Help me identify this space game...

LEDFreak

I bought this game ages ago...in about 1980 I believe. It was a blue game, about the same size and shape of many of Mattel's games. I got it from Sears in Canada. Blue shotting button on the side, and direction controls for left right movement.
It was sort of a space invaders type of deal with red LEDs. I can't seem to find this game anywhere and I don't know what it was called.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Very similar to Entex Space Invaders, but it was Sears and blue.

Did it look like this:

? Sears might have licensed that from Tomy... Doesn't have red LEDs tho...

How about http://www.handheldmuseum.com/Bandai/Missile.htm

This was made in 1980
Has red LED's
It's Blue
Same body as Mattel Armor Battle and Sub Chase
Shooting button on the side (not blue)

I'm not sure if it would have been sold in Sears.

I hope this is what you are looking for.

Neil.

Ooo, good find, forgot about that one... Sears did license some Bandai stuff, so it's quite possible...

Thanks, guys.
Yes it is the Bandai one...except it was sold by Sears Canada with their label on it. Definately the same one!
I know the Sears in the States has different stuff than the Sears in Canada so that is why you may not have known it was from our Sears.
