Nice Job! I like the color scheme. Looks great!

When I saw the first picture of the side art elements fresh from the printer I thought to myself, oh man he is going to ruin a beautiful cabinet that he has put so much time into! And then I scrolled down, all I can say is amazing....You nailed it, that thing is beautiful.

hey thanks guys! a guy from our local newspaper came by and interviewed me about my hobby. i guess i need to post the artical that came out. he took pics of the Radar Scope and included them in the artical!

So is the radarscope cockpit just a regular upright with an attatchment bolted to the front?

[gorfchampion]

Dude you did a wonderful job on that game! I admire your patience and attention to detail. Everything looks just spectacular! Beautiful, just beautiful to look at....

no sir. the main cabinet on the radar scope is deeper with the extra wood for the sides. this extra wood is used to connect the players seating area. to join the two halves requires 8 metric bolts.

I posted on coinopspace...absolutely beautiful..one of the best restorations I've seen for such a rare piece with little reference...If I owned Nintendo you'd be hired as artwork and game design consultant...:D

[Brick Top]

That is quite the masterpiece. I have love for the Radarscope now!

I just wanted to say, great job! I am interested in your side art but am curious why you did it in three separate adhesive pieces. Why not make one composite image? Can you share the files? Is the ship the same as the art on the original cabinet?

I posted over on CoinopSpace but it deserves another, FANTASTIC JOB!!!

well for both of the sides of the cabinet, i paid over 130.00. with funds just about shot in my wallet, i decided to basically "cut and paste" the graphics to make one big image.

Awesome restoration! I congratulate you on bringing back such a rare cab, especially on how well you fixed it up. That must have taken forever to hand cut that spaceship, no?

[FlavaDave]

I had no idea a cockpit version existed! I heard that Radar Scope bombed in the arcades, hence the red DK's you see around, but that RS was done right!

[crowbarz]

Looks good. I was thinking of entering that contest too until i saw that mame cabs were allowed. Good luck and grats on saving a rare game.

[DP Louie]

That looks fantastic! You did an incredible job, the attention to detail is great. That is certainly a rare cab. How are the erognomics, it looks like it would be easier to play standing, rather than sitting. Again, you did a beautiful job!

[Segagee]

Looks really sweet, great execution on a great idea!
