This is my 2024 colour update of the original Project SWORD toy manual which was included with every SWORD toy back in 1967.
Created specially for Project SWORD Day, my new 24-page Technical Manual is intended as an unofficial update to the late 1960’s Project SWORD line, bringing together images of all toys produced for the line and speculating on how the series might have been extended, using existing designs from Century 21 publications and adding in models which fit well with
the SWORD ethos.
Credit is given where possible and the manual is intended
as a fan publication only.
Enjoy!

Wow, what a great look back at the Project Sword range. A lot of work went in to that. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteVery nice indeed!
ReplyDeleteStaggering piece of work Bill. So much detail and thought. It reminds me of your fabulous toy fleet Codex cards years ago. Thanks for doing this, much appreciated.
ReplyDeleteMajor achievement Bill, beyond awesome! Not only official manual updated & augmented, but also a feast for "Sword" eyes. We need this in print too! Now, where can I get one? Blurb?
ReplyDeleteNice job, Bill.
ReplyDeleteGood lord that is one beautiful book! An amazing achievement! I want them all! SFZ
ReplyDeleteIt's available as a downloadable pdf, as it was originally intended to be made into a booklet, but time was against me. If anyone wants a copy to print out at home, just let me know!

Awesome work Bill! I was able to download the .pdf. The 'Project SWORD' folder on my computer is beginning to bulge at the seams LOL but that's a good thing!
ReplyDeleteWell that's a relief Ed, I wasn't sure if the link would work! Bill
DeleteExcellent work Bill. A fabulous guide to some wonderful designs and toys.
ReplyDeleteAnd well done to all the other key contributors.
