Got a tip on one for $200. Worth it? About an hour drive to get it. From the pics I got, it looks in decent condition and is working.
 
I'd buy it, but thats just me. Some have said the game gets old, quick. I think my kids would LOVE it.
 
It is a game you'd want to buy if you already had like 5 or 6 others. $200 sounds fair. Expect that there will be minor lighting issues going on (targeting lights and upper lights). For that price though, everything else should work well and look good.
 
A working boardset could bring close to that. If it's fully working, that's a really nice buy. Expect to do some cosmetic work. There are a lot of parts, things that get dirty, grooved rubber mat at the base, etc..
 
Ok, you talked me into it.
I am picking up a Sega Daytona Usa 2 tomorrow and getting this while I'm out...

The Garage-cade will then contain...
Pacman (WIP...cracked neckboard from the move )

Super Pacman (WIP - 1 bad rom)

Afterburner

Just need a TMNT, MK2 and a Rampage (got the boards, marquees and other misc parts...but no cabs)
 
Interesting trade, I do have to warn you.. Baby Pac has a few gremlins (occasional reset circuit failure, occasional drop target failure). Vidiot and MPU seem to get along well though. Has a new CPO and I have new sideart I still need to apply.
 
lol my mk2 isnt perfect in terms of cosmetics, new monitor chassis and burn free tube with AMAZING colors, new cpo and such, but im dying for a baby pac.
 
Picked up the Afterburner...
All lighting works, minor damage to the sideart, rubber mat is in good shape, the control stick chrome is wearing right around where someone would grab it to play. Spent tonight drilling the coin door locks, 1 down 1 to go. Pics coming soon..
