Mark IX Hawk!! This craft never got the attention it rightly deserved! I too was hoping for a 1/48 Scale to go with my Great Eagle collection and I’m not giving up hope. I’ll take the 1/72 but please bring a 1/48 version to market. And if you make accessories, they will sell!!! Thank you! Great work!

I will buy more than one as I would like to model it both in the original pre-film finished and the filmed finish. I would buy a 1/48 kit as well if you create that in the future. Look forward to the lab pod and boosters for the Eagle. What about the glider for the Eagle, and an Ultra Probe kit someday?

The old MPC-Airfix Mk IX Hawk kit WAS accurate. It was made from Martin Bower’s small model made for “War Games,” not the large hero model.

Great price point. Can’t wait. Now I just need some tins of Humbrol orange for the accent colors!

I’d love to see some 1/72 “guest ships” from Space:1999 too, though I realise those are more of a niche market so you’d have to test the market a bit first I’m sure.

The Laser Tanks (maybe a 1/144 set of the 3) are particularly popular in Space:1999 fan circles.

We hope to get to the lab pod and boosters some day.

thank you Jamie for your reply, I shall be waiting for the 1/48 version, on the swift i must say that it’s a shame :-).
any chance of getting a lab pod version for the eagle ? additional thrusts too ? that would be great 🙂

i’m planning to have a fleet of eagles 🙂

We hope to do the 1/48 lab pod Eagle at some point. Not right this minute though.

I guess this smaller scale has a logic to it and will be appreciated by many fans as well. For more accuracy I hope that they will also include smaller and more accurate joints for those who want to use steel wires in order to produce a more accurate Mark IX Hawk.You can only achieve a certain precision with some molded parts as making them thin accurate would be either impossible or make certain parts too fragile. While we are at it will Round Two produce the 1/48th scale Eagle with Lab Pod. If not, would they at least offer a resin Lab Pod that the modeler could be able to fit on one of the existing Eale produced previously.
