[@nickhaswell6011]

Grandstand games where excellent had quite a few of them loved them They are still fun today even for new generations they would love them dated but in a good way and brilliant fun

[@RMCRetro]

Invader from Space 😂 next month "Brother of Mario". This is a real time capsule Colin thanks for giving us a closer look

[@Letstalkretro]

lol yes they never really used their imagination when coming up with alternative names for the games they were clearly making clones of. Cheers Neil.

I had the Tarzan game...quite complex and very fun.

Nice catalogue and looks in pristine condition. My fave was mini munch man. Where was snoopy tennis?

[@ismailburhani7132]

And grandstand star force

What a well put together, colourful catalogue. I had a fascination with the emerging electronic games market back then (and still do) and this video brought back a lot of nostalgia for me. I played the hell out of my 'Astro Wars' and 'Munchman' units. Cheers Lee.

Spartan117TCF, We have a fascination for these games too. As we were editing the video we were thinking we would love to own all of these today. Colin has the Scramble and Mini Munchman shown in the video but that’s it. Maybe something to think about collecting once Colin has finished his quest for all the Commodore 64 Mastertronic games. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍

awesome still alot i need that i never seen before

[@Letstalkretro]

RetroMicky82, Thanks, we would love to collect all of these too. It’s just finding them and then probably affording them that stands in our way. Thanks for watching and commenting. 👍

Great vid!! Have recently purchased the Grandstand Scramble and now after the Firefox and Astro Wars. Love the nostalgia and brings back great memories!

[@Letstalkretro]

Retroplaye, Thanks. Scramble is my favourite, I have an Astro Wars but it won’t switch on so need to try and fix that one. I don’t think I’ve ever played Firefox though. Hope you manage to pick up the ones your after soon. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. 👍

Makes me feel like its Christmas 1983 again. I want one.

[@Letstalkretro]

Retro Tech Ralph, ha ha yes Christmas in the 80’s were the best if you ask us.

[@dragstar4407]

So many memories!

[@Letstalkretro]

DRAG Star, definitely. We just love looking through old catalogues like this. 👍

[@MikeJB6]

I'm pretty sure I had one of those catalogues back in the day. My brother-in-law used to work in a games store (or rather a large store, that had a computer games section in it!) and every now and then he'd bring me back bits and pieces that were going to be thrown out. So much stuff that I wish I'd kept hold of, especially advertising material. Hindsight, eh? :)

[@Letstalkretro]

OldSkoolPixels com, we know what you mean. There is so much stuff that we never kept and would love to have in our collections today. We seem to spend lots of money today buying it all back as well lol. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment. 👍

Nice music, very interesting to see how much stuff they have. I have a Astro wars without battery cover. That battery cover is really needed so do not buy one without. Still need to see which power adapter fits the Astro Wars.

[@Letstalkretro]

Dbn Poldermans, I know what you mean about the battery cover. Once you put the batteries in they tend to pop back out until the cover is put on. At least that’s what happens with my Scramble. Thanks for watching as always 👍

@@Letstalkretro Yes, lol very annoying. Looking forward to the next video's
