The Space 1999 Eagle with Cargo Pod 1:48 Scale Model Kit is a remarkable 22-inch long model kit boasting details gleaned from the original miniature used during the production of the 1970s British TV series Space:1999. This edition includes the cargo pod and its winch mechanism with hoist and 4 nuclear waste canisters. The kit features a spring-action landing gear and comes molded in two colors, with clear parts, water-slide decals, and an assembly guide. This skill level 2 model kit requires paint and glue for assembly.

In "Breakaway," the Space:1999 premiere episode, it was clear that the iconic Eagle Transporter spacecraft was truly unique. Its utilitarian nature was demonstrated when the central passenger pod was swapped out to perform duties ranging from general transportation to rescue missions, but it became even more apparent when the cargo pod was implemented. In this configuration, the Eagle was well equipped to handle heavy lifting, whether transporting nuclear waste canisters on its flatbed or when fully rigged with a powerful winch with a magnetic hoist. Ages 10 and up.
