Homepin Pinball Presents: > 5...4...3...2...1...

What a brilliant theme. What a great tribute to Gerry Anderson. This IS very exciting ! Well done Mike !

I grew up on Thunderbirds. I don't have any merchandise except the UK Box set. My son is right at that age to start watching the shows.

Where do I sign ?

THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO !

I'm thinking this game will have many possibilities. The list of Toys is endless. Obviously the Thunderbirds themselves, and even Thunderbird 2 has a number of machines (inc Thunderbird 4).

Then you have the characters. Outside the Tracy Family, you have Brains, Korano, Tin Tin, Penelope, Parker (Yes Milady!). Obviously "The Hood" will be the bad guy.

Episodes - There's PLENTY of material to create a storyline and ruleset around. I've pulled out the box set and I'll have to watch them all again !

The target audience is the older generation, and lets face it, "who" didn't watch Thunderbirds every Sunday morning, followed by the Wrestling ? I think this is a fantastic theme full of potential that will appeal to my generation (old farts). I think the kids will get into the game once they play it.

My 16yr old son and I,have been watching an episode,thanks to youtube,and he really enjoyed it.I think it will be a winner.

Its still on at 6am on a Saturday.. the youngest kids get up and watch it.. they love it

[goodolddays]

What a TOP THEME Mike ! . I reckon you will be onto a real winner with this  .

Sorely tempted to jump on the preorder list myself .

[Pintoxicated]

Yes yes yes, great theme. 

Animated backglass with TB1 lifting off??????

Plenty of scope for some cool modes and great toys.  I wondered a few times why this theme wasn't ever done back in the day.  I still vividly recall getting up at 6am in the morning, sitting in front of the poxy little heater we had in the middle of winter watching Thunderbirds.  Good memories and if the new series is good, the machine will appeal to both young and almost old  i.e us.

Yeah I agree that this a excellent theme, congrats on securing the licence.
Fingers crossed that the game is a winner.

I am old and I didn't get off on this show at all! Something really creepy about the puppets.
I wish you all the best Mike and to the people that seem to have already preordered.
Was secretly hoping for. SCOOBY DOO.
I look forward to seeing the progress made and artwork.
