The Tower Camflash 127, sold by Sears, takes 4×4 cm images on 127 film, and bears a suspicious resemblance to the Comet 127 from Chicago manufacturer United States Camera. The side arrangement of the flash reflector gives the camera an interesting (if not especially practical) styling, enhanced by a choice of body colors. (While the flash reflector gives a superficial resemblance to Sears' Tower 39 and Tower 41 models, these were made by Mamiya.)

The Camflash II 127 is similar, although restyled with a more squared-off body shape.
