You are too kind. I'm off to have a bash at making the Full Strength, Half Strength boxes today. Often I find the simplest things the most difficult to build.

I've been trying to track down a pair of the original make of 60's bike goggles that the production team used for the henchmen that carry the gun. there were many similar styles, but I think the ones used are these, the cross bar over the bridge of the nose is a give away and appears to be specific to this make. they obviously coloured the lens's red.

They're superb, Ian!

Dare I say probably better made than the originals.

Thanks Darren, I've surprised myself at just how much there is to build from the series, initially I thought there'd be very little. I'd like to replicate some of the more interesting costumes eventually. A complete Winged Avenger would be fun and a couple of the more way out Emmapeelers

'FULL STRENGTH' is a job for tomorrow

Just the goggles to restore now and add to the display, and then that's my prop replica tribute to The Forget-Me-Knot finished

Just amazing as always Ian! Did I read that you7 plan to make EmmaPeelers? Do you sew as well? They look rather challenging but my favorite fashion of the show of course.

Are you sure you're not a diabolical mastermind Ian? I could swear that gun might really work....

That's very generous, thank you.
Yes you did, I'm a bit of a 'Jack of all trades and master of none', so I wouldn't say I can sew exactly, but I can boot up a sewing machine. I am going to make a couple of Emmapeelers, but probably not until the deep mid winter when the weather really is too bad to get outside and airspray etc. That's also when I'm going to complete the Winged Avenger costume I began earlier in the year. I've a couple of things that I've started and want to finish before that, and a few props I really want to start in November from Too Many Christmas Trees
