This military launch was used to take Space Major Reeves to Base Concord in
.
This miniature boat appears to have been made from a slightly modified plastic torpedo boat toy or kit. The same model was used in the background of a seaport scene in
.
It may also have been reused as a background model in
Joe 90.
Here are a group of small boats at anchor in Model Spy.
What we have here are a variety of model kit and toy based boat miniatures. Note the boat off in the background with the black hull and yellow superstructure. This is the same boat that was used to take Space Major Reeves to Base Concord in Renegade Rocket. The model boats seen here are in a number of differing sizes to simulate more separation between the boats than there actually is in the water tank.
This is fashion designer (and
Spectrum
spy) André Verdain's yacht as seen in
Model Spy.
This model probably had a wooden hull and a superstructure which was made from thin artist's board. It was detailed with a number of cast metal commercial model boat fittings. Note the several smaller scale boat models in the background, placed there to give an impression of great distance between Verdain's boat and the shoreline.
Here is the new atomic liner President Roberts on the day of its launching. The President Roberts was targeted for destruction by the Mysterons in
.
This elaborately carved miniature was made for the most part out of wood. Note the numerous cranes positioned around the model ship. These were all made from parts taken from Airfix model railroad bridge and crane kits. The model trucks and cars positioned around the model ship appear to be Dinky, Corgi, or Matchbox
die cast toys.
Note that different sized cars and trucks were used to simulate distance and perspective!
This World Navy Clam class nuclear submarine was used by
Colonel White
in
.
This wooden model was built for the
Thunderbirds
episode
.
Not only does this model show up in
White as Snow, but it can also be seen in the background of Atlantica Base in
and it was later used in an episode or two of
Joe 90.
This camouflaged minisub was used by a pair of criminals to break into a Spectrum information center vault in
.
The criminal's minisub model is very difficult to see. However, from the general shape it appears as if it was made from some kind of plastic automobile kit. Also, you can just barely make out what appear to be automobile tail fins and wheels.
