It's not a label, it's painted on the cabinet...

At least mine is.

bugga. means to paint it on i'll need a template. got an old taito defender cabinet to fix up and need the logo for it. prob really need a scan i suppose but a pic may suffice.

any chance you could take some pics for me and measure the width and height ?

or has anyone already done this ? i have searched but not yet found anything...
 
baahhaaa... I thought I knew someone who had a cabinet that might be able to scan it for you over at AA.. but then I realised it was your cab :)

I'm still kicking myself over a local New Zealand auction a month or two back for one NOS Taito Defender sideart sticker. This was the big (about two foot across) sticker that went on the side of their Defender cabs. I put in a placeholder bid of NZ$5 then completely forgot about it and someone got it for a few cents more. I have no use for it but I was going to scan it for the arcade community. I'm hoping one of the New Zealand collectors got it and will scan it but I haven't seen any talk of it on AA.

there was one that was up for sale recently, an empty cab, blue/darkblue striped of the right type, but lost track of what happened to that. mine is of the red/black striped varety but the logo may or may not exist under the black paint ove rthe top. havent seen it yet and i am going to have to repaint it anyway.

sigh.

was it an ebay auction by any chance ?
 
No, it was on www.Trademe.co.nz, an NZ-only auction site. I'll see if I can find the auction and the buyer, but it's probably too old now (like ebay, they list items only for a short period of time). I saved the jpeg of the artwork, but that hard drive died. If I can pull it off the drive, I'll post it here. It was the large circular image just visible on the side of the cabinet in the picture here. (It had a slight crease but no other visible damage.)

Hi guys

I need your help. I've been looking some pics of that Taito Defender control panel for years (See here: http://forums.arcade-museum.com/showthread.php?t=64648 ).

Do you guys have access to one of those Taito Defender? Please take a nice picture of that control panel...

Thanks in advance!

sorry! mine has an LAI stenciled cp that has the same design as the normal defender cp, with a standard defender js and button pattern :001_ssad:
 
It's not a label, it's painted on the cabinet...

At least mine is.

(lightbulb! sudden thought maybe) does that mean it has the taito sticker has been applied over the taitronics part ? or is it all painted on ?

regardless, womndering f you could measure the width and height of the taitronics "label" (outside edge of the white border) and the width/height of the taitronics text ? from that and other photos i can repro the main body of the label (the taito design i can get out of the manual)

Hey mate, I had one of those but sold it. One of my mates has one though so I can get the pics or a scan of it. I also know where there is one for sale so I might buy it as I don't have a Defender right now.

Either way, I can help you out.

Hows this?
