the vid was done about 3 days after the party started , when most cabs have been trashed , gutted or taken . dunno how many have been there some weeks or months ago . maybe 100-200 ?! hard to tell . its frustrating to stand by watching a bunch of idiots trashing stuff worth thousends of eus for maybe 50 eu scrap metal reward .

to make things worse i ve unburried an old vid taken on the location some years ago .. arcade is a one way trip leading into madness ..

or if u prefer 480 p

Why not upload the 480P version to YouTube ?

the german community is constantly traveling to the storage to save what is left. there are still a hell of a lot of shells in there. jochen and the guys from neustadt called me a few hours ago. let's see what the are able to save.

If they can save the two Universal shells, I'd be happy to buy them; I can always use empty shells for my Universal collection

Cheers,
Marco

I really liked the video of how it was.  Looks like an amazing arcade, and such a shame it is now a pile of rubbish.  Is it possible to upload the video with the actual sound from the arcade rather than music?

It is a shot in the dark but would there be a gaelco speed up 2 player be around.
I only need the middle between the 2 cabs.
I don't care if it is broken or beaten up.
On the video i see only 1 cab maybe there is a second one somewhere.

It might be helpful to post a picture of what exactly you need ;)

There is a guy in the UK trying to restore a Taito Field Goal upright but gave up because he couldn't find the marque, spinner & board set. There is a side view of a cab in the "wreck" video (a classic Taito/Taitronics with an American football player on the side). If you can strip the parts off it you'll likely save another cab...

If I go there a 2nd time I will pull out at least the bezel and the controlpanel of that Field Goal-cab. They're both in great shape and I would be happy if I could help to save a machine :)  Unfortunateley no PCBs or marquee....maybe one of the other guys did take it from there and we can get it as well.


edit: I cannot remember such a cab like Time Traveler...sorry :(

Folks, please post pictures or at least link to pictures so we know what we are supposed to find  :-\

This one?



I cannot remember that, too. Maybe other people already pulled it.


Ol, where did you spot that Time Traveler? Picture or video with time, please.  There is so much stuff and rubbish and there is no light so it's really a PITA to find stuff...even if you have no clue where to look.

Hi!

The Time Traveller is in this video, which shows the place with people in playing the games and having a good time:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=xnkyA3yrUYY

Time Traveller flyer: http://flyers.arcade-museum.com/?page=thumbs&db=videodb&id=1213


The Grand Champion cockpit is laying on it's back - the bezel looks complete and not smashed. Flyer:

http://flyers.arcade-museum.com/?page=thumbs&db=videodb&id=3428


If you can help with any information or parts that would be FANTASTIC!!!

And where did you see the Grand Champion.....pic or video?

I will do my very best but I really doubt that anything is still on the same place like in this video ;)

I think I got it in the video. The cab on the right. AFAIR it wasn't there anymore on Friday....or at least not at this place. I will see if I can find it.

Does somebody know the driving cab on the left? This gone as well but I could save the bezel.
