Game Boy Prototypes of Syd the Elephant + Edd the Duck.
Has anyone come across or have any knowledge on prototypes/games called Syd the Elephant and Edd the Duck. These games were to be regional variations of Agro Soar, Baby T-Rex, Bamse and We're Back a Dinosaur's Story. These may have only been reviewable carts sent to gaming magazines but would be interested to find out info from more knowledgeable collectors.
Thank you.
Thank you.

As to quote the comment:
"Just found this thread, probably nobody interested now, but just to set the record straight. I'm not sure who anonymous is that claims they helped program these, maybe tools or something, as I was the coder that did all these at Beam. Baby T-Rex wasn't thrown together in about a week as that was the original game made based on a character thought up by Alfred Milgroms' son and developed simultaneously on multiple formats. I remember listening to that same title theme from Marshall Parker for months on end, it's still ingrained in my memory. After an agreement with Jamie Dunn we then changed the character to Agro for release in Australia, with We're Back and Bamse to follow, and definitely Edd The Duck. It was approved by Nintendo ready for sale, and I'm pretty certain it went out to sale. I still have the source code and roms for all those games somewhere in my archive. FYI it was later altered for Taz-mania, though that was more than just the main sprites, but still most of the Baby T-Rex base was there."
And since it's actually reviewed, there should be proto's in existence.. somewhere..
