We've not had Thunderbirds 1 and 3 in our collection for a while, and this is the first time that Thunderbird 3 is in the correct shade of red-orange, which is sure to delight Gerry Anderson fans. We've improved the font and decoration of the models too, so they are both more screen-accurate representations. These iconic designs are the perfect collector's items for the 60th anniversary of Thunderbirds and come in premium packaging.THUNDERBIRD 1Thunderbird 1, the spearhead craft of International Rescue, is piloted by Scott Tracy, the eldest of the five Tracy brothers. At 115 feet long and bearing a wing span of 80 feet, the rocket-powered Thunderbird 1 is sleek and fast with a top speed in excess of 15,000 miles per hour.Though armed and carrying its own rescue equipment aboard, the principal role of Thunderbird 1 is to get to the danger zone as soon as possible, enabling Scott to assess the situation, advise on specialist equipment required and then direct the rescue operation. Scott can then oversee the rescue either onboard Thunderbird 1 or from the Mobile Control Console which forms an essential part of his equipment.In addition to his Thunderbird 1 duties, Scott often co-pilots Thunderbird 3 with his brother Alan and whenever his father Jeff is absent, Scott’s seniority places him in command of the island headquarters International Rescue calls home.THUNDERBIRD 3Thunderbird 3 is International Rescue’s space rocket piloted by astronaut Alan Tracy. The blond-haired, baby-faced astronaut and champion race driver is utterly dedicated to International Rescue, meeting his tremendous responsibilities with a maturity that belies his years as the youngest brother in the Tracy family.TB3 is the tallest vehicle in the International Rescue fleet, measuring 200 feet in height. Launched from its concealed hanger beneath the Tracy Island Round House, the rocket is used for all space rescues and also acts as a link to Thunderbird 5. Two crew members are required, usually meaning Scott will accompany Alan as co-pilot. Apart from piloting Thunderbird 3, Alan also assists his brother John by taking turns at manning the Thunderbird 5 space station.tem Height - Without Packaging (cm)12.2Item Width - Without Packaging (cm)3.2
