Looking for the marquee (either just the art or the entire marquee assembly with the art applied) and the CPO (again, either just the art or the entire panel with the art already applied) for an Irish cabinet Millipede.
I'm having no luck here in the U.S. finding these; maybe a different story for you folks there in Europe? I promise to overpay for them. :)

Try asking on UKVAC also, http://www.ukvac.com/ (http://www.ukvac.com/), as there are folks who've done Euro artwork repro's for Atari cabs before.
Regards,
Paul.

maybe this helps ?

Hi guys,
I too have this cabinet here with very very poor art on the control panel and no marquee and would love the art. In the 4 years I have owned this shell i have never seen it available. The links you kindly provided are for the USA version of the cab which is very different.
Maybe if we can get a scan we can club together and get them printed ?
Best Regards,
Kev,

I know a man who has the cab (with the original marquee and side art), but don't be in a hurry ;).

I'd certainly be in for that.
I grabbed the files Etienne linked to - I could certainly reconfigure Zorg's US-upright CPO file to fit to the Irish panel, and could finish vectoring the work-in-progress marquee art found there and then resize/configure that to fit to the Irish marquee layout, but of course those wouldn't be accurate reproductions of the original Irish versions. My machine has no marquee art or CPO art so I have nothing on-hand to follow - "reproductions" from the US art certainly would look good (and be better than my no-art) but wouldn't be preferred.
Perhaps jcp will give us some more details regarding the "man who has a cab". :)

About the man ;D : you can look at this french topic thread, here (http://www.gamoover.net/Forums/index.php?topic=24052.msg365682;topicseen#msg365682).

Awesome cab, is it the same shape as time pilot?
Yup, and also the same as Gravitar and Popeye.

?? - pics... KLOV needs them ;)

For the Gravitar you'll have to ask Alpha1. Come to think of it Dig Dug is in the same cab too, and there are probably a couple more.
Oh, and here's Popeye. Yes, Atari Popeye with a HUGE Nintendo brand on there too....love it !

I don't believe anyone has actually seen one for real so, this might be vapor ware. If not, when you find one, you MUST hand it over to me right away ! ;D ;D ;D

I´m sure theres at least one! - the one on the flyer ;D
...... good luck prying it out of Alpha1/mclemore´s hands! ;D ;D ;D
-
Does Alpha1 have a Popeye Atari....man is my memory really running back so much ??
Alpha1 does have Gravi and Dig Dug.
Another dark corner in my mind says there's also a Tempest in this cab...but you can't trust my memory for sure ! :)
-
Actually, i have no idea if Alpha1 have a popeye in this cab, but that said - it would have been a good guess!
-
Hi,
I don't have the Popeye. I have spoken to 3 or 4 people in the UK who remember playing the Atari version cabinet so it DID exist.
The only Atari cabs I have seen in this shape in real life are: Millipede and Time Pilot. If you look at the Atari Liberator manual you will see a diagram that shows this cabinet for this game also - no one has ever seen one though.
I had 2 Euro Millipedes that were missing various parts and sold them on. I do have a complete working Time Pilot.
Gravitar is a different cabinet shape for the Euro versions. This shape was for the following games: Gravitar, Black Widow, Dig Dug, Kangaroo, Fast Freddie. I have ALL of them :spaceace:
I would love an Atari Popeye!!!
-
Since you've got all those others already, the Atari Popeye will still have to go to me, sorry !
;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D
