RACETRACK Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 hello, Thunderbird 4 was a, Imai kit with a toy soldier conversion for Gordon. The statue and weed are aquarium decorations. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favourite Thunderbird, unfortunately never managed to snag a kit (well, I do have the new super-deformed one by Aoshima). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like the kit I have that I built when I was a kid. I've a mind to remake it some day, but wonder where I'd get new decals from. Nice work on the dio - the buddha is very effective Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RACETRACK Posted September 5, 2020 Author Share Posted September 5, 2020 thanks I'd had it in mind as soon as I saw it in pets at home! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kallisti Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 I love the setting of this, very atmospheric and you expect The Hood's submarine to be just out of shot ready to pounce! The Bandai is a reboxing of the Imai but the better kit to get as it has a more accurate shape is the Aoshima one. I compare the two in my build of this from a few years back: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
