Jason of Star Command

"Jason of Star Command" was one of the few live-action series created by Filmation.  It aired during the Saturday morning cartoons on CBS from 1978-1980.  It was serialized in the style of the old "Buck Rodgers" and "Flash Gordon" films, and it certainly captured that essence, with a 1970's twist.

"Jason of Star Command" is a mostly-forgotten classic that deserves far more recognition than it receives.  I've created this custom figure set to give my generation a blast from their past, and to pique the curiosity of younger sci-fi fans who may have never heard of it.

COMMANDER STONE

Commander Stone, a blue-skinned Tantalusian, is the leader of Star Command from season two of the live-action Filmation series "Jason of Star Command." Stone, the strict "by the book" Commander, is played by John Russell. Known for starring in countless Westerns and war films, this was his first and only sci-fi role. According to the JoSC DVD commentary, he really hated having his skin painted blue.

The body was the WWE Bo Dallas body that was left over after I used the head for Parsafoot. The head is the MOTUC Standor (Stan Lee tribute) head. It's ironic that the head already had blue skin, although I repainted it a different blue.
