I have an old circa 1988 Shadowsword and I'm wondering if the new Forgeworld ones are the same size?

I also saw on a website a picture of another different type of metal Shadowsword that looked larger than the one I have, are there 3 versions - 2 metal GW and one resin Forgeworld?

The forgeworld ones are quite a lot larger; they're a truescale 1:5 reduction of the 40k model.

Correct, there are a total of three versions, two by GW and one by FW.

Thanks for the replies. I will definately be upgrading my metal Shadowswords to the larger Forgeworld ones.
