COLLECTING

This is a very unusual find, as far as I am aware, this only got released in cardboard packaging, although they can be found in plastic I believe this may be done by the original owners. it came not with an instruction booklet, but instruction cards wrapped in a sleeve. Firstly the boxes as most card ones get destroyed, the cards get lost or at best only the sleeve goes missing, a complete set is very unusual indeed. No Us version is known to exist. There is a Siera variant that did come in a plastic case. I haven't seen this in the flesh myself. but pictures are available.


PLAYING

Not so much a game, more a ticker-tape presenter, you type in messages that appear on screen, I think the purpose was to put intros on your home movies, leave messages for other house occupants on the TV, or maybe in shop windows. not much appeal, which is probably what makes this so rare. But desirable...I think not. Cards come in these languages English. Deutsch. Francais. Netherlands. Italliano. Dansk. Svenska. Suomi. Espanol.
