Dont know if this has been noticed before ?

The swordfish from the cardback seems to have a hatch cover.

havent noticed this on any prototypes or in the archives.

I noticed the hatch cover ages ago (honest!), but as I've never owned an actual SWORDFISH I had no idea it didn't come with one!
In fact, it's my love of 'openy closey hatch thingy' details that always made me want one. The news that there's just a gaping hole there actually puts me off it a bit.

The hatch probably got changed in the same meeting the gave Phones an AK47 instead of the Blaster type gun he has in the photo. The Swordfisd would have been cool with a hatch.
When confronted by a difficult problem you can solve it more easily by reducing it to the question. How would the Lone Ranger handle this?

I maybe mistaken,but the Cosmic Cruiser on the card back photo looks to have parts off the SW Snow Speeder used for the jets..or am I just mad?

Yup these were the prototypes. I think the red flippers look a bit better than the Blue.

Ah Clear visor, think the green one looks better. A bit more menacing.
