GameRoomSolutions Fat Boy - TMNT Build

(1/6) > >>

smaka:
I got a TMNT "Fat Boy" cabinet from GameRoomSolutions (GRS). This was a blind buy.

What I wanted:
- A dedicated idiot-box with a "super console" and "arcade"

Why I did it:
- After running the numbers, I concluded this only cost $300 more than a DIY project
- They did all the graphic work, t-molding, printing and even applied the art to the cab prior to shipping
- The shipping was free
- They made the cabinet and shipped fast!!!!!
- The offer services at every level... I went the DIY route. They made the cabinet but everything else was on me!!!

smaka:
The cabinet was delivered in surprisingly small boxes. The cabinet was designed in a way that allows it to be broken down and quickly assembled.

Zeosstud:
That setup is going to serve you well for a very long time. You happen to have a link to the exact monitor you got handy?

Thanks,
Zeosstud

smaka:
Shipping was super fast! Everything was tightly bubble wrapped. All corners were well protected.

smaka:
The side panels are cut in half to make shipping easier. This particular has a top that over-laps the bottom. I didn't like this at first, but it grew on me. Also being able to disassemble this cabinet is a huge benifit!
