Pit Fighter!
So a leper walks into a bar and as he gets his beer, a finger falls off. The bartender who is serving him turns and pukes all over the place. The leper, feeling bad, says, "Was it my finger falling off?" The bartender turns to him and says, "No, it's the guy dipping chips into your back."

Back in Time, base on the Back to the Future movies. The cabinet would be your time machine back to the 80's.

Imagine flux capacitor replica's installed on each side of your cabinet that pulse and glow like the real thing. Imagine a front end intro video playing the Huey Louis and the News song Back in Time. There's so many possibilities.

I came close to doing it myself but the time/money/skill involved was way beyond me.

I hope someone jumps on the idea and runs with it. I'd love to see a cab with this theme.

Something like this would be a cool CP, if you could find the artwork in the right resolution. This one is stretched beyond usefulness.

How about:  Buckaroo Banzai & the Honk Kong Cavaliers?
