It also had deep gouges in it. So, I removed the remaining 25% of the sticker, sanded it, repaired the gouges, and painted it. If I could find the Bally-Midway sticker that goes on it, I would get one (assuming it wasn't outrageously priced), but they're not easily found, unfortunately. The Ballys from this era (6803 mpu) aren't exactly collectible, so nobody makes repro materials for them. :( --- End quote --- Here's a vector of the cabinet art: http://www.localarcade.com/arcade_art/r1015.search.htm --- End quote --- Yeah, I've seen that before. It's close, but not quite it. From pictures I've seen of the full art, on MotorDome it's supposed to be orange instead of pink. What was left on mine confirmed that, except that it was faded a bit more yellowish than the other pictures I've seen. Quite frankly, it's not worth the $90 to me to put close-but-not-quite-it artwork, and boring artwork at that, on a sub-$300 pinball machine. I've spent more than that on playfield parts, but those are worth it to me since they impact game play. |

Anyway, back on topic, no gameroom yet, my MK cab sits in my living room so far. Our thrid bedroom is doubling as storage space at the moment, thats originally where I wanted my gameroom to go. Once we can clear it out, it's gonna become a guest bedroom. I need more room! :cry: |

The Commodore 64 has been moved to make way for the network laser printer, and the consoles have been moved around a bit. --- End quote --- Wish I'd have kept my Space Shuttle pinball machine, still have the little topper marquee tho :D. Need to find a decent pin at a decent price locally to me, that's all I'm missing from what I want in my 'room'... Well, that, and a nice cocktail machine :). |

I finally got Chad's kids to leave, so here ya go , the best money shot I can take the irony of running UMK3 right next to UMK3. I may pick up an MK1 machine today, and yes thats an MK4 CP on the ground, the game sucked but I actually really like the art (namely the 4 turning into a sword) heres an old shot that makes me laugh. |

I'm currently investigating my options. My ultimate dream is this: http://www.mombargbeton.nl/pages/mombargbeton.php http://www.mombargbeton.nl/pages/referenties_view.php?id=4 (All in Dutch, but I guess you get the piccies) It would be a prefab "cellar/basement". Here in Holland houses rarely have basements because large parts of the country are very wet clay land. We need to use piles to build anything. This would be installed in my garden. Will need some digging :D Not sure if it's possible/payable for me here... But I really do need a place to put my Atari Dominos, Pleiads Cocktail, Galaxian, Centipede, Mario Bros., Star Wars Cockpit, Konami GT Cockpit and Mame cab ! |
