Grabs so far this year, would like to see other collectors as well.

Awesome pickup. Pac-Mania I think is the best game in the Pacman franchise. I definitely want to grab one at some point.
Pac-Man Championship Edition blows everything out the water from 1980 onward. I've often thought of building a cabinet dedicated to it running a PC or something.
 
Shoulda grabbed the Camaro while you were at it!
I picked all these up including a Missle command that we had moved before I remembered to take a picture. Crazy what can be not even 5 minutes down the road from you! Robocop works 100% and will be for sale. EftPoRM works but monitor needs cap kit and a joystick needs rebuild, missle command works but needs some board work, millipede beeps, no pcb in thunderbolt, Tetris and galaxian are both dead.

Dude had bought them for his friends/employees to play with (owned a limousine service) and never really got around to doing anything with them. The shop they were in didn't have power and was in the middle of being put in. The games weren't even posted for sale he had posted a camero for sale and I saw them in the background.
 
I have to enjoy your pickups vicariously since I'm locked down on new pickups.

Carry on!
 
Damn @Dillweed! You have the touch for the rare beasts, man. Never seen that in the wild, nor offered up for sale that I recall. Very cool!
 
Nice find. Locomotion has been on my short list because the one that I have was just thrown together with an empty Centuri cab, jamma harness/adapter, a PCB, a control panel, and a repro marquee. I've seen several others for sale over the past couple years, but was never able to act quick enough.... including this time ;) I'll get an original eventually.

My cab looks ok on its own, but when looking at an original with cardboard bezel and side art, then all of the sudden mine looks like crap.
It's all good, we'll get the bezel and side art vectorized and I'll send the files your way for reproducing :)
The game was only 45 minutes from my door, so it was a no brainer for me.
 
Acquired and fixed this LocoMotion. Gotta be honest, I've only played this one a few times in the past. Playing it now, it definitely has a addictive kind of bite to it. Pretty unique.

Locomotion was also one of two Centuri cabs quickly shown in the background in the movie Big. (Centuri's D-Day was the other) ..... (my final Centuri cab that I've been tirelessly looking for).

You can just make out the Locomotion marquee above the kids head who's playing D-Day.

Got this complete looking Donkey Kong cocktail. Second cocktail within a month. Nice and close - five minute drive!

Picked up my Pac-Man cabaret! This is the perfect conversion candidate for Jr. Pac and I'm excited to add it to my Pac collection… while I restore an upright Pac… and already have a Pac in the lineup… so three Pacs… One could say I have a "Three Pac"…

But this'll be Jr. Pac, my original Pac will stay in my Midway lineup, and the Pac I'm restoring is going to be a Pac-Man Plus attraction right at my front door where this is now.
