I'm currently building the new kit of the Thunderbird 2 launch bay, which is quite a big job. It comes with a huge collection of pod vehicles.
I've put them together but have yet to paint and detail them. Just looking at them like this though, I thought that if Kinder eggs had included pod vehicles, this is what you would've got!
As an aside, doesn't this fire vehicle look a lot like the, as yet unseen, SpacexII crash tender?
Back to it,

they are neat little models, and so many! Wonder whybsome are duplicated too? Is the model a recent release?
ReplyDeleteThe model is a fairly new release by AIP, which is Bachmann. Some of the models are more accurate retools of the old Imai ones, but the old ones ate still included. Some are there more than once because they happen to be on the same sprees as parts that the kit needs several of.

ReplyDeleteWhere are the elevator cars?
ReplyDeleteGood question. Not in this kit, a serious omission. It is noticeable that the new ones, Firefly, Mole, Excavator and Recovery Vehicle (latter not shown in photo as I'm still making them) are well better than the earlier versions.
ReplyDeleteI had no idea
ReplyDeleteGood to see Lan Tracy's red sportster getting a look in! Can't be many models of that!
ReplyDeleteAlan! Doh!
ReplyDeleteYep, I'm not sure it's all that accurate but at least it's there. I've started painting them all now. This could take some time!
