So I will do the task, as everybody know I have two Atari Space Ace machines and hopfully one of the 4 sidearts will be in good shape or I have to paste the scans together. The CPO will be tuff to scan though,it is angled...from what I remember.
I have a dream....that one day....all members of forum are the same....no matter how long ago they have joined, how many games they own or how many posts they wrote ;)

Hi everyone, I realize this is an old thread but desperate calls for desperate measures :)

I am currently restoring an original Dragon's lair. I couldnt find any places that are still selling the reproduction control panel. Even quarter arcades no longer carries them.
I did some searches and found this thread online.

Would anyone still happen to have the raw scans that were originally shared?
I am looking to make a version without the holes where the button goes, it makes the installation easier that way.

thanks

Galloping ghost sells them without the holes. I purchased one, but I wasn't fully satisfied with the quality. I also have a better reproduction which I bought maybe 8-9 years ago, but without holes. I will sell them, if anyone needs them.

The version from Galloping Ghost has issues, if you look closely on the left and right edge, it looks like they used the commonly available image from ArcadeArtwork.org and placed the one available here underneath. You can see that the resolution and details don't match on the side, especially on the left. You can see the issue here very well:

So I actually ended up painting the holes with my Cintiq. Took me several hours but the result is great.
I am also able to print copies with polycarbonate laminate. Just PM me if you need it.


That looks beautiful! Well done!  :spaceace:
Is there any chance that you could share your file without holes? It would be very convenient and fast for me to have it printed and laminated locally. I could pay you a little for your work if needed.  :)

Here is my file that have the button holes filled up, colors matched and the scan was completely cleaned up.
The fitment is perfect too, worked like a charm on my own cabinet.  Enjoy!

That's really cool, thanks for sharing this.  :spaceace:

At last! The pictures show pre cut holes, but it's not the case if I read this : "Note that we elected to NOT have the holes die cut with this piece as we've had a mixed response when surveying collectors about die cutting in this instance."

If the holes are pre cut or not, the fact they left the black holes where the buttons are going is a very bad design choice. It doesn't leave much room for possible adjustment when installing the CPO.

The one I shared have no holes at all.
