Supermarionation Links

Here is a listing of some great Supermarionation related links. You'd be surprised how much interest there is in the works of Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. This is probably not an all-inclusive listing but trust me on this, if you are really interested in this subject, poke around through all of these sites and eventually you'll find everything that's out on the web about the Andersons.

• Simon Wickes works for a company that does SGML development. Check out Simon's TV Century 21 The Gerry Anderson Home Page. It's a real masterpiece.
• J. Lester Novros II has got a real corker of an Anderson site. This guy seems to be plugged into to every aspect of Supermarionation fandom!
• I hear that Peter Elliot was the first person to put an Anderson page out on the web. Check out Peter's original Gerry Anderson Home Page.
• Adam Broom has a very well designed Anderson Productions web site that must be seen.
• Kimberly Murphy-Smith put together the Gerry Anderson FAQ and she does a good job of keeping it up to date. It's loaded with all kinds of useful fannish information.
• Ola Marten's Gerry Anderson Fan Page features downloadable sound files!
• Dennis Nicholson offers a web listing service to those who collect Gerry Anderson collectibles. Be sure to ask Dennis about the Gerry Anderson Memorabilia Guide that he wrote a few years ago.
• Engale Marketing is a mail order/retail business operated by David Nightingale. Not only is David an honest person to deal with, but he has been heavily involved with Anderson fandom since the early 80s. In many respects, he is partially responsible for the resurgence in popularity of Supermarionation in the UK through magazines he published like SIG and Century 21. Engale offers many books, toys, model kits, videos and other things pertaining to Supermarionation.
• Fanderson is the official Gerry Anderson fan club. Their site tells you how to become a member and what you get out of the deal.
• APA C21 is a small exclusive Gerry & Sylvia Anderson fan club. Check them out!
• The Puppetry Home page covers Supermarionation puppets as well as everything on the subject of puppetry from around the world.
• Jim Kaelin's got all of Barry Gray's theme songs digitized and all ready for you to download from his Supermarionation Theme Song Page.
• Want a Thunderbirds picture to use as your Windows wallpaper? Download an image from this Thunderbirds FTP site.
• Though the word Supermarionation was coined when Fireball XL5 was produced, most everyone agrees that what we all recognize as Supermarionation started a few years earlier with Supercar. Check out Austin Tate's Supercar site and see for yourself.
• Speaking of Fireball XL5, check out Austin Tate's Fireball XL5 site too while you are at it.
• The old Stingray toys and other things in Gordon O'Byrne's Stingray Memorabilia Museum will make you green with envy!
• Everybody's favorite Supermarionation program seems to be Thunderbirds. See how many people have Thunderbirds oriented web sites; Ron Kavli, Stephane Felut, Takaaki Nagano, and Peace Frog.
• Captain Scarlet is one of my personal favorites. Realistically proportioned puppets, great models, a cool military organization, and graphic violence. What's not to like? Check out Raj Rijhwani's Cloudbase web site.
• Elizabeth Dubas maintains a nice Joe 90 page when she is not administering her APA C21 Anderson fan club.
• Here is a great Supermarionation Sounds Page, filled with great wave files from Fireball XL5, Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet, etc.

If you think that I am missing a Supermarionation related web site that ought to be listed, please let me know and I'll consider including it in the above list. I don't want anyone complaining to me that I am ignoring UFO, Space 1999, Terrahawks, Space Precinct and all the other stuff that the Andersons produced. Remember, this is a Supermarionation site and not everything that Gerry and Sylvia Anderson did qualifies as Supermarionation!
