Of course, Sam and others have taken to talking
about the Mattel
Aquarius lately, but I've never seen a mention of the Radofin version,
which other than the lack of 'Mattel' logos and the change to the model
number and label on the bottom of the machine, is identical. Were many
of them sold? Does anyone else out there have one? About all I've been
able to learn is that since Radofin was the actual manufacturer of both
versions, they continued to produce it for an unknown length of time
after Mattel dropped it from their line. There's not even a mention of
it on any of the Aquarius references on the web.
Hello from a new list subscriber!
I picked up a Radofin Aquarius with the original box, manual, and
software last weekend. Other than the lack of the "Mattel Electronics"
logo, it seems to be identical to the Mattel version. The information
on the box is in four different languages - English, French, German, and
Spanish, IIRC. Is it possible that the Aquarius was sold under the
Radofin name outside the US?
