I do believe this is the only "proper" Burgertime mini... it's a DECO mini...

I don't know if it's exactly the same, but that cab Prairied1ll0 posted looks almost identical to a Galaga 3 cab D_Harris has.
 
Nah, that's just another Chinese bootleg cab. Very similar to the Artic (ATW) mini's like Sinbad, Mars, Devil Fish. Look at the lack of depth on the control panel. Bally/Midway has never released anything like that.

That would have been fun - loading a tape (program) everyday on a single cabinet (gotta' leave early to load the tapes on the machines before we open for the day - 3 minutes per machine). "Aaawwww crap! The tape broke from too much use!"

Technology has come along way.Thank the <insert deity/creature/thing here>.

I don't recall ever seeing any DECO system games and I started playing machines in about 1978 or so.

the cut down marquee should be clue #1 :)
 
yeah it's a bootleg burgertime, so I listed burgertime style game in the title.

I don't expect to get $300 for it, but you never know, lol.

it's not a dedicated cab I am pretty sure of that.
 
Sure looks like a conversion.

(But I'll add that, not long ago, a bunch of people "in the know" were convinced that a Donkey Kong mini cabinet was nothing more than an Atari cabaret conversion. Nintendo did indeed make a mini Donkey Kong - one is sitting next to me.)

100% conversion. Midway never made a Burgertime mini.

The following is the list of all Midway minis known to exist:

Legend:
* - Shows a dedicated cabinet I still need good pics of.
+ - Shows a dedicated cabinet newly made since year 2000.
# - Shows a dedicated cabinet Todd @ TNT still needs to
complete his collection of all mini/cabarets.
