If anyone has one, could you please take some pics as to how the monitor is mounted. I have an old monitor pull from a Galaxian and a midway cab to put it in... Just need to see how the monitor is mounted since it has its own HUGE monitor board that needs to go somewhere.
Any pic's will help bigtime!

I'm quite certain it came with a 19" monitor.

well now we know where they got the idea for shoehorning a 25" in those anniversary cabs. lol

very interesting finding.

I have that very machine in the thread that I bought from Jason. It was a project I thought about trying, but realize, I probably will never get to it. It is for sale if your up for the trip!!
 
yeah, try taking one out too. we literally had to unbolt the tube from the frame to get it back in there. the Pac-Man that I had to pop a K7200 with no juice/sync out of.... not anywhere near as difficult. lol

I can't imagine wtf a Galaxian would look like with one of those. I agree, vertical games with 25" monitors just look stupid. they look like they're 4 feet tall. I hate vertical games to begin with. I would say DK and the Pac/Galaga games are the only exceptions to my rule heh.

Hey masco, can you get some pics of how that thing is mounted? the monitor I have has a big wood bracket around it but I can see how it would bolt in there. i can see from the other pics that the huge ass chassis mounts to the side of the cab, but not sure whats needed to put that monitor in there firmly. I agree that its odd having a 25" in a galaxian, but I'm actually building a make-shift reunion cab and this thing has been sitting in my garage for over a year, so I'd like to put it in there.

EDIT: Never mind, I just found the other pictures you have up there in the old thread and I see that there are metal square brackets holding it up. classy!
