800 for a cab all in delivered is pretty good. Cheapest I've ever seen one from Ronnie (even with the postage being 50 euro more expensive than usual)

Oh yeah it's definitely not astronomical at all, I'll sleep on it and see.

I think it was about 900 to get my blast city here a few years ago.

Seen lads on UK vac getting cabs from the US landed in the UK for £300 each.

Cab Looks great good decision

beejee · 22-01-2019 6:14pm

Should be cool!

o1s1n · 23-01-2019 1:43pm

Can't wait to see this when it lands. Would be fun trying to get the LCD at the top working. I think it's just a matter of connecting up some JVS games like Tekken.

Just came across this game in my mame collection that was literally made for Arcade fetishists!

I see that it had a Saturn and PS4 release so its not exactly rare but some people might not know it.

Flying through rooms of Candy cabs, with close up shots while cocktail cabinets try to destroy you is just mad!

Not to mention flying over arcade boards and chips later on in the game.

I have an original Jaleco System 32 PCB of that, it's really big.

Found an old photo;

One of the Candy's is playing Final Fight

TechnoFreek · 30-01-2019 7:43pm

Anyone with a time crisis cab able to help muddymusic (olly) out over on ukvac with photos of some artwork to assist him scanning and plotting the full set?

Optimus Prime · 31-01-2019 1:10am

It was myself that had the time crisis. I sold it about a year or so ago though !

Jack burton · 01-02-2019 5:04pm

The Cyber Lead ships Monday.

Don't be afraid to haggle a bit with Ronnie lads.....;)

o1s1n · 01-02-2019 5:20pm

I did with my Pony actually and got free shipping! Had completely forgotten about that.

Cant wait to see some boudoir photos when she lands!

eddhorse · 01-02-2019 7:21pm

So exciting, love another candy cab. Blast city maybe this time.

o1s1n · 12-02-2019 4:57pm

Anyone see a two player, 6 button control panel for sale on an arcade site recently? (The small rectangular types that fit Aeros, SNK cabs etc?)

Thinking of finally giving into function over aesthetic and fitting one to my SNK cabinet so I can play some SF2 CE again.

Seriously though, where the feck is this Cyber-Lead/Jack Burton? I hope he didn't get crushed :eek:

safetyboy · 13-02-2019 11:22am

I can only stand outside this thread looking shiftly in a brown trenchcoat for so long

Not sure if anyone has a Japanese cabinet with a missing ashtray arm thingy, but there's a dude over on AO putting together repros for 20 quid each and they look pretty good. (I've been on the lookout for one now for years)

Kidchameleon · 13-02-2019 7:30pm

My god, I remember the arcades in Butlins had ashtrays all over the cabs

beejee · 13-02-2019 7:54pm

Those black ones that were on hinges, its like every cabinet in the country had them dangling off the sides. Even quirkeys had them, but I never remember anyone smoking in there. Barneys was a different story!

Distinctly remember one of the lost world guns having a cigarette hole burned right through the casing, you could only do that by hoofing a smoke and sticking it there over and over and over!

Optimus Prime · 13-02-2019 8:25pm

There’s one of those hinged ash trays on my Getaway pinball.

Seems timely, theres a lad selling parts from cyberlead, in case urs is missing any bits...

Just a heads up... and well wear on the new cab

https://forum.arcadeotaku.com/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=39482

Jack burton · 14-02-2019 11:53pm

Thanks for the heads up Kevin

Posted on it there. I'd like that DC PS interface, so odd looking.

Cant hurt to have a second CP either.

BGOllie · 15-02-2019 10:41am

I don't care for candy cabs but I have to admit that cab looks cooooool af Jack Burton

Jack burton · 15-02-2019 1:03pm

Yeah, still no sign of my Stepdown so haven't even turned it on yet haha

safetyboy · 15-02-2019 2:15pm

Is it a JVS to Jamma? If so the coin mech wont work, well doesnt on my NNC

Jack burton · 15-02-2019 5:46pm

Yeah it's JVS with a jamma adaptor. Going to try and find a Namco game to run in it.

eddhorse · 15-02-2019 9:06pm

I think i have a maplins stepdown somewhere , weighs a tonne.

geotrig · 19-02-2019 10:43am

@jackburton to inspire you a bit !

Jack burton · 19-02-2019 5:20pm

That's the exact reason I'm trying to get a Namco board for it!

o1s1n · 20-02-2019 2:03pm

Just ordered one of those SNK ashtray holders - they weren't too pricey at 20 euro, but the shipping doubled it to 40 :O

Still, I've been on the lookout for one for so long to complete that cabinet that I went for it.

20-02-2019 2:04pm

Crap!! i ordered 2 yesterday , could have shipped them together..

o1s1n · 20-02-2019 2:13pm

Ah that's unfortunate!

What cabs you going to stick them on?

I note that my Pony has two mounting holes for the holder mechanism but no mechanism itself unfortunately. Would be great to get one on there too.

20-02-2019 2:17pm

Aero and neo candy 29 i picked up on AO.. I have the piece and access to a lathe so iam going to try recreate the needed piece, if its a success ill let you know, and offer them up to others.

o1s1n · 20-02-2019 2:23pm

Excellent! Sure let me know how you get on

On a side point, I picked a fine time to give up smoking cigarettes...:pac:

Jack burton · 20-02-2019 6:27pm

I need a full new set of locks for my Cyber Lead.

Anyone be able to recommend me someplace to buy a set? New or used doesn't really matter to me.

I was thinking of getting a few of these type of locks

https://www.ebay.com/itm/Arcade-Pinball ... 1910462170

If they fit. I'll have to measure up tonight

BGOllie · 20-02-2019 8:17pm

just received and fitted the artwork for the Kung fu Master cab and moved it in the game room

Glad I finally got this one done

My nephew and niece was up tonight and wanted to try out the arcade1up.
Don't have the 2nd player joystick installed yet so they took turns.

Threw on metal slug for my niece and she said it was better than Roblox or any PS4 game! She's about 13 years old.
My nephew who's about 6 got distracted by all the synthesizers keyboards so was having a little rave for himself instead of playing the arcade! :pac:

Just great to see the younger generation enjoying the action and addictiveness of arcade games, they were something special.

airmax87 · 22-02-2019 11:19am

Any update on the superdome in palmerstown?
Were the cabs/machines all snapped up by someone or whats the craic.

Jack burton · 23-02-2019 12:56pm

So my airlink stepdown the cyberlead finally arrived, plugged it in and nothing....****.

According to the plate on the cab it needs 100v and 97W. The airlink stepdown gives 100V and 100W so should have been perfect. Talked to O1s1n and reckoned the power from the wall was a bit weak so it's not getting enough juice. The AO wiki lists the machine as 120W as well so that could have been it too.

This morning I got the same converter I used for my blast city for years. 110V and 350W. Should be more than enough to run it and still inside the allowence to not blow up the cab.....still dead

Had a quick check inside and seen this crispy joy

I've emailed Ronnie about it, I didn't have much time to really check everything out between work and stuff. Next step is to check out all the fuses.

Needless to say, so far, there's nothing sweet about this candy

Jack burton · 23-02-2019 4:30pm

So emailed Ronnie. Told me the cab is 220v!

I'll plug it in when I'm home

Jack burton · 24-02-2019 3:40pm

So I plugged the cab into our Irish mains.... nothing. Checked the fuses and it blew a 4A fuse, I thought could have been an issue from being underpowered with 110 so tried a new one. Blew the **** out of it instantly.

So something is rotten in the state of Denmark
