I'm happy to get back that Attack In Space by Tomy.
I had that one in the 80s, but it was broken very quickly (He did not resist the playground...).

Anyway, got this working one

Slim model

Fully mechanical... no battery! Already very ecological

Invaders look like the Galaxian bees...

Easy to play... only ONE button : FIRE!

Made by Tomy , in the collection 'Pocket Arcade' (two other games are in that collection).

Game originally released in 1982... yes, very long time ago ... I was 9 years old $:-\$

Now have a look at this video to see how this game look like

I've never heard of these games, but this one is awesome.

Love that fully mechanical style, works like an old watch.

Thanks for sharing.

I have a Blip/Blip-O-Mat, also by Tomy, which is kind of an EM Handheld Pong, quite funny:

Just ran into a variation on MP. It's called Turtles. I think the game play is totally identical, except graphically of course. Hope to receive it tomorrow/saturday. Was not on the wishlist, but It happened when shopping a Pengo...
I almost consider my collection complete now... (ahum... never say so) unless I find a decent Tomy mr. Do/Go sometimes for less than average (50€ instead of 150$). At least all the icons have been aquired.
