So, I currently have a TMNT2 at home. I was looking this thing over, and the sideart is HORRIBLE. Whoever put it on (3 pieces each side), was obviously on drugs because there isn't a single seam that lines up. Bubbles, scratches, it's just flat out bad all around. Then I started looking at the mismatched seems a little closer.. there is something else under the side art...
Well, the side art looks like crap, and the CP is in pretty rough shape. Finally, I get the balls to tear a bit of the sideart back. I really wanted to see what was under there. It was originally a TMNT!
So, now I have to decide. Either way, the TMNT2 sideart HAS to come off. I suspect the TMNT sideart is in better condition, and it looks like it was never really "prepped" for the TMNT2 art, so I might be able to salvage it.
I'm looking for some input.
1. Should I revert this back to a TMNT? Would require a new marquee, board, CPO and Side Art if I did. (expensive option)
2. Keep the TMNT2, bury it in my arcade so you don't see the sideart or have TMNT sideart on a TMNT2... (Cheap option)
3. Keep it TMNT2, but redo all of the sideart and CPO with repros from Arcadeoverlays.com? (middle price option)
Curious to see what some of the rest of you would do in this situation....
