(The next 2.....)

Thanks! Kinda hanging out - I know its not "legit" collecting, but in my own way, I'm still in the "game"!!

Yes Scott, there is a purple led strip behind the 3d printed grille. I always thought there should be something more there. Got another one done since then...and 3 more in progress..

Well, I figured id close my posting out with a few more. Worked hard on these and wanted to share. YES all the controls are correct (leaf switches - 49way, weighted spinner for correct feel), and again - alot of 3d printed components - including the cupholders. I figured id show how im...

Hey guys! Long time no see!! Its been FOREVER since I posted here as I totally got out of the dedicated Arcade game collecting about 8 or so years ago. At that point I had amassed about 40 games and a ton of room for spare parts - as most of you can relate. As time (and life) went on, I found...

.....annnndd.... SOLD!!! Its been fun guys - onto another hobby!!

Thanks - No actually it didnt go to Pete - was out of state sale. There will be no extras - and I mean nothing! Hes getting EVERYTHING I had as far as monitors (6 rgb &1 vector) Control panels, Joysticks, wiring, boards, etc... When I say Im getting out - I mean it! LOL!

Well at this point it looks pretty solid that this is a done deal (99.9%) - so more than likely I wont be splitting it up. :rolleyes:

Sale pending....

Im sure not much more than just shipping 1.
