Phoenixarcade.com update 9-26-11

Darin - I was excited to see Track & Field upright CPO on your site, but when I click "Add To Cart" it adds the side art to my cart :( (I want that too - just not right now). Can that be fixed or can I place an order another way?
Thanks and best wishes for speedy, pain-free recovery!

Thank you for the well wishes.

It has been corrected and thanks for your order. Went out right after you placed it.

Hi everyone

Im officially home and beginning the long journey back to a full recovery. What that means for many of you is that Im shipping today and playing catch up. Im gonna be a day or two behind til the end of the week until Im 100% caught up. We plan to ship close to 100 orders today if thats any indication of my desire to get things back to normal.

I am shipping on a first come basis as always. I dont play favorites.

I got a new batch of ArcadeSD's in from Clay and we have plenty to go around. Inventory should be strong til Xmas. Spoke with Clay and the first update is coming very soon and I can tell you what lies ahead is pretty awesome. I plan to have some supporting artwork by the end of the year as well.

After a 2 year absence Track and Field upright cpos are back. Adding to site tonight.

Ast Deluxe side art finishing tomorrow and will be ready for sale next week.

MsPac Galaga Pacman cocktail glasses still being printed. Laying one color down every other day. Estimated shipping date end of October.

Still waiting on the remainder of Quantum sides to complete all outstanding orders. I have shipped every piece I received. Just need the rest and that is my #1 PRIORITY before anything else and I sincerely apologize to all who feel left out in the dark.

Food Fight side art being worked on right now. Fronts are done. Future considerations for bezel and marquee.

Lunar Lander side art and marquees (!) should be done by Tgiving.

Tapper glass marquees still working on art file. Getting closer. Date tbd.

ICB bezels still working on art file. No progress to report. Date tbd.

Reprinting MsPac glass bezels end of year if not sooner. May reprint Galaga bezels too. First quarter of 2012.

Black Widow side art, cpos and marquees hoping (praying) to be done end of year. Waiting on films from Scott Evans. The king!

I have taken an interest into getting Atari cabaret side art done now. Need to talk with Scott about films.

My personal project Id like to get done for some die hard collectors is Gauntlet 1 side art. The tall one. Just need to find the elusive films. This has been at the top of my list for several years now. Also plan to run the cpo that needs to be done right.

Please support your fellow repro guys who screen print and continue to bring the highest quality products to market with a signifigant time and upfront cost from their pockets: Rich, Michael, Anthony, Bill, Troy. Hope I didnt forget anyone. Ill blame the meds if I did!

Thank you for your continued patience and the many well wishes from so many of you. I cant thank you enough for being more than a business relationship. It really does give me extra drive to do my very best at Phoenixarcade.com

God bless.

AST DLX side art done as you may already know. The mini side art is about 3 weeks out. I did manage to slip in a small run of mini cpos that are die cut. Previous runs by others werent but still very nice. Im told they sold out.

As you know Quantum has shipped.

I managed to slip in a run of Marble Madness cpos that I think will be the cats meow compared to any other repro for this thats been released. Even the proper texture which they all got wrong.

Tapper marquee art file is nearly done. This is a bitch to print. Might be the hardest marquee ever, even moreso than Mappy. I couldnt even talk Rich into it but my Seattle printer said they could. These will be done on glass too! Been thinking about doing the mirrored bezel if the marquees sell well enough. Time to pony up on this one fellas! Dont want to promise anything, but been calling on different cast molding companies to redo the cupholders and finish them in brass to match the foot rails. This is a ways off as Im finding it challenging to find someone to do it right and for a price less than a new car :)

Last update: Cocktail glasses are all done!

Crates are being built and Old Dominion will be picking them up on Friday. They are estimating to have these to me on November 15th.

I will immediately begin shipping oders as always on a first come first shipped basis. I dont play favorites. To those that have made special arrangements with me please contact me to verify we are still doing it differently than a typical shipment.

Thanks to all those that made this happen. Those that missed out on the preorder I do have plenty of extras to go around. I dont plan on printing these anytime soon if I sell out. Ill be adding these to the shopping cart once they're in hand.
 
Awesome to hear on the MM. Just got my side art from you last week. I'm very interested in the MM cpo. ;-)

Have you decided on a price yet?

Im have a production price locked in from my main printer but Im shopping around on the laser die. What Im getting so far isnt to my liking. Not everything needs to be laser cut but this is one that would benefit from it imo.

If I cant get the laser lower its gonna be $60.

When does late summer start? I'm looking at the LL art! ;)

You're looking at the late summer date on my website Mr Smarty Pants as my son would say.

My thread starter says Tgiving. I have $100 bet riding on this with my printer. I assure you it will be soon.

Thank you!

I hope to run as many projects as I can and for the most part only held back by the availability of films. Scott has a monumental task ahead of him each time someone requests films. Its not as if theyre sitting on a shelf all catalogued by Atari. We are blessed to have this resource.
 
When are you going to start a preorder for Tapper marquees Darin? I'm interested in getting one.
 
I saw that Atari cabaret art is on the radar. Any chance of bezels? I need a centipede cabaret bezel bad! Also had a thought on your cocktail glass shipping. That high density foam for houses - I could cnc That to with a recess for the cocktail glass with a relief to lift the glass out. Put 1/4 ply on each side to sandwich it and shrinkwrap it, would he bulletproof.
