now don't laugh... its awkward shape doesn't look good next to many of my cabs!

I think I need a missile command or another stubby cab next to it...

Does anyone else feel this way? Am I weird?
 
i also was in the same predicament as you.....

my solution was to buy a tempest conversion MAJOR HAVOC to put next to it.

the 2 games together is a beautiful thing!

My Tempest looks very happy next to it's Uncle, Lunar Lander ;)
It's cousin Star Wars will one day move on to the block but for now, 2nd cousin Missile command is there to keep up the Atari name.

Talk about goofy, my kids new favorite Radikal Bikers will simply have to go in another room.
 
I like the machine but dang it looks funny next to my others....like it's leaning back trying to look "cool"....:cool:

Tempest is the coolest F'ing machine ever made. You need to move it to the other end so everyone can see the badass sideart!

I had mine that way as well, next to an Asteroids, but thought it looked funny, since Asteroids is leaning forward and Tempest backward. So, I moved Asteroids to the other end and put it next to Gravitar, which is more upright, and even leaning back a little.

Does anyone have pictures of a Tempest and Missile Command together?
 
I was in the same situation, where to stick that goofy Tempest. I think I finally figured out a nice look with an Atari row here, putting similar shapes and slants next to each other.

Here, use this one. Anything will look alot better, setting next to this... even a Tempest.

That is funny!

xxstatic, mine is similar to yours... I put it next to AD... my entire row is:

[Defender] - [Gorf] - [SW] - [AD] - [Tempest]

I think the AD isn't really the best buddy for a Tempest, I agree it needs to be next to a cab with similar angles.
