FAB Gear is the North American headquarters for Gerry Anderson fans.
The company is named after the popular call sign from Anderson’s Supermarionation series Thunderbirds, “F.A.B.!”, which stands for nothing at all, according to Gerry Anderson. Fab was simply a popular slang term when the series was produced in 1965, and the producer adopted it for the show. The company’s website is http://fabgearusa.com.”
