I would have preferred something a bit bigger. With a supersize Thunderbird 3 about to be released, I wonder if we'll see a larger Shadow toy from Vivid at some point.

The film versions had their merits too, but as I didn't buy many examples it would be hard for me to judge, Woodsy.

Sadly not impressed with TB-Shadow. The sleek jet has been bloated up to get the electronics inside and given a stocky blunt nose so the kiddies don't injure themselves. Nowhere near as good as their TB1,2 and 3 toys IMHO.Yorkienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2156181044707591026.post-18770692102527682542016-01-23T21:00:58.359+00:002016-01-23T21:00:58.359+00:00Super new toys those Scoop!

Do you think these new designs and toys are better than those from the film from the early 2000's?WOODSYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13456645970983569001noreply@blogger.com
