Does anyone know more about this joystick?

Hi all,

 

I've been trying for a long time to find a joystick that I had as a kid. It looked like a Quickshot, with a black plastic body, two red buttons, and a turbo fire switch, but with a round base and suction cups on the bottom. Not matter how much I looked I could never find a picture on one on-line. I started to wonder if I had owned a rare joystick as a kid. I wondered what this joystick could possibly have been. Until today. I was trying again to find it on-line and I stumbled on a forum post from a guy in Germany with pictures of joysticks that he was repairing:

I finally found a picture of one of the joysticks that I owned as a kid:

The one with a round base and suction cups on the bottom.

He says in the post:

"Antech, looks like a Atari clone with suckers on the base and a better stick."

 

Does anyone know more about this joystick? Is this really rare? Why is there only one picture of one on-line?
