Sold! 10 characters

This is still for sale.

I added a couple more pics of the boards inside. They can be seen here: http://s1280.photobucket.com/user/the_corky/library/Bubbles

That's what it originally looked like, but when I put the cpu board in, the sound didn't work (hence the different board), the monitor needed a bunch of work, the controls were wonky, and the ribbon cables needed to be redone. The marquee was also out, so a new ballast was put in.

Replacement factory parts. There is no 3rd party/aftermarket hardware at all. The only 2 things that I can tell aren't original are the soundboard and the cpu board. All other numbers match.

Up for sale is my Duramold Bubbles. One of only 300 made, these don't pop up for sale too often. Been in my possession for about a year, everything has been gone over in that time to make sure the game is working tip top. All original except for cpu board and sound board, plays great with...

I just threw the Ebay thing out there since I really have no clue what this would sell for. I probably wouldn't go that route without trying to sell it first within the collector community here in the Pac NW since I'd rather not ship, and I definitely wouldn't list it on here in an MMAO thread...

I have a working Duramold Bubbles in pretty decent shape that I'm looking to get rid of. Most of the numbers match (cpu board is only one that doesn't) and the sound board is dead. Everything else original and working. Any idea what this would command? Is this one of those things that would...

I donated my centipede to a gaming expo a while ago, and when I got it back, the sound was out. I played around with some connections in the cab to no avail. The ar2 and game board are fine (tested them in a friends game) and the sound pot appears to check out. Any suggestions on where to go...

i have a hantarex (900 i believe) in a bubbles that is giving me a couple issues. the monitor will look great for a while, then it will start to flicker and display blue raster lines. it also looks like the saturation on the blue is increased, as most of the ants/grease will be washed out by...

nice video! i have a cameo at 1:21. also love the mullet bustout at 6:08.

ha, not really. been there, done that. i prefer cheap, working games. unfortunately i have no space so the buying is on hold for a while. thanks for the help everyone!

it lives! went over some cold solder joints and fixed the ribbon cables (some pins didn't have continuity). fires up and is (kind of) playable. this beast needs a monitor recap BAD. what i originally thought was funkiness due to the board is still there. vertical lines and a wavy pic. but...

i know the mpu/rom boards are different, but the rest of the hardware is the same, no? either way, i plugged my mpu/rom boards into my robotron and all i get is a blank purple screen. pretty sure the problem lies in the rom board.

i appreciate the offer ken, but now i am determined to make this mfer work. if im at the same point in a couple weeks, i may take you up on that. i am so smrt. i never put 2 and 2 together that i can throw the bubbles boards in my robotron to see if i get the same issue. that may help narrow...
