    I came across this show on Amazon prime and have
    been binge watching. So reminded me of team America
    World Police. I googled and read this was same group who
    did tbirds and stingray. (Gerry Anderson)

    These marionettes are super cool and lots
    of violence and explosions. It's kind of a dark show
    with a cool sixties vibe.

    The neat thing I read is that they were able to
    have proportional heads on captain scarlet show because
    they relocated solenoids for moving lips from the head to
    torso . So that's why in the tbirds and stingrays the heads
    we're so big because it had to hold the solenoid.
