Hi guys,

Does your rampart have sideart? Mine is missing and was wondering how many actually have it?

Also I was talking to a fellow rampart owner (has sideart) and he said the cpo for Orange commander was originally orange, not yellow...That it turned yellow over time. Both of ours are yellow. Does anyone remember the cpo being orange for orange commander when the game was in the arcades, or better yet, have a orange cpo?

Mine has sideart on both sides though one is peeling from a corner. (have to fix that sometime) As for the control panel my orange player side is definitely orange.
 
Mine is definitely yellow, but little spots under the heads of the bolts are more orange.

I would like to see pics of the orange cpo. Post 'em!
 
I had 3 - 3 player Ramparts at one time (only 1 now) all of them had yellow on the CPO, no hint of orange. 2 of them had side art.
 
I sadly don't have my Rampart anymore...

But, I still do have a picture of the control panel!

Thanks for the great pic FT. Its wierd...My rampart cp looks exactly the same. Yellow cpo for orange commander...My friend's is the same. I just bought a 2nd rampart serial#006, once housed in the atari HQ and its also the same. But my friend says they were originally orange. Underneath one of the buttons is also orange, which leads me to believe its true, except its odd that it would fade to yellow so uniformly? If anyone has a Rampart 3P with the original orange color for orange commander, please post so we can see it.

Ok took some pics of the beast. The more I look at it maybe it is turning yellow hmmm. I'll let folks judge.

tom.... did you buy this one from scott? if so, congrats man :) since its such a low serial number i'm curious if the game has any different roms / slight changes to the gameplay. very cool score fo sho'. chris
 
Thanks for the pic Vesperillo. Hard to say definitively whether its yellow or orange.. does the cpo appear faded in any way? It sure doesnt appear faded from the pic. The red definitely looks redder than all of the ones I've seen.

Chris, I'm awaiting delivery...I picked it up from a collector up north named William. It was listed obscurely on CL. May have overpaid abit, but didnt want to miss out on it. Dunno if Dave told ya but my games are all at home now, once everything gets straightened out and it cools down a little (well ok alot) I'd like to have ya guys over to play some vids including some Rampart. Speaking of which, has Keith hosted any shindigs lately?
