Guy Fawkes board game pull-out: IPC late 1970s

[Pensky]

Bit of a long shot this one, but does anybody remember a Guy Fawkes board game as the centre pull-out from either Whoopee/Whizzer and Chips or Buster, circa 1977-1979?

I recall it was a feature over 3 or 4 weeks and you stuck the centre pages to card to make a Guy Fawkes board game.

My hazy memory seems to recall it but I have no way of checking.

So I'm hoping someone out there can tell me if I'm correct. And even better, the issue dates, etc.

Thanks in advance.

there was a
catherine wheel and the rockets were used like snakes and ladder..

No, although interesting, that's unfortunately not what I remember. It was definately a series of pull-outs that you collected over 2-3-4 weeks to make a game.

But thanks for posting the ad Peter, can you tell me the comic name and date?

These may have been posted elsewhere, Guy Fawkes masks from Whoopee! 1980 and 1983:

They look great, thanks DJDogfart.

Do you have the dates of those issues as I would like to collect them. Thanks.

Yes Pensky, The first one (with the bizarre cut out fiery mask thing) is dated 1st Nov 1980, and the other is from Whoopee & Wow dated 5th Nov 1983, interestingly, it claims to be issue 500 - the 'oo' in 'Whoopee' is cunningly arranged to be the two noughts in '500'. I often wonder whether anyone actually cut them out and either put them on their Guy or wore them? I know I never did!
