I have mine in a Namco Cyberlead cabinet. It absolutely rocks! The Japanese sit downs were made for MAME. I will try to get some pics up.

Mr-Megalo, I am envious, and at the same time speachless.  How in the hell do you aquire so damn many candy's!?  I'd settle for one candy cab and makeing it a multi machine marvel, alas, i am broke.  I blame the local gas prices :o.   In other news, what's that black cab, never seen one of thoes before.  And of course, its no surprise that Mr-Megalo owns himself a megalo cabinet ;D.

Cheers, as they say!

-Seven7-

btw, the cab with the led marquee, howd ya do that?

Mr-Megalo, out of interest where do you purchase Japanese style cabs in the UK?

Thanks in advance.

www.killercabs.com  :)

Thanks. I remember seeing that site before but I'd lost the link.

What I'd like to know is why 99% of these cabs are white? A black or dark blue one would look really cool.

Do you know whether Killercabs can obtain Exceleena Blue cabs like the one in this link?

They look pretty damn cool IMHO.

I think the main reason is that white doesn't show chips as easily as black.

I've got a Jaleco pony that is shot over with appliance paint.
I think they look alot nicer in black as well.

Mine's going to be a Neo cab, as soon as my board arrives from Gozur.

Mr. Megalo,
 Awesome Cyberlead Cab! I know you guys do parts, any way you can get me a replacement control panel for mine?

Also, I have figured out how to change the LED sign. The lasy pre-set is pac man chasing a ghost! I will post pics of mine tomorrow as my new webhost will be up.

Thanks,

Toonces

you would have to contact TJ via killercabs to see if he can obtain Cyberlead panels, i know he can get Sega ones for the Astro's / Naomi's Aero Citys etc but unsure about the Namco cabs.

yea I too have the Pacman & ghost chasing each other, i wish i coudl re-program the LED screen but you need some sort of inout device that uses a PS2 keyboard connection.
