Arcade cabinet name / dimensions

I'm looking at building a cabinet like this one. Does anyone know what it is or where I can find some plans or dimensions for it?

Cheers

You got me. A cabaret of some sort. I think it's a bit on the ugly side and the fact that it's sporting around a galaga marquee makes me dislike it even more.

Looks like it's running a front end of some sort. You think it may be a cabinet someone else built?

Definitely a front end and a kind of wacky Galage marquee.   

Plust it's some kind of low-boy and cabaret combo action on the cab style.

I saw one in my local pizza shop the other week. I like the compact size, it would fit my place much better than other larger uprights. Maybe it was an Aussie design and not released in other countries.

It's very similar to this Astro Fighter cab that was for sale near me awhile back.
Unfortunately I got outbid, so I have no measurements for you.
