i think beside his own forum, klov is the only arcade related forum he has not been banned yet..



this KLOV-thread freaks me out. it is amazing that people like him exist. :D
from a business point of view it is completely my fault if something happens to an item while shipping it to my customer.
but hey... he is not in this for the business. :D lol
Looking for Dragons Lair 1 or 2, Space Ace, Double Dragon, Robotron and yeah... a Shinobi would be cool, too!

so...
I didn't forgot to update you about this project.
You know I had some problems in this period so I suspended most of my hobbies...

I had no news about Rock-Ola parts on the other hand I found some cine parts.

This is the situation now.

PARTS

- Control Panel: YES I HAVE, CINE VERSION
- Marquee: YES I HAVE, CINE VERSION
- Bezel: NO I HAVEN'T, WTB ORIGINAL BEZEL OR, IF AVAILABLE, A FILE TO PRINT IT ON MY OWN
- Monitor Overlay: NO I HAVEN'T, WTB ORIGINAL OVERLAY OR, IF AVAILABLE, A FILE TO PRINT IT ON MY OWN
- Boardset: YES, I HAVE
- Monitor: I have but a new one is better*
- Power Brick: NO I HAVEN'T. I have a compatible power brick found in a RIP OFF bootleg I parted some years ago. It's a good start but if someone has one...

*"a new one is better" means I have some projects open.
- Star Castle (it should be compete)
- Armor Attack (this project)
- Space Wars (picked up from Bruno last year)

Space Wars hasn't a monitor inside and collecting all spare parts I have in my  garage I can assemble only one monitor (mainly I miss a second deflection yoke).

One solution could be to sacrifice my Space Wars Italian version ( http://www.vernimark.com/?cat=7 ) but it's a pity.

If somebody can provide scans, i am Always prepared to help you out with vectoring.

the CP i did for Speleo, maybe he can scan the parts you need ?

EDIT:
reading the thread again, Speleo said he will be happy to do, but i think he has been busy with other things  ;)

Offer still stands ofcourse  8)

Do you know if a TV overlay scan exists?

Wow, I'll check with my graphic designer if the resolution is high enough, I hope so and, after a first glance, as well... THANK YOU!!

That's the wrong one, that's for the original Cinematronics cab.

The Rock-ola had a different, much more plain bezel, just some lines:

The one on Speleo_DE's machine is not the correct one either, it's from another Cinematronics game IIRC.
I wonder if that was a factory thing though....wouldn't surprise me if they didn't have their own bezel (yet or anymore) and put one they had lying around instead....

AHA ! That is Exactly the same one as on Speleo's machine:

https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=2606.0

Can't be coincidence. I already thought so....factory thing.....the Belgian operator where I found it usually never changed anything on the cabs....

So....pretty safe to conclude that this is the one Rock-ola installed......unless, in some magical way, that very machine found in the UK ended up in the Belgian warehouse....but I guess that didn't happen...right ?

Yep. I already have a CP and Marquee from a cine version. I was thinking to start the resto with cine parts that are more easy to find.
Then I can take time to look for rock ola parts :D

The bezel from star castle looks like the same to me on speleo's machine.
