The original Thunderbirds television series was produced in a time before
CGI and computers. Skilled model makers and technicians created several
models in varying scales depending on the shot required in the storyline.
This coupled with camera lighting from different angles means the various
craft do appear to be different colours in certain scenes. The paint codes
provided are a basic guide and we would suggest watching the episodes
and referring to the box photo for further detailed information.
