I have been trying to get a Qbert cabinet for awhile and they are very hard to come by around here. I picked up one Gottlieb cabinet but was told prior to getting it that it was not a Qbert. It is shaped like one but it is 67 inches from the bottom of the wood to the topmost part, just over 69 inches from the floor. Was told it is a 3 Stooges or Krull. It has the raised lettering Gottlieb coin door. It was redone numerous times as it has Atari, Capcom, etc. stickers all over it.
Another one came up that was thought to be a Qbert but it also appears to be too tall. Measurements need to be redone to see if it was from the ground or the bottom of the wood to be sure. It is a Gottlieb cabinet and shaped like a Qbert but was redone. Currently it has a gas pedal on the right bottom. The cabinet is painted all black. It has a steering wheel control panel.
I have Googled and found several dimensions for a Qbert cabinet. Do not know if they measured from the ground or the bottom of the wood. Measurements vary up to 2 inches or so so I'm not sure what the actual dimensions should be and how measured.
How can I tell if it is a Qbert cabinet? Can anyone provide good dimensions and note where / how they were taken. Also, what other cabinets, if any, besides 3 Stooges and Krull could be mistaken for a Qbert?
I know the others like 3 Stooges and Krull are supposed to be rare, but seems that is all I'm finding. Did they simply have extra height below the coin door or what are the differences between them and Qbert? The width and depth on the one I already have is identical to Qbert.
Thanks
