Ohh, I do like that. 

[Rick Lowe]

That just looks so right...

How about the USCG variant?

It looks absolutely   wonderful.   Did the Fleet Air  Arm ever get   a  few,   to  drop  X-craft    or MTB/MGBs  near their targets?

[Captain Canada]

Awesome ! Looks great in those colours. Never really thought about how small the payload is tho.....

[Zombolt]

Reminds me of a high tech Gunperry, especially the nose

Like my son littlehman just said "cool"!

I presume this is based on the now somewhat ancient Bandai(?) kit? A pity there isn't a decent sized model of ANY of the Thunderbirds available! Even at 1/144 ( Thunderbird 2 in "reality" being 260 ft long! ) it would be a BIG model! Wouldn't it look nice in current camouflage/markings with a couple of tanks rolling out of the cargo pod?
Fireflash airliner anyone?? Maybe even that magnificent Zero - X  spaceship?

Ah well!! One can but dream! 

Actually, now I come to think of it, isn't it a shame Airfix's otherwise very neat Angel Interceptor is in such a silly little scale? (1/100 I believe) .

  nice model, do you count it as temporary twin-boomer?

[McColm]

That was a boy's name back then.
