The Wizard No. 102 (22 January 1972) and 162 (17 March 1973). Either they had a lack of new ideas for free gifts at this point or they had ordered huge amounts of these. Probably a bit of both. Can't remember the same free gift being given away so soon after the last one though.
It probably reappeared many times after this as well. In September 1982 The Victor gave away the very similar looking Super Whizzo!
Wonder how it would have fared against the Space Spinner (2000AD, Eagle) or the Turbo Flyer (Tornado)?

Hello! for the monty python ask game:
✍️🎶🎩🎢🌠
(tysm for asking this... again lmao. this should be fun.)
✍️ favourite sketch
obvs one of them is the crazy frog/whizzo chocolate sketch (from the series, live versions are okay. series is top tier) but there are many others. another underrated one i'll give a mention is the beethoven rat catcher sketch. but again, there are countless others.
🎶 favourite song/musical number
perhaps a bit basic but i do really love christmas in heaven & i have quite a long history with always look on the bright side so i'd have to take the classic in as well.
🎩 favourite sketch featuring graham
super difficult because i love almost all of the sketches graham is in (minus the ones that are controversial... to say the least). the one i'm currently rewatching most is the exploding penguin one. another underrated would be – i don't know its name – but the first bit of the golden age of ballooning where he plays the butler.
🎢 favourite character from flying circus
virtually every character john does with his little "hellou" voice. an underrated graham one would be the officer from the expedition to lake pahoe.
🌠 favourite post-python project
admittedly i haven't watched much post-python thus far. i've seen the majority of fawlty towers, not really post-python but not too fond of it if i'm honest. i've seen eric in casper. very sweet. i have to rewatch a fish called wanda because the first time i watched it i didn't really get along with it. but usually american comedies don't do it for me the first time anyway (even if they have british actors in them). terry g's fear & loathing in las vegas is awesome. also needs a rewatch but i wouldn't say i really have a favourite so far.
(as you can tell i don't really like settling for favourites so i usually just bring up underrated things i enjoy but regardless... this was fun. do ask for more if you like.)

The man who FILMED the TIC TAC UFO speaks on camera for the first time
Premiered on 28 Jul 2021
For the first time on camera... Commander Chad Underwood clarifies and informs what happened when he encountered and recorded what is now the most famous modern UFO footage of all-time. Cmdr. Underwood is a badass Navy Weapon Systems Officer from VFA-41 (the legendary Black Aces). He was flying in an F/A-18 Super Hornet - and was responsible for fighting the aircraft. Underwood’s testimony represents the first time in history a military “whizzo” recorded a UFO during operations - and the encounter footage has been confirmed directly by the United States Government as being ACTUAL footage of an Advanced Aerospace Vehicle of unknown origin - a real UFO.
Cmdr. Underwood’s account and footage also represents independent corroborating evidence to accompany the experience of Cmdr. David Fravor - the man who CHASED a TIC TAC shaped UFO with his fighter jet for our military.
The advanced and unidentified craft they observed and engaged that day - was able to outpace & outmaneuver our nation's most advanced war planes. It did in-fact “zoom off” to the left of Underwood’s wing - and it broke the lock on his ATFLIR targeting pod. It had no typical aeronautics or aerospace propulsion signatures - no tail, no wings, no exhaust plumes - and it also was able to Offensively Jam our fighter plane's radar & weapons systems. This is NOT an isolated event - quite the opposite.
Under the circumstances of this encounter - this is considered an ACT OF WAR by the United States Department of Defense. And typically - there are consequences. However - nothing about Cmdr. Underwood’s & Cmdr. Fravor’s experiences - were typical.
What you are about to hear in this interview is important. It has historic value. It’s evidence - of advanced and unknown aerospace vehicles operating in our restricted airspace - with impunity. Displaying instantaneous acceleration and impossible speeds - technology, we simply do not have. If this is not a National Security issue - I don’t know what is.
Certainly, this is an existential conundrum - and it’s time we face the UFO reality head on - whatever it might represent.
But let’s hear what Commander Underwood has to say about it - after all - he is the man that filmed it… and he was there.

An ad for the Catapult Skimmer given free only with The Hornet in 1963. Don't worry if you missed out though as it would be given away free, usually with a name change (the Wiz Whizz, the Super Whizzo for example), with many other titles over the years. DC Thomson.
