Eagles

The first Eagle model ("Eagle 1"). Profile views, episode pictures, more pictures

Notice the round Apollo Saturn V kit piece on the side of the leg pods.

Below the Eagle as it appeared in the initial episodes of Space 1999, with Moonbase Alpha beyond. The pods and nose cone have less panel shading. Also note the "Moonbase Alpha" decal, which has orbits around the Earth and Moon (apparently drawn by hand). Later in Year One the orbits do not appear.

Publicity pictures from mid-year 1. Note the "Moonbase Alpha" decals are a darker blue than the Year 2 decals seen on the Eagles in the following pictures.

A general side view.

Another side view. The main body is painted with a car paint- Ford Diamond White. The feet in Year One were the same white as the rest, although darker due to being "dirtied down". In Year Two the feet were replaced with thicker pads painted in grey, seen here. Another difference in the feet is the number of rectangles on top of each lobe. Actually these are 3/4 inch long Sasco year planner vinyl labels (intended for office walls)- the same labels are the red markers on the side pods and engines. There were five on each side in Year One; there are six in Year Two.

Front views showing the command module. Notice the screw holding the passenger module in place.

The main body and passenger pod of the Eagle. The "windows" on the upper sides are simply black (the frames dividing them into 3 panes are actually just painted on).

A rear view of the Eagle.
