Recently found at the bottom of a river:


http://miniarcade.com/forsale/grandstand-halion-frogger-large.jpg (larger version)

Maybe it once belonged to Isildur. Anyone ever seen a Grandstand LCD Pocket Arcade Game with Watch release of this rare Halion Frogger game? This is probably the wrong forum to say that this fully working, great conditioned item is available for trade. BOXED games I would consider to be part of a trade:

Tiger King Kong (color flip-top version)
Cresta/Halion Jungle Kong (handheld, cartridge, or wristwatch)
Nintendo Donkey Kong Circus Panorama

Get in touch if you can trade a rare Kong for a rare Frogger Smile Don't know of any others like this anywhere in the history of middle earth.

I have the game loose, but hadn't ever seen any of these Halion games in a Grandstand box before...

Hey Rik. From my initial snooping, I couldn't find mention or photos of another Grandstand version anywhere. They must have only very briefly dabbled in trying to sell these Halion games. Maybe their license/deal quickly went bust? I like how the box design follows the pattern of many of their other releases with the diagonal lines and reflective foil paper (this one is sorta of gold tinged instead of the usual silver).

Hi Linda, interesting to learn of another Grandstand box out there. Not surprising that you would have one! Maybe some more will pop up here. With mine the game itself is labelled Halion so you could more easily find a loose upgrade because you don't need one that says Grandstand on it.

Even the picture on the box says Halion it looks like... They made no effort to hide that. Cool
