The voices have been at work...

...and they have been telling me how to use the other Thunderbird 2 that is on the way.

If you squint... and look at it in a specific way... and imagine things are slightly different...with more legs...

...well, it sort of looks like a beetle, doesn't it?

Get rid of the wings, add some legs (where from, I can't even begin to decide yet), a cockpit (two domes, like eyes?)... add a glowy door at the front, just under the nose...

Could it be a Monolith?

You could put the arc projectors on the legs and have the thing hover like a tomb spider...

It would be a pretty cheap Monolith when the base model (Thunderbird 2) only cost £7-99 including postage.  I have some wooden dowel and a host of Necron bits and bobs to make the weaponry.  I even have the domes needed for the cockpit (thanks to Hello Kitty phone tags from one of those dispensing machines :) ).

It is an idea...

See you in the cold light of a dead sun!

Well the proof of the pudding is in the eating. Go for it as our American cosins would say.
