Like the Thunderbird 1, this Bandai Thunderbird 2 has profile issues. Like the Konami and Taito models, it's nose isn't quite right.
However, it's still an attractive model, and although slightly bigger than the Dinky, Matchbox or Corgi versions, it doesn't have those intrusive buttons that spoil the lines.
It comes with a set of push-in legs and a detachable pod.
Rather than the usual Thunderbird 4, it comes a small Mole model.

What's inside.
Like the Thunderbird 1, you get additional stickers and a toy catalogue leaflet.
In spite of it's profile issues I still think its a great looking model. It can also be found as part of a deluxe set with additional pod vehicles.
It looks like a nice solid quality model Scoop. I do like the fact that it has a slightly different shape. It adds variety to a collection. Thanks for posting. :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it Tony. It does look good next to my Dinky TB2.
DeleteI just have to get a Jet Mole now to complete that particular set.
