Carded Space Sword

Carded Space Sword

Not long after I finally reunited with my childhood fave, a kind soul passed along an ebay auction for this carded version of Space Sword. Something I probably haven’t seen or thought about since I was about seven years old.

While I seem to also recall these being sold in bulk “dump bins” as a kid, I couldn’t resist the image of beautiful copyright infringing “droid”.

 

You can just hear him say “Suck it Lucas”. The quest is totally over, thanks interwebs!

    Holy kee-ripes!! I had one of these and had 100% TOTALLY forgotten about it! My too-kind parents were obviously trying to fill that insatiable Star Wars-hole (which wasn't helped by living in Southern Ontario, Canada — all the cool Star Wars merch took extra time to make it's way up North of the 49th!).
    Thanks for the incredible memory-jolt!!

    This was my favorite toy growing up. Hard glowing plastic could defeat the monsters under my bed and in my closet, not to mention the furnace monster in my Aunt Vicki’s basement. I turned 50 this year and thought I would never it again except in memory. It is nice my old friend again.
