The Magnavox Odyssey² (known as the Philips Videopac G7000 in Europe) game Attack of the Timelord! (unrelated to Doctor Who) was released in Europe as Gerry Anderson's Terrahawks, based on the British sci-fi puppet series Terrahawks.

For comparison, here's Attack of the Timelord!


And here's Terrahawks.


As you can see, apart from from an added background in Terrahawks, both games are identical.

There was apparently another Terrahawks game in development for the same system (Philips Videopac G7000) but was later canceled, called Terrahawks: Second Assault. It's thought that this version was canceled because Philips considered it to be bad, and instead turned Attack of the Timelord! into Terrahawks for the European market. The ROMs for the game have since been released online.

If you are unfamiliar with Terrahawks, it was an 80s British sci-fi series co-created by Gerry Anderson, the creator of Thunderbirds.

Now there's a TV series I totally forgot about... Holy crap.
