The housing was metal, but the rocker action wobbly in a way that made me think it could break under pressure.
Did the job though! Think I paid £20 for it

I recently repaired a Frontline Stereo Chorus like this
which had been run on the wrong power supply, and it was not only a very nice-sounding chorus, to my surprise it had much better reverse-voltage and over-voltage protection than a Boss (a series diode and a Zener, rather than just a crude parallel diode), which had saved it from being more seriously damaged - the BBD chip would probably have been destroyed, if it hadn't been.

My nostalgic head tells me it was fantastic, sadly I have tapes of a 17 year old me making noises like a jar of angry wasps being shaken vigorously...
I’ve always wanted one of those mystery pedals so now I know what it was, thanks!

But it worked very well, and inspired several songs. I've tried reproducing what I remember of the sound on supposedly better modern pedals and I can't really get the same sounds, even on a DIG which is meant to model some of that 80s digital delay.

Mind you, I still have several of my old 80's pedals on my board, doing the thing they do well. Sadly, my Frontline Heavy Metal pedal doesn't make the team these days.
I'm not saying an 80s distortion pedal is a likely candidate though . But a chorus or flanger that's a bit different from the usual Boss/Ibanez etc might be.
