So I discovered the official thunderbirds tumblr account and was scrolling through it looking for the spinning Tracy's.

I saw this and thought, "Huh, why would TB3 dock all the way over there?"

But anyways I continued scrolling, then saw this

That's not 3's designated dock as specified by the previous diagram! That's a much more sensible place to dock if you don't want to throw TB5 wildly off its axis, that's not TB3's special "let's-start-spinning-uncontrollably(in-every-direction)" dock which is PART OF THE GRAVITY RING ITSELF FOR SOME REASON!??

I'm on a Thunderbirds 1965 rewatch and this man needs more love and attention.

Does this fandom exist?

The specs for Thunderbird 5, International Rescue's orbiting monitor.

Do the Thunderbirds as cybertronians.

I think Thunderbird 3 would be cool

Alll the birds as cybertronians

I love this idea it’s great a friend of mine also loves this idea and may be how I get them into transformers

idk how they transform dont ask me

5 and 3 are twins and the rest can be whatever

1 is really arrogant has a big ego and is a showboat

4 has a bit of a stuck up personality

and I haven’t decided for the rest of them

"Thunderbird 5 is International Rescue's space station and the heart of the communications network. Maintained in a secret geostationary orbit high above the earth, John Tracy and his younger brother Alan take turns to man this satellite, with each staying abord for a month at a time. Between them, they maintain a constant vigil across the globe. Through the use of sophisticated monitoring equiment, they are able to hear every radio transmission being broadcasted with special special filters attuned to messages of distress in any language. Born on the 8th of October, 2040, 25-year-old John Tracy was educated at Harvard and followed in his fathers footsteps to become an astronaut prior to his involvement with International Rescue. An electronics expert with a degree in laser communication, John is the quietest and most Intellectual of the Tracy brothers. Slighter in build than his siblings, he is tremendously lith and graceful. As space monitor for International Rescue, stationed aboard the massive space satellite Thunderbird 5, John has ample time on his hands to indulge his favourite pastime of astronomy. Four astronomy and outer space textbooks have been published bearing his name and his incessant space searching lead to the discovery of the Tracy quosor system." -text from the box that thunderbird 5 came
