PROJECT SWORD TOY COMBOS

Unlike Tri-ang SpaceX, Project SWORD toys were too big to offer in multi-packs or sets, but some were small enough. The obvious contenders for a boxed set would have been the three scouts [I'm discounting the fabled Moon Base Play Set as no known examples exist].

But I had a go about 9 years ago at a Dyna Soar/ Apollo Saturn box set as the two sort of go together in space science.

See what you think.

Which of your space toys would you combine readers?



The whole thing was inspired by a cool Fred Takasumi Dyna-Soar launch painting, forming the background on the rough and ready mock-up box.

  2. A trio of Re-Entry Task Forces in a triple-window Sword box wouldn't be bad either!

    1. Now youre talking Arto! The natural triple. I wonder if C21 ever thought about it? The Scouts could have fitted together on a large blister card do you think?

    2. Easily. Now there's a couple of ideas for custom Sword from the Woodsy / Wotan workbench!
