Yes big10p I got the cocktail from eBay, it's been extremely well looked after.

It has a note under the glass which says "record score 56,050, Anne Wallis 5th July 1990". Stevros2015-05-15 15:03:27

That's very cool, if I was into that game I would have to own the Deluxe

the use of the half silvered mirrors is just superb, I'd never seen original space invaders till early 2000's and it just looks so cool along with the superwide screen ninja warriors using it too and games like boot hill, worth owning those type old cabs for the effects alone, very nice

Galaxian - The sides on this are trying to fall away so a repair job beckons. While i'm at it the cab will undergo a full resto. Although the side looks ok in the pic, it's not in a great state with some trash touch ups etc. All metal parts will be powder coated.

Hey Tony,

No sir, i'm not enjoying it so much these days. My cab buying days are definitely over. I will finish Galaxian and another Donkey Kong and that's me out. I will always play DK and own a couple cabs but it's time to get rid of what is no longer wanted. I'd like to learn how to play PAC-MAN and Galaxian properly and that will keep me busy and maintain some interest.

Hey Al,

Galaxian is a cool game, even better with Macros multigame kit!

I know what you mean about resto threads - take some photos for yourself anyway and keep them for a rainy day - that's always the easy bit!

Have a great week!

This one came down from the Isle Of Man (remember Terry?) used to belong to Archer which I think he brought over from the USA.

Yes sir, Bob will be there.

For those of you who don't know, Bob is my technical engineer, general helper and a top bloke to boot!

Ha ha. Loving Bob. But loving the beautiful Ninty even more.

How I long for some Ninty goodness in my life.

Good luck with the resto, clearly in safe hands.
