Hey Guys....
For Sale : Midway Space Invaders... This one isn't for everyone...a real collector quality machine
Restoration Thread: http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=157354
This thing took me a ton of time and ca$h to refurb... its probably the nicest SI out there. You all are going to laugh at this price but I'm going to say $1200.00 (+pp fees if applicable), sorry no trades. I'm not in any hurry and really will not be upset if it doesn't sell.
Lots of steps and TLC went into this... the monitor is PERFECT and wicked bright, control panel is perfect (TOG Overlay and new buttons)... It has the original glass bezel that is in near perfect shape. This machine simply twinkles... the TOG moon and new lamp with clean mirror and bright clean monitor (zero burn)... its stunning.
Coin door is powder coated with NOS coin chutes so there is no rust. It has a complete coin box with lid. I've since added some red led lamps to the coin inserts so it looks really nice lit up! You also get two spare white black light bulbs and a nice set of manuals. You will also get the original incandescent lamp board if you want to put it back to original. I prefer to use the cold cathode to preserve the bezel artwork, the incandescent bulbs are known for cooking the artwork and causing fading/flaking.
The game is probably in better shape than it would be new.
