About two years ago I found the marquee to super glob while digging in a box of marquees, I stopped and had to look up the game immediately. What in the elevator paction was all I could think. A few weeks later I stumbled upon the bezel for the game and at that point I figured there was a good possibility the daughter board was somewhere.
About two to three months later I stumbled upon the daughter board in a box with Ms pac daughter board, relaxing I was missing the chips for the pac PCB I set the daughter board aside.
Then one day while testing a box of pac PCbs in a cab I found chips labeled super glob I was excited now to put it all together. I dug back out the daughter board put them together and bam! Super Glob what a crazy fast pace game.
Now with the PCB, bezel and marquee in hand it was time to get it all into a cab, but like a true preservationest I didn't want to put it into a pac or ma pac with side art. So the project sat until this year my buddy mentioned that he saw an empty blue pac cab so he grabbed it for me.
After sanding and priming I decided to color match the marquee so off to hone depo where it took a couple to tries to get the paint match to be able to read the orange thru the plex after a few coats the cabinet looks great.
Onto the control panel I decided my best bet was to use the normal Glob overlay as the two games use the same buttons. With the existing buttons it was easy to line up the new holes and drill them out.
The last step was to deal with the coin door which has some rust and a screw put into the coin drop as the reject button was locked inwards. I stripped it apart, sanded out all the and replacing the frozen up reject button. Then gave it a fresh coat of hammer black.
I'm thrilled with how great it turned out and can't wait to see people enjoying it this weekend at free play Florida!
