Here's some pics of my collection - I'm sure I may be able to fit one more in. Somewhere.

[Jope]

Looking good..

Marble Madness seems to pop up in everyone's collection. Just a small tinge of envy here.

Thanks for the kind comments guys. Like most, I guess, its a bit of a deep breath when you switch them on to see what is going to fail. At the moment Robotron is a little flaky but I think thats down to the power supply.

[WarmCat]

Great setup, nice to see another great condition MM.

I want your Donkey Kong machine ! Looks great, another favourite of mine.

Great setup, nice to see another great condition MM.

Thanks for the kind comments -the MM is pretty scratched up on the sides though. I could get the replacement artwork but as I have the restoration skills of Frank Spencer mangled with Norman Wisdom (one for the teenagers there) its likely to end up in a worse state if I attempt anything!

 

[JMP]

Heh, same here. Mine was re-done by the previous owner and looks good but even one side has a small crease as he confesses it was the first time he had done it himself !

You completed all the levels yet?

 

[argyledave]

You completed all the levels yet?

Yeah sure have - every time! Errrrr no. Got to the second to last level once. I suck at all games. Except Samantha Fox Strip Poker, obviously.

 

[JMP]

Heh ! Can get to the second to last level fairly often, up to the flying birds but never any further.....

You seen this?

Nice collection. Particularly like the signed Robotron marquee. MC control panel looks in good nick too, so often see these with CPOS, so nice to see one with original artwork.

Nice collection bud

So I finally got my hands on a DigDug - purchase from CurryCowboy (top man great to deal with). It went straight into a 30 people family party the day after I got it and has behaved brilliantly.

Its already got a bit of history as before that it was PacMan's and before that Rav's I believe.

Full praise to the Mrs - I was convinced we couldn't get anything else in but with her tape measure of power she worked out a new layout. Now can she repeat the trick again....

 

[derezz]

Wow what an epic place

 

[strykr]

I'd forgotten just how many nice cabs you have dave! The Dig dug will fit in nicely
