Woodsy,
This is a small die-cast model of Tanusha (Tin Tin/ Kayo) Kyranos' Thunderbird Shadow aircraft.
It's a beautiful little model, well detailed as you would expect from a Japanese construction. It's displayed next to the original Thunderbirds vehicles to give an idea of scale and a comparison too. This model is about the size of a matchbox toy and is manufactured by Takara Tomy. All five of the new Thunderbird vehicles are on sale in Japan as well as FAB 1.
These models are not directly available in the UK, due to copyright restrictions possibly... However as I legally bought them from a foreign buyer the copyright police can go spin!

Just waiitng for the Mole to complete the set (due in November in Japan). Word on the street is that Vivid will be bringing out a toy Thunderbird Shadow next year. Fingers crossed.
ReplyDeleteSend us a pic when you get the full set Yorkie! A big Vivid Shadow would be cool for sure. Just realised that it's main body looks just like the SWORD Task Force 3.
