Konami Thunderbirds 1 to 5 Now Available - Limited Stocks!

Welcome to Space City! Back in the 1960s and early 1970s Gerry and Sylvia Anderson created some truly excellent science fiction shows. They featured many superb vehicles. It's the models of these craft that we concentrate on here. We've created original images featuring toys and models from Fireball XL5, Stingray, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and U.F.O. A publication like this wouldn't be complete without Terry Nation's Daleks - so you'll find them here too.
Over the years many toys and models from these series have been produced. In recent decades a new way to make models has emerged - 3d computer graphics. Using Cinema 4D, Truespace and Bryce we've created models of Space City, Marineville, Moonbase and many of the craft from the various Anderson shows. We used computer graphics to create and animate models for the menus and linking screens on the Carlton Fireball XL5 DVDs. We created all of the pictures here at Space City using our own toys and models.	Who produced the toys and model kits? A lot of our models are injection molded plastic kits produced by Aoshima, Imai, Bandai and other Japanese companies. Other models are resin, vac-form plastic and metal kits from a variety of small companies. Our toys are mostly Dinky Toys from the 1960s, Matchbox and Vivid Imaginations from the 1990s, and Product Enterprise, Konami, Aoshima, Takara and Corgi releases from the early 21st century. Enjoy your tour of Space City!

All models, text and pictures on this website by Robin & Pauline Day unless otherwise noted

	SHADO MOON MODULE PASSING OVER MOONBASE Moonbase is Earth's first line of defence against hostile alien intruders. The Moon Module is SHADO's ferry rocket to take personnel to and from this vital installation. We created this image using our 3d graphics and a resin and metal model kit of the rocket. Take a look at the U.F.O. section for more images.
	Thunderbird 3 - Computer Model Here's our computer model of Thunderbird 3. This is International Rescue's spaceship - and our second Thunderbird CGI model. We built this model using Truespace. You can see more Thunderbirds models and toys in the Thunderbirds section.
	Spectrum Patrol Car Captain Scarlet speeds to the scene of another Mysteron plot. This is an Imai kit of the Spectrum Patrol Car. See more Spectrum models and toys in the Captain Scarlet section.
	SPACE CITY RECONSTRUCTED Pauline and I have re-created Fireball XL5 and Space City as 3d computer models. See more models and toys in the Fireball XL5 section
	STINGRAY Stingray - the fantastic submarine from the show of the same name. Pauline and I have re-created Stingray and its headquarters - Marineville, in 3d computer graphics. See more models and toys in our Stingray section.
	Terry Nation's DALEKS The Daleks were first seen on TV in 1963. During the 1960s they featured in a comic strip on the back page of TV21 comic, a magazine famous for its Gerry Anderson show stories and pictures. Though the Daleks were created by Terry Nation, not Gerry Anderson, it seems fitting that they should have a place on our Space City website. The Dalek shown here is a 1/5 vacform kit produced by Sevans Models in the 1980s. See the Daleks section for more pictures and information about these evil creatures.
A New Fireball XL5 Book
	Out Of Time... "In 1961, an arch criminal plots to steal a revolutionary top secret aircraft, that is decades ahead of its time. But in the blink of an eye the amazing vehicle is transported literally more than a century ahead of its time, where it is little more than a curious antique - along with its hapless pilot and passenger, who soon find themselves not only very out of place in the year 2064 - but fast running out of time..."
