Ever since playing it on my multi Williams I have been searching for one. Its been almost a year later and I finally worked out a deal for this one. Well worth the 10 hour drive to grab it. It has the prototype 30 wave board installed. The outerpace wave is cool which is not on the 20 wave game. I should have the repro CPO by the end of Jan. I know the original stick is nearly impossible to find but maybe someday I will come across one. I love this game, the cab looks cool, plays awesome and sounds great with two speakers.

10-hours! Dude. That's dedication. Respect.

I love my bubbles (blue) duramold, but I have to confess that there's something real bad-ass about the black blaster... Enjoy!
 
I am NOT asking what the OP paid, as I think it's nunya, but.. what do these 'typically' sell for these days?

Very cool and congrats.. I saw a duramold cabinet once and was really impressed by the design of it.

I'm not so proud. It's not like we're talking income tax here. ;-)

I don't think there is a "typical" price for these, as I quite literally got mine for free as a dumpster rescue, whereas I've heard of some paying ridiculous amounts for them, so your mileage may vary. That said, I would be curious what kind of deal you pulled off after a 10-hr drive as well!

I ended up paying $650 after all was said and done. To me it was a deal as I love the game. If anyone ever comes across an original stick please let me know.
Thanks,
John

Thanks Chris. 10 hour round trip and not bad at all. The stick will be tough but the CPO is in process.
 
Nice grab and I like the price. This is one of those that it is worth the drive to get, don't see many.
 
Updated Pic

Here's an updated pic with the original marquee, repro CPO and original stick now installed. Blaster is an awesome game and the stick makes a huge difference.
