My collection 19/04/2014

[chubsta]

May be thinning it out as to be honest i don't switch them on from one month to the next but they sure look pretty! (well, except the two cocktails in my 'project room' - they are used more as tables for junk than anything else, although they both work ok...)

Lordsvale MVS with a 4-slot but running a 161-in-1 cart - fully working

Star wars with ESB kit - fully working

GORF - fully working

Joust - fully working

Defender - needs artwork on sides and front but fully working

Sinistar - works 100% and is my most reliable cab but the artwork on the sides could do with a refurb

Judge Dredd pin - fully working

Dedicated Burget Time cocktail - fully working but has a monitor wobble when the lid is down but not up - electrical interference i guess but haven't been able to track down the cause yet, haven't actually tried that hard though

Sega Astro City - running a decased PC with groovymame for horizontal games

Atomiswave SD - running a decased PC with groovymame for vert games

Nintendo Space fever cocktail - was unable to save the monitor or boards so has a decased portable CRT tv and is running a 60-in-1

Nintendo Space Firebird - has a bootleg Pleiads board inside - fully working, hopefully will get hold of Space Firebird boards one day

And that is my little collection! As i said, i hardly touch them these days, back problems mean sitting hunched over the candy or standing at the others are all painful. Plus, i am tending to get more into consoles again and am trying to build an Atari VCS bar top but am having problems getting a kit that would fit a 14"crt screen in.

And sorry about the poor quality phone photos!

They sure do look pretty as you say, quality collection of old school classics with some nice modern candies thrown in for good measure

I was seriously considering your Defender about a month ago! Nothing a Stencil kit wouldn't fix!
I got a good deal on another and closer to home too.

Joust (Euro?) and Sinistar, nice! I needs me more Williams!

That's a really nice collection. Euro Joust looks in good nick. What's the side art like?

 

[Equites]

I thought you had gotten rid of much of your collection, good to see it is still intact.

i would love those candy cabs if you ever decide to sell

 

[Nintendo Arcade]

Great collection of cabs
Shame about the Nintendo cocktails not having the right pcbs in
I do have a spare spacefirebird pcb if you want to buy it
Let me know

Lovely looking Lordsvale MVS cab, couple of those been up recently shame I keep missing them that said they are usually at the wrong end of the country.

Great collection dude, well done.

Side art is pretty nice, unfortunately some dodgy bird scrawled her name on this side but i don't mind a bit of 'history' to my cabs...

I went through a stage a while back where i was fed up with them being unreliable - i bought two cabs at the same time and the monitors went - my other half however persuaded me to hold onto them and just forget about them for a while, which seems to have been a good idea as i feel less stressed now.

fortunately, since everything was fixed they all seem to be working now, although i am thinking about getting rid of the SW as it is a high-value cab that i am not very good at and i can think of another couple of cabs would rather play these day, that is still up in the air though...

[Milky]

Very awesome collection dude!

RE starwars theres no rush i would need to get rid of a cab to fit it in any road, please just keep me in mind.
