    Loved that too. Space 1999 was the follow up.

    I watched it as a kid and thought the idea of flying through space on the
    Moon and encountering new things each week was rather cool. I still have
    those Eagle SFX in my head and the sound of Sandra? Calling out to the
    Eagles.. still what you recall eh?

    Yep. As a kid, I was lucky enough to have the Space 1999 Eagle 1 toy by Mattel. And boy, those were cool.

    I remembered the episode "War Games" where the Hawk interceptors
    attack the moonbase. The people who built the spaceship models for that
    show were amazing in what they did and how quickly they could turn the
    models around.



    ... Do you remember?

    I recall episodes where there was some tentacle creature on the Eagle trying
    to suck them up. It scared the crap out of me at the time :)
