International Rescue has a host of technologically advanced land-, sea-, air-, and space-rescue vehicles and equipment ready to launch at a moment's notice.\r\n\r\nRacing to the rescue from a secret island base beneath the luxurious home of the Tracy family somewhere in the South Pacific Ocean, International Rescue defies government spies and criminals who want the secrets of their incredible machines for their own. To combat this threat, Lady Penelope, the Thunderbirds' aristocratic English secret agent, and her chauffeur Parker lead a network of agents to uncover those behind the disasters caused by deliberate sabotage.\r\n\r\nA criminal mastermind known as 'the Hood', operating from a temple deep in the Malaysian jungle and in possession of strange powers, often engineers events to allow him to spy on the Thunderbird machines with the goal of selling their secrets to the highest bidder.\r\n\r\nThe iconic Thunderbirds are designed by the Tracy family's close friend 'Brains' and are assigned to each of the five Tracy brothers:\r\n\r\nThunderbird 1, piloted by Scott Tracy - a hypersonic rocket plane used for fast response and rescue-zone reconnaissance, and as a mobile control base.\r\nThunderbird 2, piloted by Virgil Tracy - a supersonic, VTOL carrier which transports their major rescue equipment in detachable pods.\r\nThunderbird 3, piloted by Alan Tracy - a single-stage, vertically launched spacecraft\r\nThunderbird 4, piloted by Gordon Tracy - a utility submersible for underwater rescue, launched from Thunderbird 2\r\nThunderbird 5, manned by John Tracy - a space station in geostationary orbit that monitors calls for help from across Earth.\r\nFinally, Lady Penelope has the iconic FAB 1, driven by Parker - a pink, amphibious car.\r\n\r\nThunderbirds is a cult 1960s British science-fiction television series, created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. It was produced using a combination of marionette puppetry and scale-model special effects, which was dubbed 'Supermarionation'. Two series, totaling thirty-two 50-minute episodes, were produced, along with two films using the same techniques.\r\n\r\nPlayers will work together using Thunderbirds characters and vehicles to complete rescue missions and save the day. For instance, to help complete the 'Attack of the Alligators' mission card, players will try to assemble Thunderbird 4 and Virgil in North America. All the time, being mindful of the influence of The Hood.\r\n\r\nContents:\r\n\r\n4 Reference Cards \u0026amp; 6 Character Cards\r\n47 Missions Cards, 18 FAB Cards, 8 Event Cards, 20 Disaster Cards\r\n30 Bonus Tokens \u0026amp; 10 Pod Vehicle Tokens\r\nGame Rules Booklet\r\nGame Board\r\n6 Character Pegs\r\n6 Thunderbirds models\r\nHood Figure\r\n2 custom six-sided dice \r\n\r\nNo. of Players 1 - 4 \r\nDuration: 45 to 60 minutes\r\nMin.
