5-4-3-2-1... Thunderbirds are go - and they've been going an incredible 50 years.
It's been an entire half-century since the Tracy brothers, their father Jeff, eccentric inventor Brains, and - of course - Lady Penelope and Parker first hit our screens, with the first episode of Thunderbirds transmitting on September 30, 1965.
But for kids, it wasn't the characters that were the real stars of the show - it was those incredible ships that gave the show its name. Everyone's got a favourite - and now we're asking you to pick yours.
The rules are simple: make your pick from the classic fleet, Thunderbirds 1-5. No pod vehicles, no Fab 1 and certainly no Thunderbird 6. Go!

Blu-ray Release Date: May 13, 2014
Price: Blu-ray $29.95
Studio: Screen Media
Thunderbirds Are Go (1966) and Thunderbird 6 (1968), the cinematic evolution of Gerry Anderson’s hugely popular British Sixties TV series, Thunderbirds, arrive on Blu-ray for the very first time courtesy of Twilight Time.
The Thunderbirds were a mix of puppetry (via the patented Supermarionation process, which allowed synchronization of dialogue with marionette movement), sci-fi futurism, action-adventure, and undeniably fabulous Sixties-era design. The feature films Thunderbirds Are Go and Thunderbird 6 weave tales of the adventures of the Tracy Family, a father and five sons who, with the assistance of the glamorous British agent Lady Penelope Creighton-Ward, run International Rescue, an elite team who roam the globe—and beyond—in a humanitarian effort to help their fellow men.
The Blu-ray edition of the Thunderbird films includes the following features:
-Isolated score track
-Audio commentary with film historians Jeff Bond and Nick Redman

The 2004 Thunderbirds movie may have been a critically maligned misfire, but was it really all that bad? Philip takes a look back...
To say that the 2004 Thunderbirds movie is disliked is an understatement, and even now, it's regarded as a missed opportunity. So, what went wrong? Did the film do anything right? Most importantly, can Thunderbirds be rescued?
The film is based on the iconic 1965 puppet series of the same name, created by the then-husband-and-wife team Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. Thunderbirds was Gerry Anderson’s seventh puppet series, and came between his two other most iconic shows, Stingray and Captain Scarlet. Although Thunderbirds only ran for just over a year, it left a lasting legacy. Those nostalgic embers were fanned back to full flame by the repeat season on the BBC from 1991.
The series tapped into the nostalgia of adults and captivated a whole new audience of children,...

Mark talks us through the ten things that ITV's new Thunderbirds series must feature to be worthy of its name...
As a huge fan of the series, I was personally excited to catch the news that Thunderbirds is coming back after a brief fifty year interlude. Frankly, anything to erase the horrific 2004 movie where director Jonathan Frakes turned all my childhood dreams into celluloid nightmares, would be appreciated.
It's not a total homage to the old series I'm looking for, just something without Vanessa Hudgens mugging the camera, and with plenty of visual spectacle. But, whatever happens in each story, everything must blow up at the end, it's the law.
Here are ten other things that need to be in the new series for it to earn a Geek Fab from this site:
1. Fireflash
Ok, strictly not a Thunderbirds vehicle, but very cool all the same.
