here is what a HOME USE ONLY SINCE NEW asteroids deluxe looks like

added this to the collection not too long ago. never in an arcade, home use only from day 1.
low meter plays as well. transformer assembly and inside cab are flawless.

i usualy dont post what i have or brag :)..., but i thought some of you may enjoy this one..

looks pretty much brand new still. i took a video too, if interested, i can email the vid.

i put the manual in coin box..it still had the original metal lid as clean as day too, i pulled it out thow. i always fear a lid will fall backward on the transformer assembly.
 
Nice!!!
Hey, I have a coin box like that. I wondered what game it went to. Now I know!
 
Very nice!

I can post pictures of a AD that has been in a barn for the past 20 years with the back door off :D

that my friend is a work of art, forget picasso. i have 2 of these, 1 is a 7 and one a 9.5. i really love the black light effect on this game. i like to see these garage queens exist.
was it set on freeplay?
 
wowza thats awesome and makes mine look like it was rode hard and put away wet.


What did ya pay? I normally don't care but for something this perfect I'm curious
 
How much? I'm wanting to make an Arkanoid, and that'd be a good start. ;)



That is a stunning machine!
 
i paid within a deal of non coin op items, in the 4 digit range in the end. well worth it.
actually it was not on free play, kinda funny. the owner liked it coin op style i guess..
althow, it looks as if no coins dropped into the coin bucket or coin slots.
most credit ups done with finger triggering switch i guess (or actually pressing down the plastic actuator that sits atop the switch cover).
no trace, no evidence..
its a rare opportunity to find a 32 year old game that has never been on location outside of a home all its life. it was only in one home i was told as well, the actual home i picked it up from. smoke free, pet free...very very clean. he had 2 games. the other i passed onto a friend. it was a huo stern vid.
 
Congrats on the HUO deluxe, it is a beauty! I want to fine one myself someday.

I also got a HUO Gravitar recently, though I had to sacrifice my new trailer on the trip back. Bad news, trailer is totaled, good news is the game didn't get hurt in the roll over.

Enjoy the game!
 
Of course. One would expect that kind of fading over 30 years. It really does certify its authenticity. I wouldn't change it, for sure.

Amazing how much that CP has faded.... But I wouldn't touch it either. An original unmolested cab in that kind of shape deserves to stay that way.
 
it has not faded at all. my flash may make it appear that way. also overhead lights in shop dont help as they are glare monsters!

zero fade anywhere. i have 2 other deluxes and those standing side by side you can see the differences.
the HUO cp is bright.
the home this was at, game was on the main floor, no windows near it.
big house..machine kept cozy and snug.
 
i just viewed those pix and remember now.
i had to turn flash off for the front pix cuz flash kept reflecting off of bezel. thats why the black is dark blended on the front of cabinet as well with the coin door and formica.
trust me, its not faded..
i took a video, if anyone wants to see it i can email, you will see the amazing condition in and out. i really dont want to post it online.
