Title: Gauging interest: Qix, Wheels II, Space Panic
Post by: Laschek on December 06, 2011, 01:15:30 PM
My buddy and I might get rid of a few cabs. No idea about prices, so I post this to maybe get a clue and see if there is any interest at all. So no photos at the moment, I am trying to take some ASAP.

-Qix: european version, complete and in pretty good cosmetical shape, game not working, monitor not working, comes with a complete extra boardset (can't tell from the top of my head if the boards have acid damage, gotta check). SOLD

-Wheels II: complete and in ok shape, worked when plugged in the last time some years ago, have to check if it still works, the original bezel is missing and was replaced (not by us) with a green one, so I guess this makes it the only black&green arcade game  ;D SOLD

-Space Panic: original board missing found untested original board, original marquee missing (was replaced by plain black one), has been converted to Moon Patrol (I think, no PCB included). Might be a good basis for an original restoration.

So if anyone is interested or has a hint on prices, LMK.

Qix is sold.

Space Panic: I found an original game PCB for it (untested)!
Here are some pics:

Et voilà some pics of Wheels II:

Here is pic with the bezel removed. As mentioned before the original one is missing and was replaced with a generic one and a green translucent overlay. There are lightbulbs left and right of the monitor in those white panels which I guess backlit some graphics on the original bezel:

Look where it originally came from (coin mechs are still set to dutch currency):

Hah, and they are still in business:

http://www.amuce.nl/

Drop them a mail, maybe they get sentimental and want to buy it back ;)

I love that Space Panic art for some weird reason...it's pretty freaky and sure would have impressed me as a kid...
A two player races is always cool, hope someone saves it...

Hahah, yeah I just edited my posting suggesting that. Well why not ? At least send them the pics they might find it funny at very least....

It's a pretty weird surname by the way, definitely not a common Dutch surname.

OMG, I can't believe I forgot to mention that the monitor chassis is missing! SORRY!!!!  :oops: :oops: :oops:
(Too bad you can't edit your posts after a while, unlimited editing would be a great idea at least for the "Business" area IMO  ;))

If you're still intersted, I am located near the town of Kaiserslautern.


Title: Re: Gauging interest: Qix, Wheels II, Space Panic
Post by: zapposh on January 19, 2012, 09:25:14 AM
Kaiserlautern would be far if not combined with other things, so I'll pass if someone else wants to buy the cab.

But I'm in negotiation with a guy in Stuttgart for some pinball-stuff, and if it works out, it will take me right through Kaiserslautern on my way there. In that case I would contact you to see if we could work something out for the Space Panic (I love the artwork on it and would be a nice baby to restore).

What I forgot to mention is that this was the second game I played at the time on a monochrome Apple II (the first was Space Invaders), and it was called Apple Panic. Was absolutely fascinated by it at the time. Never got very far, but it was addictive anyway.
So I am of course attracted sentimentally to Space Panic.

I had great memories on Space Panic. It was in a local pub, but it was -as far as I remember- in a generic cabinet... Anyway, I'm really in love with that cabinet nd the game... but no! No no no ... I must resist  :oops:
Zapposh, for the love of God, go and take it before I ask shipping cost for that one  :-X

very easy: sell me that rolling thunder and throw out the hercules pinball, then you have more space than you need! ;D

Pfff....throwing out a Hercules pinball would gain just as much space as almost my entire game room ;) ;) ;)

Why not donate it to ACAM (FunSpot) ?  They have enough room and after all, it is nothing more than an interesting Atari relict for a museum.....

I had the "pleasure" of playing it once and man.............does it suck !

There is also no need to worry about shipping costs, if you remove the legs and hang an outboard motor on it you can simply plunge it in the Northsea and cross the Atlantic with it ! Big enough and lot's of wood to keep it drifting....


 ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

(Yes....it is as slow as you see on this video...it is not slowed down.......you can flip the ball and walk over to the bar, order a beer, drink it, walk back and there you are for your next shot !

It MAY prove to be popular in elderly homes in about 30 years.....plenty of time to respond to anything going on.....:P

Yup, equally exciting !!

I bet this was designed so that the Atari employees who were high on marihuana or whatever on their friday afternoon party's STILL had enough reflexes to score great..... ;D ;D ;D

Don't you agree it would make a great boat ?

Unfortunately I can't get rid of the Hercules because I converted it to a flat and currently there is a family with four kids living in it!

And I can't sell the Rolling Thunder either: it has speech, so sometimes, when I feel lonely, I power it up and talk to it!
