JUNGLE HUNT VERSES JUNGLE KING?

(1/2) > >>

mammoth:
i purchased a new jungle hunt which i then of course converted to elevator action which still is working fine. questions: wasn't jungle king the same game but minor changes made because of infringement rights (or do i have that backward) - would the game be worth more if i converted it back if i found the parts at the right price - as i remember other than graphics the conversion was just a few chips  and add a control button(this was a long time ago so please feel free to straighten me out - you guys usually do anyway) thanks for any advise you can provide.

nostrebor:
King came first, Then the Tarzan people complained, then they changed it to Hunt.

AFAIK

paigeoliver:
There is no real value difference between them. I like "King" better, but only because of the Tarzan yell.

SirPeale:
And good luck finding parts.  Some stuff (hardware wise) would be pretty easy, but try finding a CPO.

nostrebor:
I'm with Paige here. I bid a Jungle King up to $85 at the KC auction. It was "fair" shape, and worked intermitently. It sold for $95. I wanted one because it was a favorite quarter muncher in my youth, and I too prefer the Tarzan(tm) yell. Neither is going to be worth big $$. To the *right* collector the King might be worth a bit more.
