MadDog McCree! A reboot of the game in arcade?  Of maybe that 'COWBOY LEGEND' cabinet is just a concept for now? Interesting...

That looks like the Palomino horse from C&A !

The Palomino horse at C&A was the equivalent of the Bimbo Box at V&D in Holland in the 70's and 80s.
EVERY kid in Holland was amazed by the Bimbo Box and EVERY kid in Holland did at least one round on the Palomino !  ;D ;D

I think the Palomino can still be found at some C&A's (sorry, very rarely come there ;)) (this is contrast to the Bimbo Boxes at V&D....if only they'd known how much they are worth today ;)

By the way......who said the arcade video game was dead ? It isn't. We are just living in the wrong place ;)
