The name needs to be changed. Just go all in on Contra. That is a good name. I am not a fan of the army men either. However, I don't have a better idea right now. |

I didn’t realize the name was a mashup of Contra and R-Type. Eek! Why not just full camo the sides and add your new name/logo? |

I was thinking of an idea using a vinyl sticker of the Stage 3 boss (NES Contra) that could go over that the Owl Eye coindoor, using the slots as its eyes: or the Stage 3 Arcade boss (Garmakilma): Purists might not want artwork on a coindoor, but I figured if you're struggling with getting this door to feel like it belongs on a Contra theme, something along these lines could help. --- Quote from: MiteWiseacre on February 19, 2020, 01:22:37 pm ---Working on a concept for art, maybe I can find an artist help me realise this.

Both games have nothing to do with each other, other than having a theme of fighting aliens. But that could be hundreds of arcade games... Like others have said, go full-on Contra and nix the mash-up idea. A Contra tribute cabinet would be pretty sweet. You could give it a cool name that relates to the Contra Universe. Off the top of my head: - Red Falcon (Red Falcon is the terrorist organization Bill and Lance are fighting against) - Contra Clash - Contra Band ( :lol ) - Contra Continuum - Contra Attack - Contra Gryzor - C to shining C - Mission: Contra |

I like the name Red Falcon. Could probably come up with some good artwork for that. |
| MiteWiseacre:
Oh wow, now I have plenty to think about lol. Ok the name can go, watch this space for an update on the theme. The giant army men are a little erotic, my wife will adopt unrealistic expectations of men if those two are hanging around all day... |
