Your name is spot on. You got to go to Koval's? That place is EM heaven on earth. His photo album is on CoinOpSpace. I'm wicked jealous...

Did you pick up the Panzer. I've seen this in a photo of his collection.

I hope that baby is sitting in your lounge. By the way checked your site out too you have quite the collection.

Take care and talk to you soon.

That's good news...glad you finally got your Panzer. I'm heading back down this morning to work on the SAMI. I keep getting side tracked with kids and the holiday of coarse. However I should be able to get a lot accomplished this morning.

As a father of three teenage daughters and two adult sons something is always pulling me away from the cave.

For example tonight I'll be heading to the Justin Bieber concert with my daughters. They think they're sitting at the top of the stadium...they'll be very close to the stage.

Enjoy that Panzer Luckyman...you've waited a very long time to own one!

Awesome EM score! Panzers and stukas, it don't get no better than that.

One of my favorites as young teen in the mid 70's... Yeah, the side art and bezel graphics rock.

Other similar EM faves of mine from the time were Desert Fox, El Alamein...

But whatever you do, don't use the Desert Fox as an avatar:rolleyes:

id like to see how the game play is with those 2 machines.. looks right up my alley!!!
I'm pretty sure you'd like them, if you could find them... they're not tank vs. tank/ground target, but are airplane attacking ground targets WWII theme games. Pretty much the same as far as the stick control. Still really cool for EMs.

I used to play Desert Fox at Aladdin's Castle all the time when mom was shopping at the mall...

Very nice Luckyman...the artwork rocks. Would be a tall order to restore one of these cosmetically. Much like the SAMI. Those stencils were almost perfect. A true work of art.
 
Yeah man these are the.kinda.machines you CAN'T restore or reproduce. Restoring these machines is a lot harder then video machines. I just wish more repo stuff was made for EM machines

Your right EM parts are tough to find. My lower glass is cracked on my Panzer. Still thinking about a scanner and software to reproduce backglass and back plexi's. Have a Jokerball too that needs a repro and touch up with software.

That's part of the challenge of EM though...I hope your playing the crap out of that Panzer!

Man, that is a cool looking game!

I love how the viewer has the tank gun inside, a perspective trick to make it look like you are in the turret.

Luckyman,

How cool would it be to find the seat that they offered for this game? That would be a great addition to both our games...
