Thunderbirds Are GO!


tracyfamilyBill Paxton (Jeff Tracey) and Ben Kingsley (The Hood) star in Jonathan Frakes’ update of the classic 1960’s supermarionation TV Series “Thunderbirds”. And because we at Kirk Originals love everything retro, it was only befitting we place our specs on Transom, one of The Hood’s sidekicks.

Set in the year 2010, Jeff Tracey is a billionaire, retired astronaut and leader of International Rescue. From their secret island in the South Pacific, Tracey and his four sons are ready to respond to disasters anywhere in the world at any time!

All is not as peaceful as it seems – enter The Hood, a telekinetic genius, and his band of British cronies. They have been spying on International Rescue and have discovered the location of their secret island. thunder_logoThe Hood wastes no time in putting his sinister plan into action. He cripples the space station Thunderbird 5, forcing the young Tracy brothers to embark on an ill-fated rescue attempt. In their absence The Hood seizes Tracey Island and when Jeff Tracey, Fermat and Tin Tin come to the rescue (with a little help from Brains and Lady Penelope), Thunderbirds are GO!
