here is the bonus I found in my MS PACMAN
 
"Rapid Fire" sticker is cool.

It's a Trimline mini-fest lately! Can you tell which game it was before Ms. Pac? Looks like the marquee might be painted over...?
 
So what's the story? Some chap just knock on your door saying "Hey are you the guy with all the arcade games? Ok, Well my wife told me that we need more space so... " :D
 
...

Actually i have all the emails :)
He emailed me saying that he wants 2 games out, and wanted me to take them for free. I serviced his machines about 3-4 years ago, so he remembered me. !!!
Picked them up last night around 8:30pm.

You lucky bastard! A Taito Trimline and Asteroids? Didn't you just score a DOT? I need to move to your neighborhood!

That is so cool! That Asteroids looks very nice - not to mention the cool little trimline (even if its not original).

Just looked inside the MSPACMAN trimline and realized its a COLONY 7 mini. The marquee was painted black.

Colony 7? Wow, that is a rare one. Especially in trimline form.

Do you think there is any chance of turning that Ms. Pac back into a Colony 7?

No chance of converting it back.

nothing in the machine anymore and the panel was hacked to hell.
The marquee can be saved though.

That looks like one hell of a nice Asteroids, especially for free. Congrats, man. I wish we could all be so lucky.

Wait, I just came up with the most brilliant plan that benefits us all - we should all just rotate game periodically, 'giving' them to the next guy for free. A while later, we rotate again. It'd be like we're getting new free games all the time!

Okay, since it's my idea, I'll take the first free game. Hey, that's a nice Asteroids you have there. I know you didn't pay anything for it, so how about you help a brotha out? ;)
