Title: [for sale] Sega Astro Blaster project
Post by: liquidx on February 17, 2013, 02:43:05 PM

"Fighter pilots needed in sector wars, play Astro Blaster!"

I'm doing some trimming again, so here's another cab that needs a new home.

It's a Sega Astro Blaster, the rarer teal/aqua coloured one (which I personally thinks looks better than the blue one).

It seems complete, PCB and cage are in there, etc. But it's sold as non-working/untested. From what I can remember it powers up but nothing happens, it may be something as simple as a fuse, it may be the PCB, I don't know. It's basically been in storage since I got it, and there is no power there.

Game is located in Brussels, Belgium.

Looking for €250.


Here's a video of what you can look forward to once it's up and running: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6C6k-nqJ-I0

Sorry, didn't get notified of your reply.

I don't at the moment as it's not stored near me, but I'll try and get one this weekend.

It's ok for me : I take it.
I need a few pics from the inside too.

edit : maybe Bela is the first on the list, but he doesn't said "I take the cab". Well, I'm waiting the pics.

He is still the first to be served, as he was the first to ask for pics.

No really : the request for pictures is not like taking the cab.

Nevertheless, Michael, that's ok for me, we are all gentlemen here  :).

I haven't forgotten you guys for the pics. A friend has the key to the storage where that game is located and I haven't been able to contact him yet.

Unless he's left the country with it, I should have something soon :)

Liquidx, I just found 2 pictures from the pickup day on my hard drive... if it helps with the sale.
Good luck, it's a really cool cab.

Thanks,

I actually have an offer but it's from someone who wants to mame it and I really don't want that to happen.  Even if I'm getting rid of it, I have principles :)

Ok, so the guy who is supposed to buy this keeps leading me on and promising pickup shortly.

I've reached my limit so it's back on the market. Ignore my initial price, make me an offer, I need the space.
