 Editor's Note
 Gerry Anderson's cult sci-fi series brought "super-marionation" into the forefront. The story follows Jeff Tracy (voiced by Peter Dyneley of MANSTER) and his sons--the eponymous Thunderbirds--as they fly around in their multimillion dollar spaceship, answering calls of distress throughout the galaxy in the name of International Rescue. This MEGASET features the uncut, digitally remastered versions of all 32 episodes.
