- Repro Instruction Sticker and Card
- Repro CPO from Quarterarcade
- Repro Insert Coin and 25 cent Stickers from This Old Game
- New Asahi Seiko Coin Insert Face Plates
- New T-Molding
- Filled, sanded and repainted in DK blue
- Rebuilt base with oak wood
- Solid wood cabinet
- Monitor chassis recapped by p1899m last year (Thanks Dan!).

$500. Local pick-up or will work with a shipping company.

See pictures below. PM me if you want more pictures and details.

Thanks!
Jess

I've seen it... it's very nice...
Sadly once you've moved it ... you'll likely cause more dings than it even has.
 
Supposedly in Japan based on the Japanese flyer. But in the US, most (if not all) were produced in particle board orange cabs. I just went with blue and I think it turned out nice. Not for the purist though. :)

Mine's Blue.
Must have been a DK conversion?

That's essentially what mine is. It was a DK converted to DK3 converted to DK Jr. I gave away the original particle board cab (edges were all jacked up) and went with solid wood.

Solid wood > Particle wood
 
Good luck with the sale Jess... it's a beautiful machine! :beerchug:

And what... you just not "into" DKjr? DKjr is my favorite Nintendo game but to each his own in this hobby. :)
 
:crying: Makes me miss the Vs Goonies cab.......

Haha. Vs. Goonies will live again Matt. The kit is ready for a new cab someday. Don't worry.

Thanks Jeff! No, it's not that at all. It's a fun game IMO. Just don't play it as much as my other Nintendo games. If one had to go, this one would be it.

Next day bump. I guess this is priced too high for the KLOV crowd and/or there's no love for DK Jr.

I'm open to reasonable trade offers as well. When I said "trying to make room," I meant for other games. :D
