Growing up in the 60s era for kids TV , I'm sure everyone knows of their work! Supermarionation!
Fireball XL5
Super Car (short lived)
Stingray
The Thunderbirds
Captain Scarlet
Joe 90
Given back then they had no special effects.so they relied on camera tricks.
Stingray was my favorite. That must have been some awful place to live where they built a city on hydraulic jacks , so they could lower the buildings in case of missle attack! & Why did the crippled comander drive around in a mobile toilet?
