I'm doing a restore for an original Midway Pacman cocktail that the glass was missing.
Was going to sell this so I'm looking for an easy underlay to put under a piece of glass.
It's a Pacman cocktail and not a Ms. Pacman so I know that the shape is different from the Ms. Pacman.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
 
Same here! All I can find are underlays for Ms pac-man cocktails, nothing for the good ol' original pac-man format.
 
Agreed, a great option, and probably the only way to go for a purist; though it is hard to spend $305 on the glass alone…
But out of curiosity, has anyone found a good high-res file, and seen if a local print shop could do a decent underlay?
 
ArcadeShop used to have a pretty good, cheap paper underlay for Pac-Man. I think they were out of stock when I got mine, but when I emailed them directly about it, it turned out they had just a few left over. Might be worth a shot.

Vectorized file is already on ArcadeArtwork

@Shawn1976 let me know if you run into issues finding something I can probably help out and print you one on some thin cardstock
 
I saw that vectorized file, unfortunately it is the wrong shape, it's a Ms Pac and does not fit Pac-Man. I guess it could be printed on a black 22x32 sheet and cut following the actual contour, but be careful not to print it as is, it just won't fit.

Yep, I believe I have the proper contour layout to fill in the back and create the proper svg, would be pretty easy to do.
 
I bought one off ebay a few years ago the pas printed on thin plastic. It looked ok but it made the scratches kind of stick out

Would be the reference of layout.
Most of the measurements are good except for the 14 3/4". I'm measuring at around 17 3/4" from that hypothetical area.
I left checks on the other measurements that I verified.
Let me know what else I need to confirm.
