The new animated version starts this Saturday and it looks rubbish from the adverts i've seen. For me it was all part of the character of the original programme to see the puppet strings and the puppet movement of the characters. It was part of my childhood watching it. Seeing the models made with the explosions made it great.

Having a purely animated version just doesn't seem right, no character or charm

Absolutely, captain Scarlet was a good one for seeing strings too ooooooh and marina aqua marina she was hot as hell for a puppet.

This is the voice of the misterons and Joe 90 was seriously cool.

Captain Scarlet, Stingray and Thunderbirds shaped my early childhood.

Occasionally put them on late at night.

Not got much interest in the new animated versions.

Agree with all the above

They interviewed the creator of the original characters, and by bizarre coincidence ( and a lot of plastic ) she looks exactly like the female lead lol
