It's been converted to Lightning Fighters (Konami), a horrible game. I'm probably going to convert it too, but I always like to find out what it originally was. My only clues so far is that it has a Stern 1982 sticker inside, which narrows the Klov search. The sides are orange, but it does not match a frenzy cab. It looks a lot like the Tazz Mania cab pictured on Klow, but the sides are not shown. Does anyone know what color a Tazz Mania cab was?
 
Here is the Stern lineup for that type of cabinet:

Basically there are only two designs, but some have a rounded rear corner, some a squared corner. The only orange one was Minefield.

Did you find this graphic somewhere or is this from personal observation? That is pretty cool!

Doesn't everyone have a set of the silhouettes? :rolleyes:

is that file available in vector anywhere?

And orange is most likely Minefield.

I'm not giving out the vector file right now. I have over 400 games done, all vectorized at actual size. Accuracy varies depending on my data source, but all should be good enough to identify a cabinet, which is my goal.

There are a few manufacturer's sets I have thrown together, although not totally complete and I keep finding small errors here and there. They can be found at my Photobucket page. Feel free to point out any omissions and errors on my part.

Here are a few in case anyone missed what I have posted on the forum.

How come Scramble and Super Cobra are not on the Stern list?

The Stern list only includes the cabinets shown to help Neopolss identify what his game originally was. There are many other Stern cabinets I will be adding to the list, but right now consider it a work-in-progress. :)

Thanks for doing these! I grab every set you post for reference. :)
 
Minefield definitely fits the bill alright. That ugly orange/reddish paint really stands out.
 
Now we just need a website where you can upload a profile pic of your cab and the site will id it for you
