If any of you saw my thread from last Friday, you saw that I finally struck a deal to trade away my Red Tent. I picked up this Robotron cab that houses a JROK Multi-Williams PCB in exchange:
Robotron is easily the coolest Williams cab (IMO), and the multi kit is amazing. For my $, Robotron, Joust, and Bubbles will be the games that get played the most. I love the easy to navigate menu too. JROK gets thumbs up from me on this kit. As far as the cab goes, she needs bondo work, and new stencils but she's solid and thats what matters. The CPO looks brand new, and all the buttons are nice, too. First and foremost though, I need to get some 4" wico sticks in there to make Robotron feel better. I did put up a 210K score with the 3.5"s but its just not the same.
My thoughts on these games -
Defender - Defender is pretty cool when played in arcade form. Im terrible though.
Stargate - see above
Robotron - flat out amazing. The real reason to own this PCB.
Joust - rocks. I played a handful of Joust games, and even managed a 110K score. Not bad for someone who never played this BITD.
Bubbles - love it. I owned a Bubbles cab at one point, and hated having to let it go. Bubbles is awesome, but will take some getting used to without the optical stick.
Splat! - Splat! is cool. I only played 2 games, but enjoyed it. I look forward to spending more time with it.
Blaster - WTF? Someone needs to explain to me what to do.
Sinistar - Hard. "Beware I live" was pretty effing cool to hear though
Overall, I'm pumped to have this part of the lineup, and I thank Sav again for the easy transaction. Andy is good people, for sure.
