S.W.O.R.D wasn't the only project around.
There was Project Mars!
This lovely plastic rocket was launched by Red Box ... or is it Redbox?
T in a Circle [Tai Hing] did something similar called the Apollo-X.
I associate Red Box more with spy attache cases.
There's a whiff of the Project SWORD Probe Force 2 fuselage as well now I'm looking at it.
Have you got a Project Mars toy or similar?

I had some sort of Japanese rocket ship toy back in the early 1970s, which had working swing-out wings (inspired by you-know-who), and it too had one of those cool boxes which were custom designed to the shape of the toy. I think I loved the box as much as the toy!
ReplyDeleteI wonder what it was Zigg, your toy rocket?
