LADY MADONNA

hi
i thought everyone here would appreciate this fine piece of Japanese arcade gaming bliss. i brought this cab back in march of this year from a couple of guys of the arcade otaku forum ..its really a cab based on the sega aero witch is a cool looking cab btw
but when i saw this cab for the first time on hard-candy (a website dedicated to these amazing machines) i had to have one.
i love the colour and the artwork on the panel plus the fact that the whole cab is made out of metal .its also a dream to play and its only 25in wide about 5ft tall a real tiny cab that fits into any place you may have.
enjoy :-)



when it first arrived x/5/11




i love the way you can pull up the front like a bonnet of a car it makes getting the tv in/out to change tv position easy work.



inside of course-it needed a lot of cleaning inside but as its a cab from the late 80s that has probably has not been cleaned in a long time its looking pretty good i think.



a bit of desert war



a nice shot of the panel here you can really see its beauty

If you're a purist you should be using Japanese coins. :lol:

cheers i did not have to do much but i looks nicer..

anyway you bring up a good point how much should you restore on a cab .
i.e the side art on my astro is good but i could replace it with something much better but then it would not be in its 100% original state this dose bother me a bit.:shrug:

Coin mechs are common as hell. And yes, many of us with Japanese machines use Japanese coins. Alternatively, you could reprogram the mech.

By the way, you need to choose a more reliable picture host - it says bandwidth exceeded.

piccodle are wankers

the quality of the pics are not very good but i think they will do ..now all i need to do is re up about 80 unreleased game pics .........noooooooo
