Gday from Oz

Gday peeps,

Stumbled upon this site about a month ago, and had a bit of a reminisce.

I've found a handheld, whilst housesitting at my old ladies, that I used to use as a kid. I wasn't able to find it anywhere in the museum.

It resembles the Texas Instruments Little Professor, except it is a Santa. I don't know who it is made by. I was going to take a photo of it but my digicam just carked it. I'm recharging the batteries, in the hope that they'll fire the camera back up.

The handheld is yellow, resembles a calculator, and has a santa face with one green and one red light for eyes. When you get something wrong the red eye lights up, and when you get something right, the green eye lights up.

Anyone ever heard of it?

It's probably a Santa version of this:

I seem to recall seeing this game with a different 'character' on the case... Might have even been Santa... Can't remember.

Hi Rik

Looks similar to that one. My camera looks like its 100% dead. I can't even turn the thing on, otherwise I'd take a shot for you.
