Remember those CNC Space Invaders that Crazy Climber made for a bunch of us? Well, like Fritz at an alterboy convention, I finally got around to mounting them behind something. I hung them in columns of 3 behind my games, about 12 inches out from the back wall. I am planning on giving them a black backdrop and some fiber optics in the future, but for now, I just threw some red LED's above them:

Here they are with the flash:

I am surprised you don't own a Dragons Lair. I could really see one in your Arcade with a tv on top, now that would look cool as a pic next to the GORF

Really? Never been a fan of Dragon's Lair or Laser Games in general. I do have a Space Ace poster in my other arcade, but it was a gift. Actually, the final game for this room will be a Space Invaders Deluxe. Then I will be at capacity with 8 games.
 
Maybe its just the photos, but they seem hard to see with just the mood lighting on. Is it easier to see them in person? Those are super cool decorations, I'd love to get some, but my garage is unfinished so I'm not sure they would stand out enough to see them.

I think the pic with the "uplighting" illuminates them the best.
 
Yes just like Fritz at said alter boy convention, its starting to get seriously busy in there.

Like I said, the plan is to eventually get a black back drop, possibly with fiber optic stars in it. I will hang that behind the invaders, in front of what now looks like a busy wall/window.

Yeah, it's hard to capture a good pic of them with the flash and up-lighting turned off, but in real life, you can see them with just the projector light on as well.
