Galaga Building plans

<< < (2/5) > >>

paigeoliver:
I saw a few cabinets built off those defective plans at an auction once, they had "Multicade" artwork on them that wasn't wide enough to fit (gaps on both sides of both marquee and bezel), and they had plastic control panels (likely due to the fact that they couldn't GET a stock panel to fit at all).

The plastic control panels flexed so badly that one was broken and the overlays were ruined on both by the end of the auction, both of them were buybacks.

If you're building your own and need Galaga artwork, I have a complete set for sale.

JoyMonkey:
ArcadeShop.com sells kits, they've only got pricing on their site for fully assembled cabinets though (I'd imagine shipping would be insane for a fully assembled kit when you could assemble it yourself in an hour or so).
ArcadeGames4U.com also sells Midway style kits (they've also got shorter cabinets for the vertically challenged- I'd have to duck to be able to see the monitor).

The cabinet plans are the only ones I could find online. I know they are not the right size I was just trying to point him in the right direction. Personally I didn't want to build one that was not the right size so I searched high and low and found an empty pacman that had formica on it at a local arcade shop. Much better option in my opinion.

AlanS17:
Well a Pacman cabinet isn't exactly like a Galaga. A Ms Pacman is, though. There are some subtle difference in the shapes of the 2 cabs and the control panels are completely different from underneath.
