Permalink Reply by ====== on January 28, 2012 at 8:56pm Funny you should bring this up. I was just doing some research on some of the different DECO cabinets for Burgertime and came across this cabinet. Ive never seen one like this nor can i find any info on the model type. Ive looked through all the DECO flyers and this is the only title i could find associated with this cabinet.

that makes me wonder what are some of the more obscure games I've never seen. I pretty much lived in the arcades from 80-83 and I though I've seen them all.
now I really miss the 80s :)

We've seen one pop up at the Winston Salem auction this year with a generic DECO marquee. Then there were two others, one on Klov from April that was an Astro Fighter, and another AF on BYOAC.
Chris, do we have half of what still exists? ; )
Looking for backup parts - If you have any DECO bezels, marquees, or kits in the plastic sleeves please contact us.
@Chris - PS. Notice the black joystick in the flyer...

Permalink Reply by Chris Moore on January 29, 2012 at 3:20pm I saw the joystick, does the cab in the flyer look a bit curvier to you? When the base is attached to the astro fighter cab, they meet to create a seamless shape, where the one in mad alien butts out. Couldn't resist :-)
I was thinking the same thing, always thinking about curves. Curvier and taller...
Permalink Reply by ====== on January 29, 2012 at 7:39pm So what model number does DECO indicate these as ?
Permalink Reply by Bill Jr. on January 29, 2012 at 8:43pm I think a couple of my arcade friends on SmugBoog posted some images of the machines recently. The more I look at these the more I want one. Unique and odd and cool.
Do all four of these have PCB's?

Let me know if you want to turn your quad into a quint, I know where another pretty nice one is at! I also know a guy with a handful of DECO marquees (some, presumably NOS) still in their plastic sleeves (but those are for the full size DECO cabinet, not the ultra-mini).
