such a rear end profile. Many cars nowadays you'll find have this type of rear end because it is the best compromise shape for maximum streamlining and interior space. In fact my present newly acquired car, the 2nd gen Honda Insight, is virtually an updated version of your Datsun, same dimensions aswell. At the moment I am restoring your Datsun's sister car, the Sunny 120Y coupe. They both had the same 5 bearing 1171cc engine but the Sunny was rear wheel drive and your Datsun is front wheel drive. I loved my little Cherry coupe. The hatchback body was fairly new in those days and it fascinated me that it could easily be changed into a van and you could even sleep in the back if needed. Even though it was a small car I remember the bonnet looked quite long from inside, and I loved that. You must have dropped very unlucky with yours as these Datsuns are more known for their reliability, and for knocking the British car industry into the ground partly because of it. I seem to recall the one thing I wasn't too keen on with my Cherry coupe was that top gear wasn't quite high enough (or is that low enough?), it was quite high revving even at 60mph. I consider them an absolute classic. Well done on restoring this one.

@Spaceman042 Жыл бұрын

Hi Richard, thanks for the message, glad you liked it and nice to hear that you are working on a 120y, which appears to be a more popular model. When I wanted to buy my first car my dad asked me which cars I liked, but I didn’t really know anything about cars apart from there being two driving around on the roads that I thought looked really good! When he finally identified them for me one was my 120a coupe and the other was your 120y coupe! Lol (I then thought that there must be 26 different Datsun cars called 120 something!) It’s been 15 years since I bought the car and started working on it, and she is still working today. Hope yours is on the road soon. Cheers David

The model was painted many times during its life, numerous times during the filming and then afterwards. At the time, around 1979, the model wasn’t considered very valuable and was simply an old prop that wasn’t required anymore! Many 1999 models and props were given a paint for their appearance in a big public display, by people who simply didn’t care about it being authentic to filmed condition. This model sold at auction in November 2021, the new owner is unknown.
