UK Pocketeers that did not appear as Tomy Pocket Games

Games which appeared as Japanese Pocketmates and which were released in the UK as Pocketeers but for which there is no evidence of a US Pocket Game version. It can't be a coincidence that these are the only 3 Pocketeers which open up to reveal games featuring small parts - my guess is that this was due to the danger of litigation if a child swallowed a piece. This same corporate fear may also explain why Crossbow and Blowpipe weren't available in Britain for very long...
