Tsk tsk tsk, not even the buttons are correct, and still he wants the tip of the space shuttle for it!

Actually, I think those ARE the correct buttons for the Euro Joust.
Mine are very similar, only colors differ:

I once found a bunch of these for sale somewhere but dont remember...

The price is nuts but he does indicate he is willing to accept lower offers. Also Joust iS still pretty rare here.
I wish I had that marquee !!
Then again, on this one the bezel is missing....

I have an original Joust marquee, what size do you need?
I'm not sure if mine is for the Euro or for the USA cab.

Take a look at the side art, wasn't the joust a robotron before?

@Chris:What is THAT ?

@Pieter:Yeah indeed I managed to miss that it was a Robotron!!
.o well, US Joust stencils fit nicely ;)

@Béla: the Euro marquee is 14.5 x 57.5cm.

Typical for the Euro marquee is that it ha much more "fire" on the left and right side.

Compare: Euro:

Sidearts look definitely weird ...

definitely a euro robotron cab before it got converted to joust. just compare the art (and a silver coin door) :arrow:



i'm pretty sure those joust stickers on the sides can simply be pulled off, revealing 2084 underneath! i wonder if this could be converted back ...

Forget it. None of the artwork is available.

By the way....do we think that Williams issued conversion kits for Robotron to Joust ? That side art looks like a sticker covering the 2084 letters. The font is the same as the marquee so this doesnt look like an average operators conversion. OR it could be a factory conversion.....

i never said i wanted to do it ;). way too expensive, too much work and - as you've pointed out - artwork not available!

Archer has the artwork - he made Euro Robotron CPO's and has the bezel and marquee artfiles.
