"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 Carnavin is the leader of Star Command from season one of the live-action Filmation series "Jason of Star Command." Commander Carnavin is played by James Doohan, best known as Scotty from "Star Trek". In fact, he left this series after season one because he had to go film "Star Trek: The Motion Picture".
Canarvin is wearing the exact same costume that Commander Gampu (Jonathan Harris, previously Dr. Smith from "Lost in Space") wore in Filmation's previous TV series, "Space Academy". "Jason of Star Command" is a spin-off of "Space Academy".
