Nooooooo! Animatronics was a staple of my childhood! I still have my entire collection of all the Thunderbird episodes and the two movies and even the totally crappy live action version. He did lots of stuff. Loved Lady Penelope's Rolls. You will be missed Gerry, but I will never forget you.

I liked his stuff.

Thunderbirds, Space 1999, UFO. All were good stuff.

He left an impression on two generations of sci-fi fans and has created classics that will be remembered throughout the ages.

It's too bad a bunch of shlameils own the rights to a Space;1999 re-boot. they have apparently gotten nowhere with it for quite awhile, not to mention their premise sounds terrible

This thread came up in my searches here for Thunderbirds. The new one is great. AWESOME. Gerry would be pleased.
