Ever see a Frogger cabinet like this one?

[ArlingTRON]

I came across this Frogger for sale on Marketplace. I'm far from an expert, but I've never seen one like it. KLOV doesn't have a picture of a similar cab, and an image search on Google didn't turn up anything either. Anyone see a cabinet and bezel like this on a Frogger before?

Different frogger cabinet

I did not find information. Can someone educate me?

This thread should answer your question. Even uses the same picture

It's a bootleg made by Omni/Glak

That bezel artwork is so cool.

By the way can anyone post a link to the marketplace ad? I'd like to copy those photos and add them to the media section here.

@OrangePeel has one I think

I had one, but I traded it at SFGE.
Mine had a matching marquee and Control Panel, the panel I actually picked up at the show last year, was a miraculous find. The panel that came on mine originally was a brass colored metal panel, the one pictured is acryllic. Nice to know there's another out there!

If anyone snags that game above, one of those control panels is currently on eBay with a hefty price tag.

Gah I didn't even see the Throw button. Weird!
Wonder what game that could be for then.

I found one of these for sale about 13 years ago on Craigslist and it turned out it was 5 houses down the effing block. Cabinet laminate was pretty rough and the seller wanted stupid money for it. $1,000! I offered $200, he didn't budge, and I didn't buy. Soooo much cooler than the Sega/Gremlin cabinet and artwork. Would love to find one in the condition @OrangePeel had.

Neat! The tire detail is nice!

 

[RetroInjection]

Better than the official cabinet, IMO.

So, would a game like this use a real Frogger PCB, or would they have made their own with ROM copies?

Glak/Omni were basically a bootlegging operation so it's highly likely that they were running a bootleg PCB in there.
