My Lucky ,then not so Lucky Deal On "EBAY" ^.< (Final_Fight)

[Otraotaku]

I was looking through ebay one week under one of my favorite searches and I found a great buy, A Final Fight One Cabinet which looks fairly clean, and works 100%

for the low,low price of $150! I guess the odds are with you when your bidding on Local pick ups in certain states... ^.<

PS: I am also Putting my MGCD up for auction now on ebay, along with the possibility of my Suicide Free boards (EX. MVSC

[IG-88]

Nice looking cab. I got one of those in my garage that I got along with some empties, tho mine is not as clean. It a fun game, the neighborhood kids love it! I always thought of putting it back in service.....

[dabone]

Now the question is..


Which williams game was it originally??


Later,
dabone

[Otraotaku]

Ill have to remember to ask him when I go pick it up later this week... ^.<

Just post a full side pic and somebody around here can tell you.  Looks like a clean cab.  Nice catch.

Okay I brought it home and as some of you already know the Screen is stuck on Red, and some of the other Dials/Knobs are broken... I also noticed that the paint underneath is gray and blue... any Idea what it was before the conversion?

[Otraotaku]

Just to add, that this was working 100% when it was sitting at the rink where I had picked it up from, If you have any Suggestions on how to fix the monitor Please Send me a Tell... ^.<

I checked on Klov, and moon patrol has blue and gray side art but i pealed a little bit of paint further off to find a combination of blue,gray and red?! but the base color of the cabinet is gray....

DIrect quote from Ken Layton:

"You have a "heater to cathode" short inside the neck of the picture tube. Sometimes connecting it to a picture tube rejuvenator (a piece of test equipment sometimes called a 'restorer-analyzer') can blast the short out and fix it. Randy Fromm's website has a tech section detailing a homemade fix for this problem. "

I have this same problem on my P.O.W. I haven't had a chance to try it out on my cab yet.

Whoa? the jizza'whatzit? lol, I think i under stand the short part... but I also noticed that all the red knobs are bent far off the board and are no longer on their leads... is this bad? They are hanging by a metal piece thou...

I can try and take a pic when i get home but it wont be very detailed considering that its hard to see as it is... >.<

Try soldering the knobs back on, you may have to purchase replacement knobs (pots). If that doesn't fix your problem, then you may have what I posted.

Robotron.

[Otraotaku]

im not so sure, the picture of the paint was pretty far down the cabinet and its art was alot more higher than that... and the KLOV.com's cabinet has a cut out Control panel-like style... and this one just goes down from the monitor to the floor with no curves on the CP?
dunno, the colors are right.. but i dunno...

[Otraotaku]

here are the Contestants So far! ^.<

[Otraotaku]

unfortunately thats all i could dig up from KLOV, >.<

I scratched away at a side and it was indeed gray, so im left to think that Karman was right it was a robotron 2084...

[paigeoliver]

That Robotron picture you just posted is not in a normal Robotron cabinet, the picture Klov has is of a rare factory conversion of another cabinet.

A REAL Robotron cabinet is here.
