heres a link to the megalo,

street fighter... good idea. could go for SF4. put a nice spec PC in there with a little modifications on the control panel.

 but seriously this thing needs a good clean and tidy up first before anything can be done. i'll try and get some pics uploaded

There is a nice Super Megalo 2 restore [here] that may help.

I make clear acrylic overlays for the instruction space if you need one  ;)

Are you from around the area you bought it from? (Leeds/Bradford) Or have you got it shipped to you? I've bought from Videotronics in the past, stock quality varies there.

Stock quality does vary but its going to due to the nature of the items.

Mo @ Videotronics is a great seller and he is a good guy too. He's just put a load of Nanao MS8-26 tubes up for free on AO.

I've bought from him in the past and have gotten some good deals from him.

Have had the same cab on my watch list on ebay for a while now, may get one soon.

does it come with the joy sticks, buttons and coin door?, if so its almost worth the price for those alone.

Gonna put a ps3/dreamcast in there myself. and stick it in front of my 32'' tv.
