I is for International Micro-Rescue

As a follow-up to two of the last three posts (Thunderbirds and micro space ships), while I was getting the Jumbo game, I picked this up as a box-ticker for something silly between 99p and a fiver, it's common, modern'ish (1992, Peter Pan Playthings) and fun!

Box and tray; it's all happening on the lid and look at all those mini Thunderbirds!

The mechanism - which I didn't read - is collection tokens (pegs) while travelling 'home you go' style round a board and dealing with stuff as you go . . . I think! Each 'ship' has two holes for it's pegs, and there's no constant scale between them, with 'T4' as oversized as it often is!

The card Tracy Island helps divide the four launch-pads! While more pegs lead to the Hood.

There's a shed-load (small shed!) of exciting artwork littered about to keep the board interesting and the bored interested!

That's it, box-ticked!
