The Corgi Thunderbirds F.A.B. Collection – Thunderbird 4is a superbly detailed diecast model from Corgi.

A newly tooled design, the CORGI Thunderbird 4 die-cast model is a heavily weighted release and represents the first time we’ve offered the iconic submarine as a solo model.

Thunderbird 4, piloted by aquanaut Gordon Tracy, is a 30-foot-long underwater and sea surface craft and one of the fastest craft on or under the sea. Although much smaller than the other Thunderbirds vehicles and with a limited range, TB4 plays a vital role in any underwater rescue operations.

Thunderbird 4 is usually carried to and from the danger zone aboard Pod 4, one of the six pods carried by Thunderbird 2. If required, however, the Thunderbirds International Rescue submarine has hover jets fitted for travelling short distances across land to reach the water under its own power.

A highly trained aquanaut with stints in the Submarine Service and the World Aquanaut Security Patrol under his belt, Gordon Tracy is an expert oceanographer. He is also the designer of a unique underwater breathing apparatus, which he has modified and improved for International Rescue.

Good-natured and high-spirited, he possesses a strength and tenacity that make him a respected leader and commander. He is also one of the world’s fastest freestyle swimmers and is a past Olympic champion with the butterfly stroke.
