Universal Cosmic Alien cocktail

Hi everyone,

MY PC crapped out at the beginning of lockdown so to sort it I bit the bullet and sold my Leisure 2000 machine to fund it and it never sits right with me if I don't have a machine in the house, watching The King Of Arcades on the firestick recently got me looking a bit more too, so I've been looking on Facebook Marketplace the past couple of weeks on the off chance there was something I can afford and as it happened I got this locally. Its still in the car for now.

I'd have prefered an upright of some description ideally but happy with this and it wasn't any hassle picking up and getting here, I do like the design of it as well, glass is a bit scratched but not overly bad for now. One side is rusted up where the Universal sticker is as per the pics but the other side seems to be wood? Might be wrong there though.

Its got some sort of fault which i'm hoping is just the board, the pics i'll put up are what was on the marketplace listing but it shows the screen and what its doing.

Hmm thinking about it how do I upload pics now, not done it since photobucket changed?

I'll have a Google and upload the pics shortly. Ah looking at another post postimage is what i'm needing

I brought it in the house this morning and had a look at the game board, my skill with game boards is at the very basic end, but made sure all the socketed romchips were seated, a few seemed to sit in a bit better, fired it up and still the same screen so tried again and removed the harness and put that back and it fired up. Didn't really expect that but i'm made up now

Looks like i've put this in the wrong section though sorry. Should have gone in the members machines section
