Capitan Scarlet is probably my favourite as well. Seemed a bit darker and more grown up that Thunderbirds.
Terrahawks was also good although the puppets were arguably worse (although you've gotta love a Zeroid). Also quite liked Stingray.

No love for Space:1999 in this thread?
As much as I liked all the other shows, it was Space:1999 that captured my imagination the most.

That was my favourite show at the time. I have an Eagle Transporter on the windowsill to this day.

Terrahawks was utter crap.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

The same here, then I discovered UFO. They are probably my favourites.

I had 2 Eagles from Matchbox as a kid, a white one with the personnel box and a green one with a crane and radioactive containers. Unfortunately all the toys got thrown out during one move or another. :(

Ditto, plus my Interceptor, Shado Mobile, SPV, etc etc. Thunderbird 4 doesn't count as it was so small it could have disappeared down the plughole.
