Title: MIDWAY Galaga Cab - marquee retainer question
Post by: MAME nut on October 28, 2008, 03:22:01 pm

What do the original Galaga marquee retainer strips look like??  Are they metal or plastic??  Anyone have a good source for these......or a good knock-off solution??

Thanks,
MAME Nut

They were metal c shaped strips which can be found here (http://www.mikesarcade.com/cgi-bin/store.pl?action=search&category=Game+Parts&subcategory=Midway+Parts).

My cab only had one of the retainers so I started making another from a piece of angled metal from Lowes.  It doesn't have the curve of the original but it was less than being a set from that site and I had metal leftover.
