SUMMER OF SWORD FANDERSON BADGE

Well the summer just got hotter! A while back I suggested to those friendly guys over at Fanderson that they might consider reproducing the SWORD badge as part of their range. They agreed! Using one of my 'Astronaut' badges [above bottom] they have produced what I think is a totally fab replica metal enamelled pin badge as you can see above [top]. Not available to the 'general public', you need to be [or become] a member of Fanderson to purchase it [along with their metal Zero-X badge and countless other great items of exclusive merchandise]. I thoroughly recommend joining. The next issue of their magazine FAB [67], out in November, will have an article about SWORD by the very team that brings you this blog no less! And you'll get the latest updates on the upcoming TV21 convention this October in Bristol. It'll be my first con and I can't wait [just got to talk the missus into going as well. Don't wanna be Billy No Mates!].
