No problem, I told ya I'd keep an eye out for you.
Looks like the card is open in a way you can remove the sword, have you done so just to hold the actual toy in your hands?

Sadly the two pieces that hold the sword to the card were ripped. So the sword doesn't hold in the card anymore. They didn't shrink wrap this toy and two cardboard pieces popped out of the back to hold the sword. I'm sure the kid who received this back in 1977 just ripped the cardboard to get to the sword. So I will use the card for a backdrop and just use some wire to hold the sword in place and maybe float a little in space. I just need to see how thick of a shadow of I can find.

If anyone sees one of these Space Swords for sale please let me know, with our without the cardboard. Wish I never got rid of mine as a kid during a garage sale. I had many incredible experiences with one of these. Our house was haunted so I used to keep one by my bedside for protection. Currently writing a book about the house and would love to have one of these again and put in my collection of items. Please message me if anyone sees one for sale. Thank you. -Chris
Just keep an eye out on ebay. Search for "Vintage Glow in the dark toy sword", "Toy Box Inc. Glow toy sword", "!970's glow in the dark toy sword". After I couldn't find one for years, I finally got mine and then the flood gates opened. I started seeing them left and right popping up. I almost bought a second one because the prices had dropped. I suggest just keeping an eye out weekly and I am sure one will pop up.

Ebay also has a pretty useful feature I only recently discovered. If you log-in and do a specific search, you can then click a green text-button that says, "Follow This Search" (see image below). Ebay will then send you an email once a day if that item shows up for auction.
I had one as a kid. Long time ago
In a galaxy far far away?
