congratulation

SW is working all the way. MH works, but only shows a colored spot in the middle of the screen (as seen in this very poor picture)

i didn't know about the spinner lighting up

ChadTower · « **Reply #4 on:** September 04, 2007, 11:28:34 pm »

Whoa. An MH dedicated is one of the really rare and spendy cabs. What did you pay?

Hawk Daddy · « **Reply #5 on:** September 05, 2007, 01:19:18 am »

Yeah how much was the star wars, i've never played it, and maybe I need to start looking for on it looks great. i have seen on in person when I went to pick up my centipede.

I didn't know it came with glow-in-the-dark star stickers.

Awesome score. I've never seen a MH in person. You really don't see that many pics either.

I'm rarely envious of someone's great grabs... that MH makes it hard for me to stand up.

It's probably just a fuse...

Great haul!
You should post your working SW pic you had over at klov, it always gives me warm fuzzies when I see a color vector working :-)

Nice grab ...

Better finish your barn floor before you put those beauties in there!

Holy Shnikes! What a haul. Nice work.

shardian · « **Reply #15 on:** September 05, 2007, 07:25:04 pm »

Ahh, you suck! I can live with your awesome haul, but if you say you got them for $100 each, I'll have to come burn your house down.

Did anyone else mis-read the posts and think Havok was replying to Chad?--

Well, I did mis-read Chads post. (or did I ?)

BTW... Eyedoc, you can drop those off anytime you're in the area again.... thanks.

Nice grab.

Per your request. (excuse the blur....hard to take good monitor pics)

Also, Havoc's monitor works, so something else is going on there. Most likely the VR IC I found laying in the bottom of the cab instead of soldered to the board.

NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICE!!! Bringing those to the December DFW auction? hahaha

markrvp · « **Reply #20 on:** September 06, 2007, 11:03:03 pm »

DAMMIT! You beat me by 12 hours on those cabs. I called the guy yesterday morning and he said they got picked up the night before. How come you are always in the right spot at the right time?

Actually, I beat the next guy by about 7 minutes. I have a pretty understanding wife who let me jet out immediately that evening.

Just a little update, I fixed Major Havoc! No more little colored dot on the screen. There was a voltage regulator IC broken off the board. Fixed that, and VOILA!

arcadefever · « **Reply #22 on:** September 07, 2007, 12:34:19 am »

very cool...

how the game play ?

i never it

mcfreak · « **Reply #23 on:** September 07, 2007, 11:21:51 am »

Was this a craigslist posting as I sure don't remember those games being posted.

I often wonder how something like a IC can get broken of a board. What the heck was someone doing to this poor machine that something like that would happen.

Yep, they were hidden in a posting titled: "Everything Must Go" with a whole bunch of other stuff.

ChadTower · « **Reply #26 on:** September 07, 2007, 06:21:07 pm »

I'd definitely bust out the checkbook for a dedicated Major Havoc. Trade a pin? Easily.

The Major is sold pending pick up this weekend.

You double suck.

You must have gotten an offer you couldn't refuse. I wouldn't get rid of a working Major Havoc unless someone offered me over $1000.

EyeDoc,

Great steal, Its a funny thing how many barns and sheds out here in Texas that have tons of games collecting dust. I found a guy up in Denton who had a barn full of 20 pins and at least 40 video games and slot machines. I picked up Funhouse and Black Knight pins in good condition and 2 other video games (spy hunter, gyruss ) need minor work and a double diamond slot machine all for under 700.00. Now there collecting dust in my garage waiting on parts

. Glad to see you found some great games.
