SPECTRUM HELICOPTER

From Gerry Anderson’s 1967 TV series ‘Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons’.

The Spectrum Helicopter was a regular mode of transportation armed with a powerful cannon in the nose. Helicopter A42 is featured in the first episode when it is ‘mysteronized’ and attacks Captain Blue at the London Car-Vu.

In 1/72nd scale this would probably come in around 7.5 inches in length - and would sit nicely alongside the actual Airfix model kit of the Angel Interceptor… which is still on sale today.

This would probably a Series 2 kit, and would be either moulded in white or possibly the light blue plastic common with the ‘Luftwaffe’ aircraft.
