What's your favorite upright arcade cabinet shape?

Defender
Galaga
Neo-Geo

I also love my Xmen cab, but I know the 25" monitor and oversized CP doesn't appeal to some here. Plus, its not quite a "classic" design.

I always thought the Williams 25" cabinets from the 80's like Smash TV with the "beveled" fronts look really nice...

I think the lines of my cabinet are really nice too.  I really like the angle of the monitor and the size and angle of the control panel.  It all just feels really well balanced...


I think it was originally a "Golden Axe: The Revenge of Death Adder" cabinet... http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=7968

Ive always liked the shape of the Xenophobe cabinet.  It was pretty comfortable and had that unique look.

I love the rounded curves of the Galaga/MsPacman cabs best. Their sleek top looks better to me than the bulkier shape of the PacMan/Galaxian cabs.

I also love the Moon Patrol cab. Nice and simple.

Centipede is nice too, but I guess people mentioned that one a few times already.

DougHillman:
When designing my cab,  I whipped up what I see in my mind when I reminisce upon all my days spent in dingy 80's arcades.

While it doesn't seem to be a replica of any one particular cab (as fas as I know), it's got hints of several early 80's machines in it.  

Here's an uncompleted 3D rendering that should at least give an idea.
