Vintage - Palitoy Pocketeers - Tomy Pocket Games - Part 1 - The 8 Great Pocketeers + More!
In this video we take our first detailed look at the amazing Palitoy Pocketeers, released in the USA as Tomy Pocket Games. We look at the first batch, referred to as the original 'Eight, Great Pocketeers' released in 1975, followed by the small batch of extra games that were released in 1976.
These fill me with nostalgia and I think they are truly wonderful and hark back to a time before videogames and even Star Wars toys!
Hope you enjoy it and look for Part 2 in about a months time.

16:28 MASSIVE fun. Sounds unlikely when you look, but IT WAS. I had it and can confirm the fun was indeed massive. Lord, were we so easily pleased?

@JulesBurt 2 года назад

We were very easily pleased back then! 👍🙂

Used to play rally on the schoolbus with my friend. Timed each other to complete a course.

@JulesBurt 2 года назад

One of the very best🙂👍

@dsummers1966 Год назад

Ah, memory lane! What a great video Jules, thank you. These were the must have toys in the mid 1970s. The clever ploy from Palitoy was that they were school blazer size. Remember buying Fruit Machine from Barnaby’s toy shop in Coventry. Thank you for a wonderful memory. Needless to say, my 14 year old son wasn’t that impressed and went off to play his PS5 😂😂

@JulesBurt Год назад

Lol, my son is the same. These will always hold a special place in my childhood memories 👍🙂

Never did see these when I was a boy but wish I had these game are interesting

They were great but certainly not sold in every toy shop👍

Me and my brother had a collection, some of which you showed, now I still have 2 which are the football game and a 1978 one which I think is obstacle course where you have one ball to find you way to the finish which is my favourite and I am glad I still have it!

@JulesBurt 6 месяцев назад

Fantastic, I still love these today🙂

@King_Of_Rapture Год назад

This was very fascinating to see. Really cool collection.

@JulesBurt Год назад

Excellent, thanks 👍

@robman80808 Год назад

Thank you so much for posting this! I think I must have played nearly all the ones in this video. . I think Rally was my favourite.

@JulesBurt Год назад

Rally is an absolute classic 🙂

@EdwardianTeaChest 3 года назад

Rally is probably the world's first open-world driving game! :)

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

Ha! I had never thought out it like that, yes, the Need For Speed of its day!🙂👍

@Taterniac Месяц назад

love this video. i had these as a kid. my brother had most since he was older. You brought back some happy memories i thought id forgot. Thank you

@JulesBurt Месяц назад

Great news, thanks 🙂

@CM-ll7ww 3 года назад

Completely forgotten I had the fruit machine one until I saw it here. Lovely jog of the memory. Simple and happy times :)

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

You said it! Fruit machine was a huge seller I think. One I definitely had as a kid. Happy times indeed 🙂

@Resolute900 14 дней назад

Hi. Thank you for sharing your collection with us. We can hear the passion and excitement as you display your treasures. Is there a cricket version of these? Once again, we appreciate you taking us on this journey.

@JulesBurt 14 дней назад

Thanks! Yes, there is a Cricket one, Big Hit. It's in one of the videos on Pocketeers.🙂

@CrueLoaf 2 года назад

I seem to recall a cricket game possibly in the range? There was a bowler and a batsman using a small ball bearing.

@JulesBurt 2 года назад

Yep, possibly in the next video or part three, those are live on the channel. Its called Howzat I think🙂👍

@toypolloi 3 года назад

Lovely to see so many of them together and all boxed. I have a couple now and they are fun to play.

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

Cheers Dave, these have always been a passion for me and they were so easy to find in the 90's! A bit harder now but they still show up. Hope you're well and that we can meet up at a toy fair soon🙂👍Been loving your recent videos.

@brendanduffy2367 3 года назад

Fantastic items 😎👍

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

Thanks Brendan, I certainly love them, perhaps not too many people collect them these days though🙂👍

@brendanduffy2367 3 года назад

@@JulesBurt they must be very difficult to track down in good condition however a really great thing to have 👍

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

I made a point of getting these in the mid 90's, they were around then in great shape. Still missing a couple in decent Palitoy packaging but I'm on the hunt!

@MatthewLikesToRead 3 года назад

When I was a kid the drug store in my town would have similar cheap little toys like this. When I was sick and home from school I'd get one of them. Not these particular ones but a cheapo toy game. The timer on Times Up reminds me of the timer for the table top game Perfection.

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

You're right Matthew, there were a few knock offs but the USA Tomy Pocket Games are what there are based on, they even have Tomy stamped on the base. I really love them!🙂👍

@neilloughran4437 8 месяцев назад

I recall that Rally game circa 1976/77... all the cool kids had em... I didn't :D. I suppose they were eclipsed a little bit a few years later by the burgeoning electronic games of the era like the Game and Watch type of things. I did have a few sets of Top Trumps however and they were cool...

@JulesBurt 8 месяцев назад

Absolutely, the early electronic games were the death Nell for these.

@neilloughran4437 8 месяцев назад

@@JulesBurt they were cool for the time... I guess even the Game and Watch kind of things are massively collectable these days... it's amazing where we are now with all the portable gaming platforms there are.

@JulesBurt 8 месяцев назад

@neilloughran4437 Indeed, the G and W have always been collectible but these were their precursors.

@martinrivett3760 3 года назад

They look great, seem to remember having one with a motorbike which had a clockwork (noisy sound). Think it must have been a pocketeer or something very similar.Will have to wait to see if it comes up in one of your future videos.

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

There was one that fits your description for sure, can't remember the exact name but it'll be covered in a future video 🙂👍

@sylvanyoung 3 года назад

Thank you.I dont remember having any of that 'brand name' , but i did have many alike...from the spring load ball bering games , the mazes, water filled games...and many more...some most likely being rip off and knock off of the posket games...An age befor..the electronics hand held..These things are now collectors

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

I reckon you had Tomy Pocket Games, that's what these were based on.

@chrisedwards1163 3 года назад

A very good video on a unique subject, I really enjoyed it. My memory kicked in with the poker, I remember something similiar to that in the states, but so long ago, lol.. Excellent vid as always Jules

@JulesBurt 3 года назад

Ha, thanks Chris! They definitely released that one in the States. New pick ups videos for Patrons tomorrow. Just editing the audio now🙂👍
