(...) Aaron: Could you check out my wants page and let me know if there is an MB sword type that you know about that is not listed there?

  Re: A NEW CASTLE Wishlist
 
(...) There are two types of MB castle swords. If you go to my parts wanted page, you will find what I am calling "Mega Bloks Sword 1" and "Mega Bloks Sword 2" [note: those are just scans, not properly scaled or sized in relation to one another] -- (...)
