probably inside the coin tray door. My KI2 cab had those, I think my KI1 does, MKII just has black pieces of wood there.
its cut up scraps, they didnt destroy cabs to build cabs, they just used leftovers.

A Blitz cab I used to have had a bottom made from Smash TV's side. I was hoping my Smash TV cabinet had a Blitz bottom, but it did not come full circle :P

I originally thought it might be something like Missile Command or Mad Planets but im pretty sure its not. The colours and the shapes do look familiar though and that big planet decal is driving me nuts because I know I have seen it before.

This was a really common Bally/Midway practice. Other people have posted similar pics, and my Power Drive cross members are made from a hacked up Rampage.
If the MKII is in its original cabinet, I'd start looking at art from other Midway games of the same year or year before. I don't think you'll find that they were using 10 year old hacked up cabinets from another manufacturer, they were using spares and damaged cabs from their own recent production.

Popeye pinball: lower corner near front
Cabinet recycling was a common practice at Lenc-Smith. The cabinets were made out of silk screened pieces of wood, which were cut out after screening. Those that weren't made into cabinets were used for inner pieces.
