I love Q*bert. So I built my own 1/2 scale replica. But I always wanted the real thing and finally snagged one over the weekend. I feel extremely lucky to have found one, let alone one in such good shape and with a swearing marquee. I've got 5 other machines in queue, so this restore could take a while.
I plan to do the following for this partial restore:
1. Rebuild the power supply. (More on that later)
2. Replace one of the coin mechs
3. Replace the CPO
4. Re-cap the monitor
5. Replace the T-molding
6. Replace door lock and coin lock
7. Patch lockdown bar holes
8. Touch up paint here and there
9. Install the multi-Q*bert game kit
mini Q*bert's keychain and serial tag
Yes, mini Q*bert has a working knocker.
