I havent seen Thunderbirds on Tech TV, but I have a short clip of it on an old VHS along with the Silverhawks pilot, Captain Nemo, and some other things. It was created in 1965 by Gerry Anderson. I never really liked the whole puppet thing, I think they're quite creepy looking (like the Grays), but its called supermarionation and Anderson made a whole slew of frightening looking children's shows using it. Including the only childhood pleasure my father admits to rembering Firebird XL5.
