BLOGGIVERSARY GRAND FINALE: PROJECT SWORD TOYS AT CENTURY 21 STUDIOS - ID COMPETITION - AND THANKYOU FOR EVERYTHING IN YEAR ONE!



So here we are SWORDHEADS! The first year over and a new one beckons - well it actually started on the 16th September but we we're too busy partying! To celebrate the final night of the first bloggiversary we have an excellent SWORD competition! You'll need all your SWORD toy nouse and a bit more to have a chance of winning. The rules are simple: identify ALL the visible toys and/or boxes, SWORD AND THE REST, in this fabulous Century 21 crew shot supplied by Alan Shubrook. The first three full answers sent to me HERE by next Saturday Night, Halloween, Midnight GMT will win a prize. ONE ATTEMPT PER READER SO DON'T BLOW IT! You might have to get your magnifying glass out! You must identify by name ALL the toys and/or boxes shown, not just SWORD.

THE PRIZE: an A4 copy of the above Alan Shubrook photograph of the Century 21 crew (from Alan's book Century 21 FX Unseen Untold) printed on photo paper by Alan, perfectly framable AND SIGNED exclusively for the blog with a message by its taker, Alan! Short of a picture in the C21 toy department making SWORD toys, this photograph is as close as you'll get to PROJECT SWORD in it's home at CENTURY 21 Studios in Slough. Wow! This photo is the same as the one in Alan's book listed above. PROJECT SWORD OR WHAT!

Best of luck SWORDHEADS! Thanks for all your help, support, enthusiasm and general swordiness during Year One of the blog - that's 46,750 hits! Here's looking, like a Dyna Soar pilot peering at the Sun, to a FAB and glorious Year 2! Woodsy
