Ignorama Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 (edited) Do anybody of you know something about an french version of Ice Trek? I know the US Version and the International Version, which included also french language, but my Ice Trek seems so be a bit different. Its this one: http://ogdb.eu/index...me&gameid=60247 You can see that it is exactly like the US Version, but in addition there is a black and white printed manual (its made very cheap, just copied the normal manual on unglossy paper and stapled the pages together) and a guarantee card, which seems to be printed by Mattel Electronics Division de Mattel France. My assumption is, that there were unsold US stocks, which were shipped to Europe and transformed to localized versions as cheap as possible, is that right? And are these versions more rare than normal US-releases? I mean, would you even count it as "French Version", or just as a normal US Version?

Intymike Posted March 14, 2013 Share Posted March 14, 2013 I assume that they had not enough stock of the international version. So they put a cheap b/w instructions (taken from the international manual) and put it into a US box. I´ve seen something similar with a US Dragonfire box and german b/w instructions.
