I would assume there are alot of differences.

I don't know this for a fact, but I would expect that they're wider at the very least given that the reunion machine uses a much larger monitor than the original.

the combo machines are a lot deeper, poorly put together, and a helluva haevy machine...

I don't have facts, but I've seen them side by side with original Ms. Pac-man machines, and taken a pretty close look. They don't appear any wider or deeper. It's a 25" monitor in them, true, but they have a very narrow bezel compared to the original 19" version. IIRC the angle of the monitor is a little steeper, and the way the back MDF comes down to the monitor is different, but that actual depth of the cab looks the same.
I think I have some pics I can dig up if anyone really cares.

I currently have an original PacMan cab that had een converted to Galaga (full convert, not a combo thing) The two cabinets are nearly identical except I beleive there were slight differences between the front sloping parts. Compared to a combo though I cannot say but if you find plans for the original pacman you should be good to go.
