This is exciting for SWORDies like me.
This looks like a normal boxed Thunderbird 7 / Project SWORD Beetle by Imai.
But it contains the elusive WHITE version of the model!
The usual version is orange as pictured on the box.
I really like this white version and may look out for one in the future.
I think it was released in the 1980's.
I saw this beauty online and saved these pictures.
Have you got one?
You can check out the Japanese source yourself here
That is one beautiful SF beast! One of the great knock-offs the Japanese did so well. Good find!
ReplyDeleteAnd of course a great Shigeru Komatsuzaki illustration! Worth it for that alone!
ReplyDeleteYep, that's the hand of Shigeru and as such makes this the only project SWORD related box art that'has a known artist Zigg.
