HEY Guys, Question of the day? (I know you guys look forward to these questions!) Anyway my topic question today is: Did the Time out Toss up handheld game released by mego corp. come in different [glow=red,2,300]COLORS?[/glow] I am refering to the color of the buttons. Everyone who sells the game always has the red button colors. Except I am the only one who has yellow buttons. Since this game is more common than the Game & Watch game ball, obviously collectors buy this game first. So what color is your buttons? -Matt

Matt I would have a guess that the buttons used to be red and have faded in the sun. Do you have a picture of the game?

HI
I am in the process of listing pictures on my website, but it is to time consuming.(Pictures are not up yet). I don't think the sun changed the color, because the buttons are solid yellow.
I will provide you guys with a picture, but how do I insert in here?

There's also a Flagman currently being auctioned on ebay with yellow buttons.

Those buttons on that Flagman deffinitely look sun faded to me. The best thing is to ask the seller if the LCD sprites are strong and dark, if they are light and hard to see then it's evidence of sun damage.
I've only ever known some Silver games to have yellow(ish) Time, Game A & Game B Buttons. If the left/right buttons are not an obvious faded red then it's probably been tampered with, using buttoms from another handheld (not necessary from another Game & Watch).

That would be my guess too.

I think maybe people were put off by the amount of scratches on it plus the buttons too.
Who knows, maybe I would have been interested if I didn't already have Flagman!

I really hate it when I forget about something that I wanted and then find out it sold for less than I'd have paid.
