Defender Restoration

(http://www.eightbitmonk.com/shared_images/Defender/defender_marquee.png)

One of the most recognizable, difficult and highest grossing games of it's day, there's nothing more reminiscent of an 80's era arcade than the sounds of a Defender. This one popped up on CL recently and I was able to get it at a great price. It's non-working and in pretty rough shape but it has all of it's parts and the cool old school coin door, I think it'll clean up nicely.

I always admired the guys that could play defender and robotron, I never could. They separate the men from the boys.
