Thunderbird 3 (TakaraTomy Tomica)

Thunderbird 3 ready for launch! Alan Tracy always kind of annoyed me, I'm not sure why. On paper I should've liked the Thunderbird that went into space more than I did. I think this design more than any of the others belies the 1960's origins of the series. It's slightly reminiscent of the rocketship that took Tintin to the moon.

I love that this looks just like the title card from the TV series.

Some nice trilateral symmetry.

Flight stand port.

"1, 2, 3, fly with me!"

Too close for comfort.
