I have a loose Tandy Space Shot without a battery cover and wanted a complete model. So I purchased another one on Ebay, boxed, with battery cover and instructions. However, the boxed version has different graphics than the loose one I had. The graphics of the boxed version seems to be like a submarine torpedoing a ship - not space related at all (no UFO). The instructions are more related to the loose version I had, which has a space ship and a UFO. The appearance of both are completely identical, except that the loose version is embossed with 'MADE IN TAIWAN', has a sticker 8A2 and the back instructions mention 'Hitting at battle-cruiser scores 1 point, 5 points for UFO'. You also have a total of 50 rockets. The boxed version has 'MADE IN JAPAN' embossed, stamped 7A1 and the back instructions mention 'Hitting a slower battle-cruiser scores 3 points, 5 points for faster cruiser'. There is only a total of 30 rockets for this version. Can people please let me know what versions they have or are aware of these differences.

There's a difference in the US version and the Canadian one. I don't remember all of them, but I remember I thought them significant. They definitely have different graphics.
