Lovely write up! Thanks for sharing.

Well done chaps, some beautiful stuff there.

Wow. Top work, gentlemen! I put my back out just reading the blog. That sure is a load of Goliaths. What was the price on the NIB Phoenix cocktail, BTW?

 

[Chopper79]

Nice, but are they all going in the for sale section?

 

[aztecca]

Awesome I love reading about these raids.

Incredible stuff. The TX1 looks to have survived well.

 

[jase38]

Awesome write up and some stunning cabs, well done to everyone involved.

I hope Arcade Club got the TX-1, I'd love to have a go on that.

Fantastic write up Tony! Hope the TX-1 ends up at Arcade Club!

It’s with us and will be making an appearance in the future

Hoorah! Well done Andy! I haven't played on a TX-1 since the early 80's in Great Yarmouth. Fab game.

Nice write up and some nice cabs, wish I’d known there was a red tent sitting idle an hour away from me! Still glad it’s not idle anymore at least ..

 

[Shinydaz]

Nice work guys !

 

[aeroflott]

Huge thanks needs to go out to Andy here from Arcade Club. Without his involvement, the raid would not have happened.

 

[neo-geo-mvs]

Amazing work! Congrats!!!

Wow, quite a haul indeed, amazing that an arcade pretty consisting of older stuff like that was still around, like going back in time that to the mid 90s. A real find indeed. Well done on all on saving it.

 

[Lardonate]

Amazing finds and yeah incredible that a place like that existed pretty much untouched up until now. Place looks like a time capsule of an arcade from around 1990. I'd like to see that TX-1 up and running, that was the first game I encountered down the arcades that blew me away with what arcade games could be, having only really played ZX Spectrum games before seeing that.

And calling Goliaths undesirable! I love my Goliath very much, so many fond memories of playing pretty much all Jamma titles on them back in the day!

Yeah I'd take a Goliath any day, but the king of generic cabs has to be the Xenon
