Title: Wanted: TOOBIN'
Post by: Superully on May 20, 2009, 08:22:56 PM
I remember playing this in the Belgium De Vosemeeren Centre Parcs over and over again in the 90s. What a fun game, especially if two play simultaneous! Therefore:

WANTED: TOOBIN' ARCADE CABINET

Are you bored of that game and want to sell it? Do you know anyone who might be willing to let go of it? Then I'm the person to contact  :)

Hey ully , i guess you already saw that they also have a bubble bobble board there for € 30,-
i don't know if you still need one for your bubble bobble project?

the add says "bobble bobble" and the screenshot too, i guess thats a mistake, or not , anyway they also say this about the screenshot "Pictures shown are not from the actual product." so maybe its a original board.

As mentioned it says Bobble Bobble, that's a bootleg if ever saw one. A working original, they would be asking a hellava lot more than 30.

I hate that too when people advertise stuff for sale and don't reply to their mails >:( When they're too lazy to reply to their mails they should provide their phone number instead of their email address.

UPDATE  ;D

he's neither dead nor a jackass, he simply changed his email address and forgot to change the forum settings  >:(

anyway, i've made contact with him trying to figure out a deal. the game is working, but there are some damages to the cabinet, the side side of the control panel is almost broken of und need to be fixed desperately, the sidearts have some damages, one of the gators is missing, but the waterfall is working - YEAH!!!

Waterfall??? What the f*** is he talking about? In case you haven't seen that INCREDIBLE marquee effect you can check it out here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1LW0jWvDg8 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M1LW0jWvDg8)

Well, let's see if we can come to an agreement. I will keep you posted!

Yeah, one minor problem. They cost lots of money instead of earning lots of money ;)
