Atari Cabaret collection - who has them all ?

[Rasputin]

 

[Bensonrad]

Would the Euro versions of Time Pilot, Millipede, Food Fight be considered as cabaret? they are pretty small, just not micro size like the ones pictured/mentioned so far.

 

[Mark H]

Hi Dave - new white trackball I see, Centipede looking great, I see yours is a Euro/Irish cabaret ! Is that trackball from Suzo Happ ?

Hi Ben - yes lets extend this thread to include them if you have pictutes !

 

[Equites]

I had both an Asteroids and Tempest Cabarets.

Both now live proudly with Mark, could not have gone to a better loving home. So glad I let him pry them from me.

The Asteroids was complete but needed work, my first ever vector game.

The Tempest had been converted to a Moon Cresta variant, the thread of before/after is here;

Hi Nad - thanks for the "before and after" pictures, you did a great transformation job.

I bought the Asteroids from you 5 years ago and it's not missed a beat, all thanks to your skills and expertise.

Yes all three cabarets are well cared for as you know !!!

I just found the below picture again, is the Red Baron fake news !?

Not sure where the new trackball came from as it was included when I bought the cab and all the parts to put it back together.
Hopefully getting the pcb back from mark at retroclinc tomorrow. I've installed the go7 chassis and ar2 board I got back from gunblade so should be all ok for a few more years!

Sold mine a while back, not sure who owns it now but didn't really fit in with my other Cabs! Nice to have a collection of Cabarets if you can find them though!

I have just the one, delivered just last weekend

If anyone can provide the rear door dimensions (including vent/keyhole size/locations), it would be much appreciated...need to replace the missing one

 

[Bods]

Here ya go Milky

84cm long

3 under 19" wide

small bit of wood is 3 under 17" long

height 5.3cm

Assuming that is the original door it's 3/4" thick which is 20mm, fits the cab perfect and same as the rest of the back, there is a vent above the door on mine but not in the door

[Milky]

You legend ! Thank you so much

There is no vent in mine, so guessing maybe there was one on the door? Trying to find a good shot of a BZ's arse is very difficultMilky2019-05-21 17:52:26

 

[Bods]

Your Welcome

Some pics of the back, mine needs a bit of work, apart from that and getting it running it's a nice original example

Should have Vent at Top and Bottom one I should think was a slot like Star Wars, which I think was an Inch wide when I cut out a new bit for that cab

 

[Bods]

I guess they could vary, are there Ireland built ones and USA?

Bods2019-05-21 21:28:20

 

[Milky]

Possibly. I will leave that for more learned members to confirm. I will post a pic of mine tomoz. Struggling to resize the photo to post it from my phone

 

[Bods]

That's the problem with phones and posting stuff. You need a setting to take smaller photo's or you need photo editor app on them to resize

Be interesting to see pics of the backs of a few more Battlezone cabs see if there are different styles

Anyone got photo of the back of their cabs?

 

[Digimon]

I made an AR of my digitized cab (without harness and Buttons....)

If you need dimensions I can make drawings.

you can use the AR with IOS or ANDROID devices (Phone or tablet)

[Milky]

There's a panel missing at the top, handle/vent would be there

Also; holy sh*t this site's picture functionality is baaad.

Tony Temple (arcadeblogger.com) has some great detailed pictures of the Atari cabarets that he's restored which may assist you !

Anymore cabaret pictures please ?

Cheers

Mark

I would, but I blew the last of my spare cash on a pot of blackboard paint
