MOONBASE CENTRAL: FAB1 AND THUNDERBIRD 2

Sunday, 6 November 2022

Seeing the size of FAB1 against Thunderbird 2 on Thunderbirds Wiki it struck me that FAB1 could have easily driven into the TB2 pod.

So did FAB1 ever go into the TB2 pod in the TV series or did TB2 ever lift FAB1 and drop it off? Anyone know?

Can't instantly think of one. Does Fab1 travel in the hold of Fireflash? It certainly goes into Skyship 1.

Cut from the film Thunderbirds are Go, FAB1 travels to the US in Fireflash. Sadly in Thunderbird 6, FAB1 in the hold of Skyship1 when it's destroyed along with FAB1 St the end of the story.

So I guess it's an "in plot point" for the new looking FAB1 in the CGI augmented series.

Yes I was thinking that Kevin, its the episode with Sylvia Anderson in isnt it? Although it's supposedly the original prototype FAB-Zero.

Looking at the photo above do you think that the TB2 prop was huge?

I think that is the very large "Front End Only" prop of TB2. From memory, it was about three foot in length.
