I am quite sure not. There are a few models of the original series Thunderbird2, but not this concept. It looks nice and promising by the way...

Drama!

Question - how is anything going to get out of the pod, this TB2 has 3 legs, 1 at the front, thus blocking the pod front. That's why the original has 4 legs. Moral - if it aint broke, don't fix it.

The new one is all the improvement we needed.
New and improved, with all the best bits of the original.

I think it looks hot! It’s only a concept.
Very much dislike the current "revision", looks too toy-like, but that was probably the goal thinking the movie would make a splash.
For me, only the original is the best.

We haven't even brought up the "movie" version
...don't even remember what that one looks like.
And I wouldn't call it "current".

TBaGo is the "current" (as I posted).

Actually, the concept one above kinda reminds me of the movie version, which used drawers that lowered instead of a separate pod.

Though why the concept has forward facing engines I dunno.
