Only one in 1/43? Well, what about this very old Dinky Toys?
And, wow! Is this the modern reincarnation of old car?
Would like to see it in 43rd scale too! |

Yes, that's the one, Mike; Gerry Anderson's creation from the mid 1960's. I think Thunderbirds were a staple diet for all kids back then :o)
This model of F.A.B.1 is the only Thunderbirds piece I have seen in 1/43. It would be very cool to have some of the pod vehicles, too - like the Mole, the Firefly, Thunderbird 4, etc.
Interesting, F.A.B.1 is one only two Rolls Royces ever to have a sloping radiator grille - and the only one to be authorised by Rolls Royce (the other is the Jonckheere Coupé)

That is very cool. Is that from the old TV show? There were so many cool vehicles, particularly the flying ones. I wonder if those have been done in 1/43? I used to watch that show as a kid, it was kind of like pre-clamation, stop gap animation. |
