Anyone ever see something like this?

I was at a guys house and he has this. It works and plays 8-tracks. I could not find any name on it.

Nothing? Nobody?

It's neat, never seen something like that. More of an amusement (plays music, cars go round) sort of kid entertainment?

I've worked at an arcade that had all sorts of weird gum machines and stuff. I've never seen ANYTHING like that before, in all my 54 years of travels.

It looks odd.

It's made by Alca Electronics, a UK company, but I can't find any info on that particular machine.

Yeah that's all I found too. Thing is crazy. Has little Beatles (the band) figures in there.

Alca stopped producing stuff around 1985. Cool item, never seen one!

Looks like it has characters from The Magic Roundabout in there.

Ok, time for a thread revival of 9+ years. I recently picked up one of these. I am missing the 8 track tape, but besides that, game is complete and works fine. Only information I have found online about it is this:

Magic Roundabout by Alca Electronics Ltd.

Let me know if anyone might be interested in this. Its time to move this on and free up some room. Mine is missing the 8 track tape for sound, but everything else is there and works fine.

I had the perfect 8 track for this about 40 years ago, it had Dreamboat Annie plus Black Dog. It was the only rock 8 track we had, so it got some serious play.
