Got a call last week from some folks wanting to sell a Pacman and Mortal Kombat. They were not arcade people, but said that they think the games were working. It was only 10 minutes away, so I called up another local collector and we went into to see them...

Oh...

My....

God...

I honestly think these were the worst arcade games I have EVER seen firsthand. The lady was nice enough, but clearly didn't know anything about these.

Turns out the Pac was a dedicated Ms. Pacman, and the MK was a dynamo Konversion. Looked like they had been in several floods over the years, dry, rinse, and repeat. Insides filled with life-shortening molds of many unusual colors. No metal part was salvageable. I pulled the 2 Midway plastic backdoor handles off for my Midway Blueprint cab, gave the lady a few bucks for them, and we got the hell out of there!

Pictures below. Don't look at them if you've just eaten!

Even if they powered up and worked I couldn't imagine they would stay working very long.
 
That Ms pac cab is a good DPtwiz transplant candidate. Get it!

I wish! The insides were literally disintegrating, metal and all. I considered myself lucky to snag the 2 plastic midway handles for my blueprint without dieing of mold in my lungs!
 
Were this the listing for like $250.00? I can't believe someone wanted money for that Ms. Pac.
