The Unofficial Airfix Modellers' Forum

I have been eyeing up Thunderbird 3 as a potential build, and this is making me really want to get one! Absolutely great stuff! I half expect to see Virgil walk out of it. Admittedly rather woodenly and with a whole host of strings attached...

I think we should have one, but maybe next year to allow people to source kits from Japan if necessary.

Count me in for that...

Sorry Andrew, forgot to say I'm thoroughly enjoying your build - I've been a huge Gerry Anderson fan for years and years. I've had the Imai Joe90s Car on the bench for ever but have stalled in not being able to source the right shade of Viridian Green for it - damn my modelling OCD!!

Very sad. I may have to make a FAB 1 as a tribute.

FAB1 was air-capable so the 1/32 one would qualify for the large scale wingy-thingy GB...

Yes, it would .... fall in neatly right after the Sparrowhawk .

Awesome work on the Thunderbird. I'd go for an Anderson G/B.

All the best.
