Here we go again, out with the old and in with the new. Today marks the release of the Thunderbirds Blu-Ray DVD set. According to reports, the episodes are cropped to 16:9 ratio, so you get the filled screen, but lose, you know, content from the top and bottom of the screen. Its unclear how much the images have been cleaned up, but its not unrealistic to expect a fairly decent transfer from a clean source. The audio has also received the hi-def treatment and only comes in 5.1 and 2.0 Dolby, which means no mono. Not the end of the world, hopefully the jacked up explosions will be minimal.

Price on this is a bit steep, too: £90.98. It's now available for order from Amazon UK.
