A couple of pictures showing a slightly altered Tracy Island toy . Thunderbird 2 looks like it has a slight pod problem on the first one, but overall I can't wait for the toy's release in July.
That looks like a pretty sizable thing, Mike. Even if the vehicles would be the same size as the 1990s Matchbox toys, this island would easily be more than twice as big as the one that came with those. And with the more intricate mechanisms I see as well, that will end up costing a pretty penny. I wonder how well it will sell. Take up quite a bit of room too.
There's quite a few subtle changes to this toy in comparison to the prototype we saw earlier. The round house is lower, and there's more detail on the glass buildings. There's probably other things too which other folk will spot. It will apparently retail at around £80 but I suspect there'll be a few discounts around. How it sells? Your guess is as good as mine. As we know the original Tracy Island was a sell out, but that was something new based on the old series. This is just the opposite!
