Vintage 1992 Matchbox Thunderbirds Thunderbird 2 Electronic Playset

A large original Matchbox Thunderbird 2 Electronic Playset dating from 1992, based on the iconic International Rescue craft from Gerry and Sylvia Anderson's Thunderbirds.

This is the substantial approximately 41cm-long electronic version of Thunderbird 2, Matchbox model TB-720.

The model incorporates push-button electronic sound effects, including engine sounds and character dialogue.

Condition:

Good vintage pre-owned condition overall with general age-related play and display wear.

The electronic sound functions are working, although the audio currently sounds slightly crackly.

The batteries may require replacement; however, the toy has not been retested with fresh batteries, so no guarantee is made that replacing them will alter the sound quality.

Please inspect all photographs carefully for exact cosmetic condition and to confirm the components included with this example.

Circa:

1992.
