SWORD Value Pack of Party Fun

Recently I blogged a set of spaceship party favours, which were available on Ebay. Eagle-eyed Paul V spotted the similarity of one of the toys to our friend the Zero X [thanks Paul]. Well, mention the words SWORD and MINIATURE and I go all funny and my brain says BUY, BUY, BUY! So I did. This is what was in the header carded bag...
 and nicely laid out.....
 and the header card......
and picking out a few and posing them with the SWORD manual......
Until we get to the star of the pack, yep, a miniature Zero X! And it comes in three colours including blue! Too much!
Placing the two best lookalikes from the bag, the 'Probe Force 1' and the 'Zero X', together with the TF2 from the real SWORD mini series from Japan [middle], they don't kook half bad really! What do you think?
