Of course any mention of cereal premiums can't be complete without some of the most sought after premiums - the Gerry Anderson related toys. Thunderbirds was well starred in the cereal world, with a series of figures and the wonderful tiny kits.
Parts as follows:
Thunderbird 4 -single piece casting,
Thunderbird 3- nose, body and angled brackets all separate mouldings
Thunderbird 2- rear jet nozzles, top fin and hull
Thunderbird 1- body and section with fins at base separate.
I also remember a larger more kit like Thunderbird Two with cut out windows in the flight deck.
ReplyDeleteStill got my Thunderbird 2, though it's lost the tailplane
ReplyDeleteBeautiful premiums. Though they are biiger they remind mee of the simple plastic rendering of the SWORD miniatures turning up in Japan.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if the TB 2, Bill mentions is one of the freebies from Smiths Crisps. They were kits.
ReplyDeleteGreat set of cereal premiums!
