Alca Bomber

[giantkeeling]

Just got this Alca Bomber. It's been converted to Jamma and has a 48 in 1 board in it which is apparently 'stuck' on Scramble. Love it!

And here it is the right way round!

very nice cab

i nearly bought this myself as i have an alca galactica which would have looked nice next to it

if you get fed up with it in the future let me know

 

[giantkeeling]

Will do. Can't see that happening for quite a while though!

What's the cocktail being used as a stand for the Crimbo tree? Looks pretty compact. Nice santa hat on the Space invader.

This is what the tree is stood on, there's not much space left in my living room! It's a bootleg Phoenix.

Very nice.

There was one of these on eBay for ages, but the seller wanted some stupid amount of money for it.

 

[giantkeeling]

It's probably the same one. It was listed for £400 for a while, but i looked last week and it was down to £350 with a 'make an offer' button. I offered £250, and he accepted. He also delivered it from Wolverhampton to Lichfield for £20. Very happy with it.

That's the one. Well, you got it for a much more realistic price, well done.

I love Scramble, and these little cabs are great.

I just noticed the Santa hat on the Space Invader!

Brilliant!

 

[giantkeeling]

Thanks mate! Last Christmas, Play.com had a contest on Twitter to win a Pacman mug. They wanted a retro game Christmas picture. I sent in a pic of my Space Invader with the Christmas hat on and i won the mug. Earlier this summer i was searching on Play for a retro arcade game t shirt. As i scrolled through, imagine my surprise when i came accross a t shirt with almost exactly the same design! I think someone nicked my idea.

I very nearly had that off anj just to flip back on ebay for £595!

 

[Fuzzy]

Didn't realise anj was the seller.

I was at his place recently with Otto, too.

The invader with the Santa hat rocks.

 

[giantkeeling]

Thanks!

Thanks guys, enjoying it very much! It's got to be my best Christmas present ever! Even if i did have to buy it for myself! Even better than Bigtrak and an Atari 2600, which were my previous favourite Xmas pressies!
