Picked one up too. My Tron's arriving next Saturday. Looking forward to that.

Don't think it needs a new handle but I'm hoarding it as a spare like many others are doing :)

Now, just have to wait for TR2N at the cinema and my fanboy wishes will be fulfilled.

Has anyone tried the game M.A.C.H. 3?
http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?game_id=8471

I have found it in a small warehouse, and I am wondering if it's worth picking up.


I used to play the cockpit version as a kid. Loved the whole experience with the real flight video and the pilots' radio conversations coming out of the speakers.
Of course it looks downright cheesy now but I'd still like one :)

When I played it as a kid in a converted Phoenix cabinet I remember the barrier/warp button would transport you to another part of the screen, a bit like the hyperspace button in Asteroids.

Hi liquidx,

Happy to see the Galaxy Ranger has a new home ... in Belgium too  :-*

If fact the seller didn't know if it was working or not... but it looks complete at first sight.
So the laser disc was missing ? I guess I still have a Galaxy Ranger laser disc in my 'arcade items spare room'  ;) Send me a message if you're interested about it  8)
Don't hesitate to create a new post about the restoration of your game... there are a lot of LD games fans here  :wink:

Belgium power  :-* :-* :-*

PCBs are all there but it was missing the centronics type cable between the PCB and the LD player, I've got the parts to build one now, just need to get the pinouts right. It was also missing the shelf that holds the player in place.

Shame about the disk, I have one coming from the states, If I'd know there was a local one... If it never shows up I'll get back to you.

As soon as I start back on the restoration I'll post a new thread here.

That Galaxy Ranger has also found a home in Belgium, mine :)

It's not working yet. I'm busy fixing the monitor and waiting for the disc to arrive from the US but I've cleaned it up:
