I can't think of a game that has this.. My only guess would be predators. Any ideas? Looks like it would be for a vertical game. don't get caught up in the controls. Its a coverted williams bubbles cabinet.

It looks to me like it would be a 19" smash tv. Just a first thought type of thing.
 
not smash tv 19". I think the 19" monitor glass is cool. Hopefully someone expands it for 25". Here is a pic.

that person would be my new best friend, can't help you with id'ing that glass but it looks cool and i'm excited to see/hear what it was from.
 
It might be one of the conversion kits they sold briefly, Aeroboto. I haven't found any pictures of the artwork that went with that one, except the marquee.

What a coincidence! I was just at another local collectors house yesterday and saw that exact artwork. The stripes were on the front of a Defender cab that had been converted to Smash TV. They were in the same vertical orientation, on both sides of the coin door panel. There was also a square piece of art with the Williams logo on the recessed panel below the coin door.
 
It could also be the missing bezel artwork for the Williams 1942. Andy was redoing the CPO from bits and pieces found scattered around, but I don't remember if he ever found the bezel artwork.

Edit: Scrap that idea. I found the 1942 threads and it looks like the 1942 bezel looked like a Geiger alien ripoff.

Yellowdog got it, looks like Aeroboto. The control panel art matches your bezel.

Looks like this has already been solved, but for the last nail a picture of an aerobot. (sorry cell phone pic out of a magazine)

If it is a Bubbles cab, I would be interested in swapping a Bubbles bezel for that one or just buying it. I am looking at building an Aeroboto and the bezel would be a very cool addition. I already have the board and a marquee. I'll probably be sacrificing a Moon Patrol cabinet (same size as a Bubbles) to create the Aeroboto.

thanks for finding the answer guys.. The cab looks more like robotron or bubbles than it does moon patrol...
