Finally finished the Mad Planets 
Took a lot of work, well.. Mostly a lot of waiting (for parts) and replacing the control panel overlay was a complete nightmare. Probably the worst overlay removal ive ever encountered.
here is what I had to do:
* Bought the game in Florida, shipped to me by my oldschool friend Jason Cody.
* Recap the monitor
* Replaced the 4108 chips on the CPU.
* Rebuilt the Power Supply
* Touched up the cold solder on the filter board.
* Was Missing joystick, so I had to replace it. (thanks to ebay)
* Replaced Joystick Base/Housing (thanks to Warren Conard)
* Purchased the Gottlieb Logo piece. (thanks CMoore)
* Made new bezel
* Replaced the Overlay (Thanks to Mylstar)
* Replaced the Opto's on the Spinner
* Replaced the Spinner Board (next to the CPU)
* Replaced the Marquee (thanks to Mark Hooks)
* Replaced the Bulb & starter
* Had the Sound board rebuilt (thanks to Troy Akey).
* Had to remove some black spray off the sides.
