TOMY ZERO-X THUNDERBIRDS PACHINKO GAME BY ARTO








Hi Woodsy
This TOMY scoring game comes in quite a large (38 x 19 x 17 cm) plain orange-white cardboard box with simple graphics. It is marked TOMY No. 10001100 / TP-26032 Made In Japan. The box top shows a boy cheerily playing the game, one of the Tracy brothers in lower left corner, plus Thunderbirds 1 and 2 in flight.

The game itself is made of orange plastic, with illustrated panels printed on tinplate. The main panel features TB's 2, 3, and 5 in space along with assorted characters from the series. The upright panel highlights Zero-X zooming away (note Zero-X depicted with only one lifting body). The game is mentioned in Dennis Nicholson's Gerry Anderson Memorabilia Guide on page 124.
Cheers Arto

That is a very cool looking game. It's certainly something you don't see everyday.
