Looks kind of like my Space Stranger 2...
First, lemme say thanks though for taking the time to upload pics! Awsome!
I've never seen anyone else with my bezel before. The legs are also the same on yours too as are a few other pieces.
This wouldn't have "Yachiyo Electronics, Ltd." printed on it anywhere would it?
When you compare the two side by side, it's clear that these 2 came from the same company, were built in the same factory, or something like that.
Oh and I would bet money that this one was made in 1979.
And as for "value", these arn't fetching very good prices today... I have a feeling that they may be worth quite a bit more in the future though. Don't get me wrong, I love Space Invaders but my Space Stranger 2 is kind of like "mine". I know that is was just a cheap clone back in the day but you look around now and it's one of the only (maybe the only) working one left.
At any rate, it's clear that many of the parts on these are interchangeable. As for the board?... I'm posting a pic of some of my stuff to compare yours to. Oh, and I'm also getting an instruction manual for my SS2 in the mail in a few days that I plan on posting. Who knows, there maybe something useful in there some day.
