Man, I loved Rygar.
I think the video looks good for a late 70s tube! As for using it in a cab, hey that TV was hi res compared to most (all?
) arcade monitors of those days, right? I think using an era-similar romset would really set it off. I envision a 3/4" bezel hugging those curves in a dark-stained ash wood mini bartop with 1/2" black leather t-molding and I gotta say, the pants get a little tight.
I then envision the same monitor in a 27" cab and the pants get loose again. But I'm a proportion guy - I don't mind a little junk in the trunk if the rack is stacked, know what I'm saying?
I'm eager to here more about this project, looking forward to reading what you decide! Good luck
