I have a local CNC shop that makes all my Lexan and they said they can make me a cabinet cnc cut. I have scoured the internet and don't see anything for this cabinet. If anyone has the plans I'd be grateful.
Thanks

I'm pretty sure these were both kit games, and never had a dedicated cabinet. I would put them in any Dynamo-style generic JAMMA cab.

I'm very interested how well your shop does. It would be awesome to get a local place to do cabinets.

Ghosts and Goblins for sure has a dedicated cabinet. I used to own one. Like a Data East cab they are based on a generic Dynamo cab, but the front side panels by the kickplate go straight down from the control panel rather than cutting back in. It's similar in comparing say a Moon Patrol cabinet to a Robotron cabinet.
 
Yep but they don't come up for sale very often so Is like to reproduce it and see how it goes, but I need plans

Didn't old Markrl reproduce these? Or did he just do one for himself? I know Fistgig mistakenly put his reproduction into a Dynamo cabinet like Ghouls and Ghosts, but he was wrong.
 
As Phetishboy says the profile is much the same as a Dynamo HS-1 and Data East cab.
You could tweak those plans easily. All you'd need to be sure, get a measurement of the length of the front panel.
There's an image on the internet (eg google image search) of a GnG next to a Forgotten Worlds which says as much.
 
I was under the impression that the lines of the cabinets were significantly different. It has been about 10 years since I sold mine.

Yeah, Ghosts in Goblins was a dedicated blue cab thats very different to an HS1. Ghouls looks at home in an HS1 (as it should because it's supposed too), but when you paint one blue with the Goblins art it just looks funny and out of place.

We just need someone with one to get us measurements.



Yes...

Yes it was dedicated, not the same, but not very different. [emoji6]

Dynamo basically tweaked the designs they had by a few cuts to make 'new' cabinet.

Here are the two cabs side by side:

So if someone can measure the front panel of the cabinet that's the missing dimension. (+ the coin door height)
 
I built a bunch of these. Too much work with all the blue vinyl. The first one I built was with templates and measurements from an original cab. I got it almost identical. Then I bought an original cab and built several from that which were perfect.
This cab has several different areas that differs from all other dynamo cabs:
Monitor/ cp wood that holds monitor is one piece
Monitor frame is made to fit hantarax monitor
Back door has recess for specific frame
Everything is dado joined
Its the most unique cab that can't be really copied unless you have one to deconstruct.
