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.
