Title: Can anyone identify this side art?
Post by: mow_dee on November 19, 2005, 05:02:06 am: I bought a battle-damaged cabinet recently (my first mame project) and i started sanding the sides today and found this Taito art underneath the many layers of abuse

The Taito logo is followed by taitronics.

I've done a google on it but i can't find a picture the same or what game it is.

If anyone here recognises the art/game let me know.

That's some cool sideart. Most of the Taito cabs have generic Taito sideart.

A friend thought that it might have been Alcon (slap fight).

I'd love to restore the cabinet to the original state but it's got so many holes and new additions that it'd take me a lifetime.

That's how I found it. It's cool that there's already one in there. Some have no photo reference.
