Great piece of kit, just noticed the non-smoking stiker on the underside of the hatch.
Not seen one of those on any other vehicles?

If you steam the big AF stickers off you should have the Q intact underneath.

Yeah, looks like it's been modded with the BAF giveaway stickers.

I like the way the :qforce: on the side is upside-down.

It's a great piece it kit!!

The Palitoy designers must of taken a leaf out of the Hasbro designers book when it came to building this thing, the detail & moulding of this, & the rest of the same years vehicles, are miles ahead of the early non Joe repainted vehicles.

In fact, when I started to read Joe collector guide books, I was very surprised to learn this wasn't a G.I.Joe toy but an Palitoy original design.

I know the :dolphin2: figure that came with this are highly desirable to U.S collectors, but is the Swordfish itself a sought after item across the pond?
