I picked this up on sunday locally. Some of you know that i have been trying to get this thing for over a year . My boss gave in ... As for the history on this one , it came from an atari employee who actually helped develop the game . She had two of these in her garage at one time . My boss purchased this one over 20 years ago from her . Also it is a home use only machine and only shows 70 plays on the counter . Another really cool thing is that this one still has the 25" ampliphone in it and it plays flawlessy. The cab is in good shape and it even has all the original manuals , and also came with a spare new yoke as well . Anyways i'm done rambling. Heres a few pics for now ... oh yeah , also there is no serial numbers at all, and no kind of data plate . Theres not even any marks where it would have been . My boss got this from the original owner so i know it is not stolen ..lol

Great score for a good guy....
 
Awesome score! I'm very jealous...I'll eventually get one...someday...
 
I remember when you posted about this. Good job on getting it into your home. And yes, I am jealous. :D
 
Congrats on a great catch!

70 plays??!! That is about as close as getting one "out of the crate"!!

Are you going to bring this one to CAX so we can get our paws all over it (or get it violated like Jehuie's Tempest) or will you be inviting all of us locals over one by one so we can stare at it and drool from behind a velvet rope?

You most likely have a piece of history that is museum quality...

...again, AWESOME CATCH!
