Thunderbirds Are Go for series 3!

Posted on 5th April 2016 by 1266 Nick Williams

CITV has commissioned a third series of 26 Thunderbirds Are Go episodes from ITV Studios and Pukeko Pictures. With series 2 currently under production, this means a commitment to a total of 78 episodes, and reflects the growing commercial success of the Thunderbirds Are Go brand.

2016 has already seen the series marching into new markets. A new trailer was unveiled at Wondercon in Los Angeles in March to mark the show’s roll out into the on-demand media space. Thunderbirds are Go is scheduled to premiere on Amazon Prime Video on April 22nd, with the first 13 episodes available for streaming. Ahead of the launch, Prime members will get a sneak preview with the one-hour special Ring of Fire: Parts 1 and 2.

Building on a consolidated audience of 3 million people in the UK, the series has since been sold to over 40 countries, and had notable successes in New Zealand, where it was the most-watched children’s show across all channels in 2015.

Meanwhile, Vivid Imaginations continues to expand their impressive range of Thunderbirds Are Go toys. The latest additions include an articulated Kayo action figure, a Brains and M.A.X action figure twin pack, and FAB 1, with retractable wings and sound effects.

Vivid releases new Thunderbirds Are Go toys

New toys from Vivid – don’t let the Hood get his hands on them!

The latest additions to Vivid’s impressive Thunderbirds Ar Go toy range include an articulated Kayo action figure, a Brains and M.A.X action figure twin pack, and FAB 1, with retractable wings and sound effects.

A Thunderbird Shadow toy, complete with vehicle and communication sounds, and Shadow Bike, is also imminent.

Having taken it for a ‘test drive’, we can confirm that the FAB1 toy lives up the standards of the other vehicles from Vivid, with some excellently captured sounds. Our favourites being, undoubtedly:

Parker: “I believe we’ve got company, m’lady.”

and

Lady Penelope: “Turn the car around, Parker. I have some international rescue business to attend to.”

The Brains, M.A.X. and Kayo action figures are all highly faithful to the characters as they appear in the series, and are both highly durable and fully poseable.

In the UK, Thunderbirds Are Go toys were the second highest-selling new licensed toys of 2015, while Vivid’s supersize TB3 playset was recently voted the best action toy at London Toy Fair.
