Thought I'd get up some pics of my latest cab, a Coinmaster Picman (aka Pacman), I managed to buy this on ebay from an someone that was an operator back in the day, this particular cab he kept for himself until present day, although it had not been used for quite a few years. Shame I'd not seen his listings prior to this cab as he cleared out loads of PCBs on ebay that went for pretty low prices and I am sure I'd have had a punt on some. So origins of this cab, were it is from Coinmaster, Cardiff in Wales. Funny as quite a few of my cabs have come from Wales (Outrun and Paperboy both came from Barry).
The cab came with a what is thought to be MS Pacman bootleg in it and an original Midway Packman PCB, the op was not sure if the Packman pcb was in it originally.
Cab itself looks pretty unmolested, just a bit dusty and could do with a little tidying up. I was surprised at the monitor size, as had thought it was a 14" monitor, but it looks to be a 19". Sadly both PCB don't work, so can't actually play a game on it, the screen just bought up random lines and graphics.
Below are some pics of insides/outside and the 3 page manual I found inside along with 2 old 10ps and 2p coin. This had a date in 1981 scribbled on the back, which makes me think the cab dates from around then.
If anyone knows anything about these cabs or the monitors, then feel free to add to this thread.
