Later Telesys Cartridges in Apollo Shells?

[Psionic]

There's a longstanding rumor (mentioned in the old Digital Press Guide among other places) that some of the later square Telesys cartridges can be found with an Apollo logo on them.  I have never personally seen this that I can remember, but it's not out of the question given that the shells probably came from the same supplier.  Does anyone own one of these?

AFAIK these Telesys carts had a blank space where the Apollo carts carry the Apollo logo.


Never seen a Telesys one with the Apollo logo on the back.

 

Same goes for Wizard carts, btw.

Correct.  In addition to the lack of a logo, the generic shells used by Telesys, Panda, and Wizard also lack the two screws that Apollo cartridges have under the label.  I seem to have a vague recollection of someone posting a pic on the DP forums many years ago of a Telesys game inside an Apollo shell but I really don't know.
