Hi Jeff, And that was going for 650 Pounds? Wow! I hate to translate that into USD! I would love to see a copy. Have a good one, (Love your handle, by the...

Hi Mrs. Gooner, The attention span children have for toys these days is so short. They beg for a toy, get it and then toss it on the ground about an hour or...
Howdy Kelly, Great points! We never had any Fireball merchandise where I grew up (the San Francisco Bay Area). But there were so many other things. It's...
Hi Robin, I wish there was more XL5 merchandise out there and less Thunderbirds, which I agree has been "done to death." Now Mrs. Gooner posted that they're...
Hi Cheryl, I don't know why Thunderbirds is 'the' Anderson show that's pushed so much. But I would guess that therein lies the answer. It is pushed and pushed...
Hi Michael, Yes it's a shame the way the situation is resolved by slapstick. Clearly, Steve 'rates' Boris as an opponent and it would have been great to have...

Hi Robin, Exactly. Thunderbirds gets pushed at us and is easier for the "LCD" audience to understand. Such a pity that as you mention other, better Anderson...
Don't fret, Mrs. Gooner, I don't like Thunderbirds, either. I remember it from when I was a kid and didn't even like it then! Fireball XL5 was and remains my...

Hi Mrs Gooner, No, you aren't being pernickety - you just have good taste. Whilst I collect a lot of Anderson merchandize - I only collect the things that I...
Hi Mrs Gooner, Thanks for those very interesting observations. Goes to show there's always something new to spot on these DVDs. I think Matt is the 'Engineer'...
Hi everyone, I have been looking through my 'stuff' and found an old 'Countdown' Holiday Spectial (1971) which I must have bought for the reprints of a couple...

Hi Robin, Wow, we missed out on so much on this side of "The Pond." What kind of adverts were the ice lollies featuring Steve and Venus? So curious!!! Isn't...
Hi Keryn, That's a big YES!!!!!!!!!! Not having had anything TV21 here in the US, I for one would love to see those photos. Thanks for sharing! Cheryl. Keryn...
Hi Keryn....and that's a 'yes' from me too. I completely missed out on Countdown here in the 1970s. Don't ask me why - I just didn't notice it was on sale....
Hi Mrs Gooner, Well, let's just clarify that final scene with Steve and Venus. Venus treats Steve to a black eye and then treats Steve for a black eye. She's...
