ED'S SWORD DAY TARHEEL BLUE TASK FORCE 1

This
is a blue Task Force No. 1 which came to me several years ago in battle weary condition.

There were no markings to indicate the manufacturer and I'm guessing it's Tarheel? I'm going to have to dig it out and take another look.

I like its scrappy appearance as it lends a certain air of used-ness (I just made that word up LOL). The exhaust cone seems awfully large and I'm wondering if perhaps there's a piece missing?

  1. I bought one of these with the green Nova rocket, years ago from the states. Still got the Nova, but for some reason, I sold the Task force on! Bill

  3. A lovely toy, but it is missing it's cluster of rear thrusters.

  4. A thruster cluster! Luv it Mish. Ed, you could ransack a normal TF1 for it's thruster cluster and paint them.

  5. Not sure if these are Tarheel. The American Task Forces and metallics are fascinating all round.
