Product Description
Imported from England! Made by Product Enterprise LTD!
After Supercar this was a huge leap forward for Anderson – backed with bigger budgets after the success of the first show the new ship showed the ambition of the show with its fabulous design. For many of a certain age this even – more than Thunderbirds – embodies AndersonÆs vision. With Steve Zodiac and crew roaming space anything was now possible in GerryÆs world. This model will measure around 8 inches long.

My son absolutely loves this toy, especially the Junior Fireball, attached to XL5 by a magnet. Looks very durable and very bright colors!

Like the Stingray I reviewed earlier, this is a toy that doesn’t really have any educational value, but like Stingray, this is die cast of a very high quality. The detailing is also exceptional. One really nice feature is that Fireball Junior separates and re-attaches using a very strong magnet. They refer to this as a toy, but the detailing is good enough to be considered a scale model.
Since the series was in black and white, you have to trust the manufacturers to get the coloring right. I had a plastic toy set when I was a kid (I’m talking early 1960′s); a rather large Fireball (18″?) with removable Junior, take-off ramp and buildings. From what I remember, the coloring of this version is right.
For fans of this series, this toy/model would be highly enjoyable.

When I first saw that a Die-cast model of XL5 was going to be released, for a while I was back in 1962.
It was an Immediate “must buy”, but at £39.99 it wasn’t going to be a cheap piece of memorabilia.
The model itself has a comfortably heavy weight to it.
“Fireball junior” (The Nosecone) detaches and reattaches from the main body with a strong in-built magnet.
The level of detail is excellent, even the cabin crew of Steve Zodiac and Robert the Robot.
I have a slight criticism (not with the model) with the Stand that comes with it, it is a bit fiddly to seat the model on. (After playing with it)
But Overall, a great piece of Nostalgia. And worth every penny.
Go on, fly around the Living room in Fireball XL5!

Fireball XL5 the complete series is availalbe on Amazon.com in a 5 disc set for a very afordable price. On the third disc there are “special featurs” showing of color still photos of all the sets. This will help nostalgia buffs identify the proper colors of Fireball XL5 and Fireball Jr. The theme song at the end of each episode is my favorite memory of Fireball XL5!
Sorry about the typos!
