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.

PROFESSOR E.J. PARSAFOOT

Professor E.J. Parsafoot is the quirky scientific advisor at Star Command and an instructor at Space Academy in the live-action Filmation series "Jason of Star Command", played by Charlie Dell. 

For the body, I used a "Mockingjay" Finnick figure. Finnick's head was used for the Jason figure. For Parsafoot's unique features, I had a hard time finding the right face for him. I ended up using a WWE Bo Dallas figure's head. I shaved down his jawline and added a larger forehead, as well as crazy hair, eyebrows and a mole.
