Project SWORD was a series of toys produced by Century 21 Merchandising (associated with Gerry Anderson's Century 21 Productions), and two series of comic strips and text stories appearing in publications by Century 21 Publications.

"Century 21 Merchandising" was created to market products produced by "Century 21 Productions" - in particular Thunderbirds and Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons. They acquired a line of science fiction toys manufactured in Hong Kong, which they marketed under the name "Project SWORD". The line also included a model of Zero X, the spacecraft which first appeared in the film Thunderbirds are GO.

A comic strip series based on the toys appeared in the comic "Solo".

After Solo folded, a second series of stories - text, illustrated by comics artists such as Ron Embleton and Don Lawrence - appeared in TV 21. There was also an annual for "Project SWORD" featuring text and comic strips.
