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

[baritonomarchetto]

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...

[Bods]

Yep, Mint Afterburner under

Here are some pics 

Even the Licence sticker on screen bezel has afterburner under label for thunderblade

[baritonomarchetto]

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?

[Bods]

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
