Thunderbirds Are GO

 

 

 

 

 

Hello & welcome to my THUNDERBIRDS pages.

A few background notes to start with............

 

Back in 1965, an enthralled 6 year old, caught up in the TV adventures of International Rescue naturally wants all the toys and stuff he can get his hands on...............

Now, fast forward some 40 plus years & we find the same child with the same ambition.............

Only THIS TIME.............he's in charge of the purse strings.

 

My collection is based on 1960s items that were available in the UK, so no Japanese items, no American items, no Spanish items, no 90s or later items, certainly nothing from the live-action film & most definitely NO REPRO (Well almost.........).

As such, these pages are not meant as any definitive THUNDERBIRDS or Gerry Anderson merchandise guide- someone else can try & compile that.............Hello Dennis.....

The items & opinions contained within belong to me, unless otherwise stated, and relate to my collecting experiences.

 

Please scroll down the page & follow the links below to take you to the relevant sections. Apologies if the navigation is crude but my knowledge of HTML etc is limited & basic.

All links are blue unless otherwise stated.

Tracy Island will ALWAYS bring you back here.

Thunderbird 1 gets you BACK to the sub-section index page.

Some links will not work at present, but give an indication of what is to come. Further pages will be added when I have the time & inclination.

If you know exactly what you are looking for here please use the  page where individual items are indexed & listed by maker.

If you've visited before, thanks for coming back & check the page where updates are now listed.

 

I hope you find something of interest here or something that may be helpful if you are considering buying any merchandise yourself, as, all items are complete - to the best of my knowledge & belief - unless otherwise stated.

 

 

Oh, in case I forget, there's one piece of 1960s merchandise that appears on each & every page.....................the wallpaper.

Thanks & praises to:

Dennis  Nicholson: Without his Gerry Anderson Memorabilia Guide it would have been almost impossible to ascertain who actually made some of this stuff.

 

Another example of a reference guide. This one was done in real time by Century 21.
