I replied

Had the Eagle Transporter a a kid, loved it though wondered why it wasn't white - see also Green UFO Interceptor and Blue Thunderbird .

Coveted the Eagle Freighter. There's a blue version of that too

I also had the Enterprise and Klingon D7 from the same range

[Pinwig]

Ooh! I had the Enterpise and the Klingon. They fired little orange discs didn't they?

[Philip Ayres]

Enterprise did, think the Klingon ones were white

[Pinwig]

I think you're right. When did those come out then?

[Philip Ayres]

The Enterprise & Klingon ships? I want to say late 60s, early 70s. They were on sale forever!

Oh the little orange shuttle!

Oh! I'm having one of Shockprowl's nostalgasms. My god I haven't thought about those for years but I had both. Along with the Angel Interceptor with the missile in the nose. Those must have been jumble sale buys by my mum, or passed on from someone else. I had no interest in Star Trek way back then.
