I like how you placed the two PCB's (TB and ABII) one over the other: neat and clean. I will do the same if i will find out a spare PCB.

I have same machine

It is just a Afterburner Machine with the Thunderblade Kit. I like TB as well, but I also wanted to use it for AfterBurner, and the silly sticker covers the Lock-On, so I pulled off the Artwork and changed back to AB

Artwork was Mint undernearth

Are you saying that underneath the sidearts there is a mint AB artwork? Wow!
But let me say that this could not be a "regular" kit, not something sold as kit to operators at least: it's PERFECTLY applied and a regular operator would not apply it like that. (I would expect at least some misalignment, you know what i mean?) My opinion is that it was applied on AB machines from SEGA.

Anyhow, sadly we have only one left at this point if you removed the full kit...

Wow!

You are lucky: mine has not the original seal label, lost from the previous owner. What about the "marquee" sticker? Is there a afterburner sticker under the TB one?

I am glad you said about Marquee sticker

Totally forgot about that, no there isn't one of those, the only bit missing

I need to see if MuddyMusic on other Forums has that part to print out, he's done the full side art for after burner :)

Can't remember at the moment what I did with that Thunderblade Licence, If I find it sometime I would be happy to send it to you :)
