Gerry Anderson’s Firestorm, the new puppet series that has been seeking crowd funding via Kickstarter, is going ahead.

The Kickstarter closed yesterday evening after 1,415 supporters gave their financial backing, and pre-production on the minisode will start in two weeks’ time. £88,931 was pledged, which allowed various extra stretch goals to be funded, which included a massive explosion from Mike Tucker and the Model Unit, and the creation of an extra Ultramarionation project.

Sci-Fi Bulletin will continue to report on the progress of this project.
