'Business' Area : Buy/Sell/Trade / Wanted Taito SI U/R Pt2 parts needed
« Last post by ronnie dent on June 09, 2025, 11:24:24 AM »
A bit of a long shot but worth the ask! I bought the above with lots of bits missing, the chap asures me he has the bits but it's been 3 weeks! So just in case I'm putting the feelers out

Top marquee
screen glass
Control panel
Coin door
Back door

So not much really! I know repro screen glass and CPO is available but would rather have genuine bits if poss?Also any links to repro parts?

Thanks in anticipation !

Pics for reference

Thanks Ronnie

Looks really nice, great job!

Thanks Bela :spaceace:

Back on this broken monitor bezel :



In addition to the broken inner corners, it's mainly this broken/missing side that bothers me the most  :-[  :arrow:



Well, for now, I still hope to find a replacement bezel, so I won?t do anything except a little cleaning...





...If I still can't find another one, I'll try to tinker with it a bit to hide the issues  :-\

Update on the monitor's protective glass, which was missing.
I just received it after three weeks of waiting. It's tempered glass that can't be cut on-site by the store.
This type of cutting requires a special process, hence the waiting time



The price is special as well: 126 Euro.  ???
I'm attaching the invoice to keep a record of the cutting dimensions  :arrow:



Once installed, it's perfect...phew! :P  At this price, it's better not to make a mistake with the dimensions!



The small logo certifying that it is indeed tempered glass.  :arrow:

Think back to the catastrophic state of the metal surfaces   ???  :arrow:





We're in a better place now  :-*  :arrow:

Hello Brian
Glad to see you still drop by from time to time, but sad to hear that you're dealing with health issues. :-\ I hope things improve soon.
As for the collection, it's pretty much the same here. Apart from us, it's hard for a third party to properly assess the value of our collectibles, especially our cels, which are worth a lot. It's definitely wise to be proactive.
Regarding the Arcade1Up, if I do get it, it will be purely for the collection because, of course, nothing beats the Dragon's Lair experience on its dedicated cabinet. But it's true that this Arcade1Up version seems to be slowly gaining value...

Dragon's Lair / Space Ace / Re: Dragon's Lair Trading Cards by Cardsmiths
« Last post by DarthNuno on June 01, 2025, 09:20:26 AM »
I find the idea of these cards interesting, but rather surprising, as we can't really say that in 2025 there's still mainstream hype for a game dating back to 1983. ::)
I agree with you, it probably won't be a great investment for the future (we're not talking about Pokemon here  ;D ), but still, the item is fun and unexpected... and having a few in the collection won't break the bank!  8)

I have 1 full box unopened of 12 packs..

I got a full standard set (except 22. I have a 22 but not the standard card. One holo and one gemstone). Includes death and poster cards.

I have 2 signed cards. Palmory and Goldman.

I have a feeling that they are not really going to be worth anything.

I've keep tabs on here, just really haven't had too much to say. I see you on FB and am on your page.

For insurance purposes, I took a quick picture of all my cels. I still have to do all the odd collectables. The pics aren't that good but it is pretty complete. I'll post them when I get time.

Since I have had so many health issues, I have been considering selling my whole collection. I will probably have Heritage Auctions handle it when I decide to do it. If I pass, my wife won't have a clue what it is worth or what to do with it. I think my goal is to get it all together and cataloged and then auction it in about 5 years.

The A1up DL isnt bad. The sound is a little off. I never thought I would own a real DL. I started with a A1up asteroids that I converted into a skinned Dragons Lair mame machine. Then A1up came out so I got that and then I got a real one finally. I paid $500 for the A1up DL and ended up getting a real one for $1700. I am probably going to see if I can sell the A1up since they are selling for 1k now.
