    The thing with Dinkey, noticeably with the Eagle,Angels & Interceptor is there market research ( which probably amounted to a pub lunch) led them to believe kids would find mainly white toys boring.

Now that is real Attention to Detail! Yeah, I would not be brave enough to send it Round the Track, it would be an NRFB for sure with me...

    I’m shocked it’s not just a upgraded Dinky! I thought that’s all the Corgi Gerry Anderson stuff is. Is it better to scale it was representing? Or was it cost cutting? And is the base or bottom half die cast too, or plastic like the later matchbox ones? And I agree with the TB2 I honestly don’t understand why they haven’t got rid of the obvious buttons (even paint them differently so they blend in.) But why not use a fake panel as a button, doesn’t ruin the looks and is discreet. But I have always hated it had plastic thrusters and legs (the dinky one had better detailing for the inside of the thrusters.) I would rather all metal, and more detail on it, more pods, vehicles, attachments, stands, fake thruster flames, for all the TB! Hope they make a TB5. Also the new Stingray could have been a bit better more gadgets, and just a bit bigger. Glad they made diecast version of it thiugh. And have you seen the new DB5 I was excited looks good, but then it’s only half way there. Doesn’t have the all the gadgets if the original. Why? I would happily pay more for such. I would love to see a new mould with extra details and all the gadgets and maybe more of the DB5 too. They know we want it so why aren’t they doing it? It’s blowing my mind. Sorry for the long post it’s just so annoying sometimes. Thanks for the video im close to preordering one and maybe a few more items.

    Hi Lorenz! I fitted a 2200W inverter in my MB Sprinter. Similar configuration as you have with a leisure battery. I used an original MB start battery, AGM type,220Ah, 1150A. Will this battery do the job? What kind of battery do you use? I didn't change the alternator yet, its still the original one of a normal Sprinter van, not like in a camper van?! Regards, Edwin

    Oh what a beauty! My local model shop had one in, I was tempted but it's a lot of money to pay for something that would just be displayed in my cabinet and not run! I watched Thunderbirds growing up but not obsessive about collecting memorabilia... I'd be too concerned about damaging it during a crash, to run it on the track.😊

    This was a massive lost opportunity for Corgi. I had originally wanted one when they first announced it, but seeing the gross shape and detail errors, I no longer want one. The hull is the wrong shape, the iconic missile-tubes are massively wrong in shape (should not be squared-off at the back like that!), it's just so so so very disappointing compared to what could have been.

    Biggest Scalextric models ever I think have to have been the Leyland Roadtrains from back in the 80's, both were full artics with the trailer too. They were... Interesting to race with. Can I give you a tip, run it occasionally, but don't go fast or risk coming off. It's a nice model and should be run but not for racing by any means.
