Title: Missile Command Cockpit
Post by: stephenp1983 on April 19, 2007, 09:49:29 pm

Does anyone know of a place where I could find plans or possible dimensions for the missile command cockpit.  Also are these pretty rare to find and in good condition?

Thanks Tim, I have actually already viewed it there a few times.  It seems to be the best picture I could find.  I've also read on another site that only a 100 of the cockpits were made.  Does anyone know if this is true?

I thought only 3 were made?

By the time they finished the third, that trackball had eaten the hands of 5 employees, so they decided three was enough and moved on.

"Less than 100" is what I've heard. There was a site somewhere where a guy had one of these, and had pictures of the inside and whatnot, as well as some interesting information...but I can't seem to find it.

Over here: http://www.everything2.com/index.pl?node_id=1391750

It's said on there 100-200, but I don't know how reliable that is either.

It seems there's 5 people who own them over at VAPS: http://www.vaps.org/members/game_detail.php?klov_id=8715

One guy has one with a serial# of 0083.

It's definitely a rare cabinet.

Thanks for the link, I saw the one over at vaps.  I'm really wanting dimension or pictures so I could fabricate something similar to it but not exactly the same and build it.

And if anyone has any details pictures that would be great.  Specificly the inside :)

What plugin is required to view the QuickTime 3D file?
