Hi everyone, Perhaps someone out there has some first-hand familiarity with the original LIS 4' and 10' Jupiter 2 filming miniatures, primarily the mechanism...

I've been trying to fill in some gaps in my 60's TV Guide collection and I recently got this one which although is about VTTBOTS also shows the backlot moat...
some where i used to have several back lot websites saved. long gone, but if I remember right Fox had the land on the back side of the famous Hollywood sign?...
Why is the flying saucer from "The Day The Earth Stood Still" movie sitting there with all the VTTBOTS submarines? Was it in one of the episodes? Underwater? ...
I think the first VOYAGE episode?Klaatu's ?ufo appeared in was "The Sky is Falling" in season one. It was re-used several times, much as the FORBIDDEN PLANET...

The moat was right on the backlot of the studio near the Century Plaza Hotel. Century City which had bought much of the backlot from Fox also wanted to buy the...
June Lockhart (and Bob M.) will be in Studio City, May 17 & 18, to Meet Fans http://showstopperstars.com/index.html "May your B9 shine!" "R2 & U!" "Does 'Leaf'...
... It's not meant to be a full size interior but more of a Jupiter 2 lite, or perhaps a Jupiter 1, if that was an experimental one person spacecraft. I plan...
Hi everyone, After doing some checking on this matter, I discovered that the Jupiter 2's landing gear was deployed entirely by wires run through the top of the...
It seems like they would do things the cheapest, simplest, and easiest way possible which is fine since all they needed to do is get the shot. It seems like a...
Whenever I have watched Follow the Leader it seemed like the ending was too abrupt. I just received and read the script for it and the ending, which was...
I see where we now have 300 members in our group now. I never thought it would grow this big, there seem to be a lot of fans who like the hardware of the show....
Very cool Bill. I agree that the filmed ending does seem abrupt. That's always been one of my favorite episodes. I always preferred the darker ones. Brian...
Hi Bill, What about using small rc plane mechanical retracts between the servo and the landing legs. Figuring the lever ratios out might be a pain but you...
Definitely Follow the Leader has always been a favorite. Serious. No goofy guest star/alien of the week and good chemistry between John and Will. Thanks for...
What a great looking model, I'd be afraid to even fly that after all the work that went into it. You must have got your prop making skill from him. Bill...
... Actually, that particular model is no more. They do crash, unfortunately. However, he's just finishing up another one just like it and intends to fly it....
Definitely a great episode to end the season with. I always liked this type of episode best too, the ones that scared you. By the way, the reason Smith was...
I was thinking mechanical only from a cost perspective ($13 to $25 for a pair of generic) vs Pneumatic ($70 and up). (Too many hobbies, stuff adds up.) I had...
Bill did YOU see the guy selling the 35 Xeroxed LIS scripts on ebay? He went down in price I think from last week. I have quite a few of those (year 1 & 2) but...
He said he'd sell copies of those individually for $20 each and since I had most of the 35, I bought 3 of them including Follow the Leader since it's hard to...
