  • Thunderbirds are definitely GO!!

    What can I say about this 1960's TV show! Nothing bad that's for sure! I grew up with this show and used to watch it before my mom would take me to school when I was in the first grade! Yes...it is a kids TV show, but let me tell you...the stories are well written and intelligent and you can see that children's programming was not dumbed down to kids in the 60's like it is for today's kids. I still enjoy watching these because the stories are that good and they still hold up to anything that is on TV today! To be honest I consider this show to be waaaay better than many of the adult shows on TV today!! Thunderbirds was a show that was produced by Gerry Anderson (who also created UFO, Space:1999, Captain Scarlet and others) and used puppets as the stars with voice actors providing the voices of the different characters. The premise is that they are team that provides help in drastic situations, hence their name - International Rescue. International Rescue was started by the patriarch Jeff Tracy with his five sons (Scott, Virgil, Alan, Gordon and John) who all pilot, or man, the four rescue craft: Thunderbird 1 (quick response craft), Thunderbird 2 (heavy specialized payloads and craft carried in 6 different pods), Thunderbird 3 (space rescues), Thunderbird 4 (underwater rescues - carried in Pod 4 by Thunderbird 2 to site), as well as Thunderbird 5 (orbiting space monitoring station). With these vehicles, International Rescue are able to respond to any disaster around the world. Of course this show may not be for all people as many may be put off by the puppets and 60's special effects, but I would rather my kids watch this than the kids fare that is on cable today (they treats kids as if they are stupid and have no intelligence behind them at all and do not even try to teach kids any valuable lessons through the storytelling). If you want a television show for kids (as well as adults) with intelligence, action and valuable lessons, then Thunderbirds is an obvious choice. The price ($30.00) is awesome for the complete series (this was put out once before in a Megaset that cost around $100.00). The digital remastering on this series is awesome!! The picture is crystal clear (of course with this means that you will notice the puppet strings easier, but really no big deal) and the sound is available in the original mono as well as Dolby 5.1 surround. I have read that some people don't like the 5.1 sound as it has new sound effects, but after switching back and forth during different scenes I noticed no change in the sound effects. If anything they are more enhanced, utilizing the 5.1 channels to effectively spread the sound throughout the listening space. There aren't many extras except for Launching the Thunderbirds and some PDF files to view. The diehard fan may want more in this area, but for the general person buying this for their kids, or even themselves, will not care too much. All in all this is an exceptional product at an exceptional price and I can't recommend it enough.

  • Thunderbirds are GO !!!

    I bought this DVD set for my husband for Christmas. We both remember the Thunderbirds show when it was on the air. It is great fun to watch these episodes again. DVDs are great quality. I felt that the price was very reasonable. The story lines are excellent, and you can forget that the characters are marionettes. What's life like in 2065? The special effects are fantastic. Some of the gadgets have already come into mainstream life. Gerry Anderson (creator of Thunderbirds) and crew did a fantastic job. If you want to escape, have adventure, watch things get blown up and espionage, this is the show for you! I recommend this DVD set.

  • Thunderbirds memorabilia complete series a gem

    We had to watch more, after finding one full edition on Youtube edited by a fan as a tribute to Thunderbirds. And found this DVD set of the complete series created 50 years ago in the UK by dedicated film artists. The artform Supermarionation is well explained and documented also on Youtube for the viewers' greater appreciation. This complete series gives the viewer a superior viewing experience and a much clearer picture. Enjoy and own this wonderful vintage artform series once again as an adult or for the first time - a fascinating experience. The pyrotechnics are excellent and amazing!

  • Amazingly Entertaining Gerry Anderson Sci Fi Classic

    Vibrantly entertaining Gerry Anderson classic proves that older material is often the best. Vivid characters set in a 2065 time frame features the hallmarks of Anderson's work including land, marine and space based technology all used by the heroic Tracy family at the heart of "International Rescue". And Lady Penelope is the frosting on the cake. Totally enjoyable and way ahead of its time.

  • Such a fine show

    I recall watching "Thunderbirds" when I was but five or six years of age, and I was into it, such as I could understand for that age. It wasn't until the 1990s that I got back into the series, thanks to tapes of the show, and now the DVD collection of the series is even better, as the series is such a thrill to watch all over again, as no matter how close we come to disaster, International Rescue always pulls off the mission very well! I recommend this series to anyone who wishes to present to the next generation what true public service, and also a great television series, are all about, and I thank you.

  • Utterly fantastic 60s fun

    For any nostalgic person, or hobbyist, the sheer amount of work and detail in this show is utterly astounding. I'm in my 20s and I discovered this after watching Team America: World Police and this is where Trey and Matt got the idea. It's pure 60s style and better action sequences then blockbuster bond films at the time. Cant recommend enough!

  • The great puppet masters.

    This is one show that made you want to become a thunderbird/ join the crew and rescue people! This show really brings back the memories. And the things they could do with those puppets they were amazing.
