Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons

One of Gerry Anderson's later shows, it was the first of his Supermarionation shows to have puppets that looked 'in proportion'. The puppets had (relatively) realistic faces. The method of puppetry was also different. The puppets were controlled via a rod that came up from the floor. Due to this method, you will never see any of the characters' legs as they are walking, becuase it wasn't possible to move them correctly.

Captain Scarlet is an agent working for Spectrum. An organisation that fights against the mysterious Mysterons from Mars.
