Picked up some new games...

AD works fine
DD works fine
MP needed a PCB and a monitor (I have several of each so that didn't present a problem)

I need a monitor mount for MP but I have hooked one in to test and she works great.
I also need to strip off the chrome t-molding... makes her look like a hooker.

Were these at one of the last few auctions? Did you get them from the chick that buys everything up? I tried to get that (or a similar) Dig Dug mini but she outbid me. How you been? Coming to my next party?
 
Wow, you did have a good weekend.

I would love to find some cabarets. They never seem to turn up around my neck of the woods.

That Dig Dug is sweet.
 
Wow, you did have a good weekend! Gotta love them midgets.
 
nice looking cabarets. I like the DD. I actually put a light behind the marquee like piece below the CP my Centipede mini, which looks the same as that one. Not sure why they did not do that originally- it looks like it was almost meant to be illuminated from the back.

None of these came from auctions. Just sniffed them out around the cities.
Yeah... I am down with the party this time for sure. Still got my eyes peeled for a DK cabaret for you (still want one, right?).

Oh my God yes. If you find one, let me be the first to know.

Hmmmm... I didn't notice that it didn't light up. I need to do that. Thanks for pointing that out.
 
Looks like mini-palooza. The more I see pics of the cabarets...the more I want one...but I must resist.

HA... "mini-palooza", I like that. Sounds like a sign I should make for the arcade.
I have several others too... Tempest, Centipede, Taito SI (sold a BZ and Qix).
 
Gotta love the minis and cabarets. How many does that make for you now?

I am still hunting for a Missile Command cabaret... Anyone???

yeah, except for the "free play" button some yahoo drilled into the top left of the control panel. Not sure what to do about that but I guess removing it and patching the hole it'll leave behind in the cpo is my only option.

I think 7 or 8... I can't remember because I live in a 2 bedroom apartment and my 'stuff' is scattered a bit. I have let a few go (BZ and Qix) and I am forgetful so I sometimes "rediscover" things. Like while I was replying to your post, I remembered I have a non-descript "generic" mini (gonna be a xx-in-1 some day) and a Mr Do conversion mini in one storage place and a Centipede mini converted into an Arkanoid (I didn't convert it but it was done well and I intend to leave it an Arkanoid).
 
Maybe when I get my full size & Red Baron restored. I still can't believe that cabaret fit in the backseat of the truck. Do you still have a picture?

Wow Mort. I didn't see your last post. Yes, I have the pictures... somewhere. I'll add them when I run across them again.

First off, nice score! Second, I'm pretty sure it was meant to be back-lit, but I don't think any Dig Dug minis left the factory with a light. I'm guessing that was for economic reasons. I haven't added one to mine yet, but I hear it's super-easy to do. Wiz, how did you do yours?

Actually, for anyone else who's retrofitted a light into one of these, post pictures of your setup if you have `em...
