D'you know what, I never even knew there was Neverending Story II released on Speccy. Amazingly I don't have it, and as such feel ashamed and rather a let down to you all. Regarding Mire Mare, my friendship with Tim of Stamperville never extended to the point that I think he felt I was a capable trustee of the fabled female horse in a bog based sequel.

Yes, dont worry, its quite a strange and obscure game, but it has something special for me since I used to read the preview in Microhobby and wondering many times how the game would be...difficult to spot, yes!
I managed to get a copy of Dalek Attack on ebay last week, but now desperately want a copy of Sly Spy.
And yes, you are quite right Guy, I dont know why but this is one of the hardest Ocean games to find...even the spanish version is almost impossible to spot...probably the game sold very few copies?
About Nigel Mansell, occasionally some are seen, but not very often...
I think it featured as a "rare" game in the RG speccy collector's issue a few months back. The reason is because I suppose it was released towards the end of the spectrum's life because I understand it's a pretty decent game.

Yeah, that might be a reason, but in 1990 there were still quite a lot Spectrum games, and from Ocean, for example, we had more than 30 more games released by the british company. Some of them easy to see like Chase HQ 2, Midnight Resistance, Rainbow Islands...so I think there must be other reason too, besides the year, which also is a valid point :)
NM's Championship racing, along with Alternative's Bully's Sporting Darts must be the final licensed games to be released on the speccy surely?
Indeed, for me, when I realized Gremlin released a spectrum game in late 1993, I was quite shocked...I didnt like the game a lot when I played it, but has this charm of being one of the last ones.
The Ocean cardboard box version. I photographed the above 3 and the double cassette release of International Match Day 128 for that Retro Gamer article a few issues ago regarding rare Spectrum games.
Got DEUS EX MACHINA on stock. Also Sly Spy is there, but Hit Squad release... I might have more, no time to list all...
Thanks Thomas!
I managed to get a copy of DEUS EX MACHINA, but still looking for Sly Spy, even if its from Hit Squad, since I know the game is very hard to find.
I will check your shop later then ;)

If anyone has spares of those, please let me know ;)
Thanks!
I've got a Dalek Attack aside in a trade (in theory)...
I have two copies of Sly Spy, but C64 sadly.
