Yes, but now I'm wondering if there's a "West Germany" variation of the German one as well. Lol. 
My UK ones are all printed in West Germany, and the two versions of the Italian one I have are printed in Italy. 

It's never ending. 😝

Now i have to dig the rest out and see which ones i have.. Thanks!

I have 2 UK versions but i dont have an Italian one yet. It stands to reason there would be a west Germany version of the German variant.. but ive never seen one.

I have a few German ones, but they are all without the source country.

I found them quicker than expected.  Below are ones from West Germany, England, France, and Italy.

These kinds of items really get into ephemera that I'm less interested in collecting, but I REALLY like the artwork on the front of those catalogs.  Should be on a t-shirt or something.  Pixelated, but not quite 100% accurate to the actual sprites in the games.  It has a cool hand-made pixely feel to it.

Thanks for sharing Lathe I believe I only have one not sure which. Any major differences on interior as to number of games shown or different artwork?

There are some minor differences. The German catalog doesn’t feature B17 Bomber. And of course every catalog is in a different language.

Oooh... i really like that Italian one!

There's actually at least two. The red topped one and then one with the black bar across the top like the others. Plus there's also an Italian version of the blue catalog that used to come with the games.

I dont have any of the Italian versions yet.

Maybe there should be a new pinned thread for Catalog Variants? .. instead of in the Ebay Roundup.. lol

Interesting that the German version has "BOMB SQUAD" instead of the UK version's "B-17 BOMBER"... but still retains the B-17 BOMBER game screen picture.

-Ooops!

V A R I A N T alert...

 

my copies of the German catalog are showing the Bomb Squad screen!

IntyMike thanks for info: pretty ironic German one not featuring B-17 Bomber pretty neat imo. And of course the languages like you mentioned.

 

I would rather say that this is the most un-ironic thing. 

Mattel decided back then that a game where the buyers get bombed should not be on sale in the country.

That changed of course later and I had much fun with Medal Of Honor on the PS1.

Yah I've always planned that but that's a lot of pictures. Might have to break it down a bit.
