It turns out, from what Phil of Fab1 tells me, that the Zelda puppet is actually a recreation using a model he owns but the Ninestein, and everything else, is presumably original - including the cube and the rather tasty Terrahawk model!The gentleman signing is actually from Revelation, not someone associated with the original production. Julie, from Revelation's agents, tells me that they simply bid for the rights to the series and won it. Gerry Anderson apparently sold his rights so there wasn't a conflict issue, it was just that nobody had picked it up. So my take on it is that as it wasn't part of Anderson's portfolio it was simply getting overlooked. Revelation apparently go for this sort of thing - i.e. anything that's fairly cheap to bid on! Clever, though, if you know what nostlagia strings to pull...
