For anyone who does not know, Captain Scarlet was a puppet show made by Thunderbirds creator Gerry Anderson back in 1967:
Yes, this was made for children and young teens. In England. The model work is particularly fantastic. 32 half-hour episodes were made
Captain Scarlet was the very first custom figure that I did any sculpting on. This is now the 25th anniversary of my making that figure, and several other characters from the series:
I figured it was time to make my own 'Anniversary Set'. But this time, I was really going to pull out all the stops, and do figures that I could only dream of making all those years ago.
Well, I have almost finished the set. I started in early April and 31 figures and nearly £250 later, here is the result. I will be revealing one wave of figures and/or a special set per week.

Just one point of note. Please don't bother printing out the Spectrum Bar-Code from the back of the Captain Scarlet card and sending them to me, as some people find the phrase: "Go stick your head in a bucket of water!" offensive. ;D
:-D I will post a full list of figures and parts used with Wave 4
Wave 2 and an 'Exclusive Comic Con Set' next week!
