I've always liked the Sea Sword that appears briefly in the Project SWORD Annual.
Its a largely a ship but can also travel on dried channels as you can see above.
It would have made a great toy from Century 21 Toys!
Always on the look out for possible stand-ins for the Sea Sword this week I spotted a gorgeous toy craft that might well do.
With its Jet Gyro engines its like something out of Thunderbirds - this East German hovercraft is the business [this pic has been flipped]
Its by a company called Anker.
What do you think?
PS. there is a real craft called Sea Sword from South Korea. Unmanned and military and rather ominous.
Reminds me of the Spectrum Hovercraft out of Koala Base in Captain Scarlet. The Margery Daw connection has just clicked as well!
ReplyDeleteDunno that Hovercraft Wote. Was Koala Base in Oz? Glad Margery clicked! Wondered how you spelt it!
