Building the MPC 22 inch long “Eagle” Transporter from Space: 1999

In this 31st amateur model build, we’ll take on the Eagle transporter model from the TV Series Space: 1999. We construct, paint, and weather one of the best Science Fiction spacecraft designs of all time from a set manufactured by MPC -- kit number MPC825.

2022 was a personally devastating year for me with the loss of Mooch and then Sophie soon after. I probably shouldn’t have attempted a model build as I lacked the focus necessary to do the best job that I could. Thus, some imperfections are present…
