It was so funny how this went.......I had been doing my usual nagging about a certain grail to a certain Eurocade crew member all day......to little avail....

Then after we had just loaded up the very last cab, as if lightnig struck and within the wink of an eye, the MP deal happened....I will never forget the look in Robin's eyes though when Gyruss offered the MP for sale to Robin......it was the perfect mix of total bewilderment, disbelief, hope and just a little sniff of doubt if he would do it or not. All it took to seal the deal was us mentioning to Robin that there was still one spot for a game in the van and that it could be in his home within 2 hours :)

Yep, true story.   ;D

And don't give up nagging, you may never know if one day I have a weak moment and the Gravi heads to 010.

I saw the MP when I was getting the PP cockpit from Pieter. Cab is in absolute great condition. Congrats!

Great cab...IMHO it looks like a cab from the 80s should like like these days....with scratches and bumps!!  :)

Mmmmm, I've seen it of course (hey I took the pic) and personally this one would trip my "must restore artwork" scale, but that's just me. I don't mind some scratches and bumps for sure, but like the Ms.Pac it was too far gone for me. If I look at my Ms.Pac now, I do not regret restoring it one moment...

Are there stencils for MP ?
