Donkey Kong, Donkey Kong Jr. & Popeye Cocktail Art Package Upgrade

It has taken a lot of work to get to this point, but I can finally post all three Nintendo cocktail art packages in one place. Thank you everyone who gave me encouragement & feedback along the way! Also a big thank you to those who have already bought the art packages and shared their pictures with everyone.

Ever since I acquired my first Nintendo cocktail several years ago, I always thought that these should look more like their more colorful upright big brothers. This thought lead me to creating the art packages you see below.

The art is printed on 3M Vinyl that has air release, so bubbles are not an issue. It will also have a UV laminate to help protect the art. The idea is to place the control panel overlay right over the current aluminum control panel plates. The underlay will be the same, but have a matte finish so it doesn't look wet under the glass. The matte finish does not make it look dull at all...quite the opposite (I actually kept the backing on my underlay and just placed it under the glass).

The underlay will not be cut to fit, because I have noticed there are slight variances from table to table. I also made sure there was extra material around the entire piece to account for the variances. This can easily be placed and trimmed to fit perfectly to your cocktail. The control panel overlays have proven to be uniform, but I will still leave a little extra material so you can move it in all directions until it aligns perfectly.

Art packages are $120 shipped in the CONUS. Please PM for PayPal information.

I got a set of the Jr. art and received it last week.

STUFF LOOKS AWESOME. Very high quality.

Big advantage of this is if you have a Jr and your glass is scratched (and they all are), you're kind of hosed because Jr. had a lot of trim stuff screened on the back of the glass. So while you can go to a local glass shop and get a new glass, getting that trim done somehow is a big problem. So most people "just live with" a scratched up glass.

I had originally planned to come up with a product to *just* add the trim back to a new glass when I got my cabinet. But then I saw this and now I don't care. :)

I'll post a pic when I get it installed, but that's going to be a while, sadly. Too much summer travel and other projects. Fall at worst, but maybe sooner. We'll see...
