I had the SHADO2 ground vehicle as a toy. (SHADO = Supreme Headquarters
Alien Defense Organization). Great toy. The missile launcher flipped up
on
the back of the vehicle. My friend had the interceptor.
The show was pre-1975, though. I think it was 1970 to 73 era. I remember
watching it on its first run. I was being "babysat" by my aunt while my
parents were out bowling. In 1975 I was in grade 8 and a little old to
be
sleeping at my aunts until my parents picked me up. :-) More likely
1970
when I would have been in grade 3.
