Amazing Thunderbirds Behind the Scenes Piccys!
5....4....3....2....1....Thunderbirds are GO!
We can still remember it now, the opening titles, the excitement of getting to see what the heroes of Tracey Island would be up to next and what catastrophe or evil villain they had to deal with, all taken in their bouncy, puppety stride.
For as long as we can remember, we've been the biggest fans of Thunderbirds along with a whole line of kids from its humble beginnings back on September 30th, 1965 (nearly 49 years ago!).
It had everything, the characters, the gadgets, the cars, the planes and of course....its own Island! Not only that, but at every moment you found yourself trying to spot the strings (which wasn't tricky) and also when they had used someone's hand....probably the tea boy's, but all the while trying to believe it was all real. Simply magical!
Now, hopefully some of these won't act as a spoiler and perhaps young fans eyes should look away, but we've been busy digging out some of our favourite pictures of the creative geniuses putting together this iconic show for you all to see. Take a peep at our amazing 'string' of classic behind the plasti-scenes pictures (not even sorry) :) Enjoy!
How cool are they?! We had such a blast getting to search through and sniff out some of our favourite behind the scenes snaps, and not only that, we've also been getting to bust out some of our FAB new range of Thunderbirds Bags and Wallets! Take a look...
