German Amiga WC1 Gets Its Sell Sheet Share on Facebook Share on Twitter Update ID

Thanks to Kultpower, we've come across another variation of the popular "What you SEE is what you PLAY!" sell sheet for the original Wing Commander. The ad dates back all the way to pre-release times when the game was still known as Wing Leader. We've seen it pop up for Amiga ports as well as other European translations. This one is for the German Amiga release. It's a great ad, and it certainly got a ton of use back in the day!

Other iterations exist, including variants in different languages. Although this minor wording tweak may not seem super exciting, from a collector's point of view, it's fascinating to see just how many versions exist!
Here's a few other versions:
