I emailed AL last night a pic of the Activision Commando green label version. It's not listed on the cart scans. I have the white one too, which is the one shown. Is the green label with the yellow letters a foreign version? Maybe HES? Any help will be appreciated.

It's listed on the label variations list, but I've never found one in NTSC format. I think it's a PAL only release.

Yes, your green label Commando is most definitely a PAL release. There's one just as you described up for auction right now on eBay:

HES release of Commando

Cool, thanks for the info. Maybe I'm touched, but I can't find the label list on here. I am new, but since there is so much info, I come across the scanned labels and only see the Salu and Standard versions. Where is the list? Thanks in advance.

You must change the Region to [ALL], then you find it. Because this variant is not release in North America. Only in Australia.

Ok, tried to do what you said. I put ALL for region, typed Commando and it's still not coming up more than the 2 that are listed. Then I actually put company:HES with ALL as the region and it says no entry found. What next? I've never had this much trouble doing something on the computer before.

Sorry, my fault. This HES version is not listed here. But the list is not complete. They miss many games.

Yeah, we just started adding all the foreign games a few months ago and are slowly adding new titles as we get scans. I'm in California right now and won't be back for a week, so I probably won't be able to add the HES Commando until I get back. But the scan looks great, Phil, thanks for sending it! We are only adding games for which we can see scans of the box and/or cart. Or that we physically have in our possession. It's our goal to put together a very accurate list of foreign titles. At some point we'll make a strong push to get as much of this section filled out as possible.
