That's just a converted PacMan cab. I'm not sure if Dead Angle ever had a dedicated cabinet, or was just sold as a conversion kit.

Under the "rarity" portion of KLOV it notes the game as having a dedicated version. That cabinet could be a conversion however.

Of course that's a conversion. That's what I hate about KLOV. These idiots submit all sorts of photos that aren't original and it messes up an otherwise useful "documentary" tool.  >:(

Midway stopped making cabinets like that around 83. Maybe 84. Dead Angle is made by FABTEK in 88. Completely unrelated, so definitely a conversion.

But hey, thanks for letting me know about this game! I like Empire City and never knew it had a sequel!
NO MORE!!

Your welcome? Hehe, yeah - the game ain't bad. I played it a bit and learned about Empire City. I'm asking because I could possibly get a dead angle cabinet - but I wanted to convert it to Galaga. The cabinet looks like a galaga cabinet to me. Ah well, I might just build one...
