Group id #2016 : The Metro Boys

The entry says "Dissolved in : August 1987" though all cracks listed are from 1988.

My theory is that there were actually two "The Metro Boys" - one with Snoopy and Tommy, which was German based. They might have been operating until 1987. Then in 1988, another "The Metro Boys" appeared, which was based in Turkey, featuring The Mafia Guys (Mr.Best & co).

Anyone opposing to this, or should I go ahead and split it into two groups?

OK, I think we have enough evidence to split this... See scroller in Deluxe Demo

The Metroboys was founded by merging 2 or 3 independent Turkish group. One of them was Foreshadow Cracking Team which was founded in 86-87, I guess.

I have some information and stuffs provided from Crockett(he was one of FCT and TMB founders ) . He sent me a d64 collection(333 disk image) in 2010.
I think it includes most of all FCT and TMB stuffs and much more:)

But i need time to arrange those stuffs because there are so many unreleased work on them.
