A real brainteaser!

Im looking for the name of this series in the 80s.
it was made with animatronic puppets. it was a futuristic story in space!
it wasnt thunderbirds. the storys where gloomy and people died in them.
something about a crew in space in the future. the show came on super channel or sky tv in the 80s. if anybody knows the name of this series, please reply! i was a kid then and its been buggering me for over ten years! Thanks to anyone who knows!

But it was puppets though? Was it Terrahawks?

In the year 2020 Earth is under threat from Martian androids who want revenge on the human race. They consist of Zelda, her son Youngstar and her sister called Sister. An organisation is set up on Earth called Terrahawks, which is top secret to the rest of the world. This is led by Dr Tiger Ninestein with other characters such as Sergeant Major Zero.

i just watched a terrahawks homepage, i dont think it was this series. i remember the captain of the ship hard a beard and was killed by a robot hiding in a wrecked spaceship.
Bah! i hope someone knows what show it was that im talking about.
Thanks in advance.

HOLY SHIT!!! SPUD YOU ARE THE MAN!!!

It might not be wat he was thinking of but I have been woundering wat that show was for years....



I was starting to think I dreamed these guys up... no one could ever help me as all I had to go on was

"You ever see a thunderbird like show with little round robots in it.. kinda like the dudes in that Blackhole movie" and with a description like that I never got anywhere!!! TA!!!

i dont know this show but it intrigues me so i sent it in an email to stump the shark over at jump the shark, so we might get lucky with it

you trying to get the zelda cartoon on dvd?

lol, no that sucks ass and last i heard all the saturday morning cartoons were getting a release towards the end of the year (super mario bros, Zelda, Sonic the Hedgehog, etc.). They suck ass though, won't be buying/downloading any of them... not that big on kids tv /cartoons really.

I just check to see if they've got anything cool in, i had a keyring once that got stolen that i'd like again, and there's some quirky japanese things sometimes. Same goes for resident evil and alien. I always check in to see what there is.

yeah i always check on resident evil stuff, japs and yankees get so much better cooler game merchandise then we do, its not fair
