UPDATE 5/2/2020

We have received this information from an interested member of the public for which we are very grateful.

For your information:- 
The game you have listed does pre-date the blue boxes - this was one of a few prototypes made before Mattel agreed to produce it. I have one of them. I worked with the owner Mr M Lorrigan. These prototypes were produced by adults with disabilities that found getting employment difficult. They were paid for their work on this project. We were asked to review the prototypes for him. I couldn't believe it when I saw a Mattel produced one for sale locally and asked the seller for the information on the box. I didn't realise he got them produced. I can't remember exactly how many prototypes were made, I have a figure of 20 in my head, and I think they were numbered. They were made in 1986.

Approximate dimensions:  60cm (box length), 38cm (box width).

Approximate weight: 4000g.

Price £50.
