Last Stand.jpg  That is the one totally. That or the Australian Factor Sig. :D I Like that the Last Stand.jpg is simple but cool. You can see the invader quickly without trying to process the flair. It does not draw too much away from the entire cabinet. I think the others look a bit too busy IMO.

Bones, look at it this way - at least you don't have McCoy-itis where you call it done in a few weeks whether it could be improved or not ;)

JUST KIDDING McCoy, jeez ::) ;)

Thanks for the feedback guys. I have made some small adjustments and added the black edging to simulate the marquee retainer.

I suppose it's now done.....

No problem - but you still smell like a pile of old, worn gym socks soaked in kerosene and used to clean whatever's left after your dog is done eating ;)

They'll be selling Mame at Best Buy before I finish, but hopefully Best Buy will still be in business so Mission can buy the disc when he finishes his cab.
