Hi All,
About the galaga marquee.
I've seen 2 versions...
#1. Bally midway logos
#2. Small print Namco text (bottom right)
'
Which is the real version or are they both genuine?

Mine is on printed on glass and looks legit but only has the namco text.
see images to compare
I'm just not sure if mine is the correct version.

I believe they both are (not 100%). At first I thought the Namco version may be for a reunion cab, but Namco was the japanese publisher. Possible you have a Japanese marquee?

My Galaga says "midway", though it's a cabaret
 
FWIW, my understanding is the Namco only version was from the early 2000's. When they actually licensed one vendor to make them for restorations. I believe they were all done on plexi/acrylic.
