Have to sit this "New" KOD next to the ORIGINAL EM that you currently have in the showroom.  Would be a good comparison between the OLD and NEW.

I'll reserve my opinion until I play a remade machine - But initially they were going to use the DMD style Cabinet. I LOVE the original "old style" cabinets. The years of "Pinnie Parlor Smell" and abuse can't be reproduced. Maybe that's a good thing ?

I really respect the guys for making this machine - a huge effort.

I'd also like to see a comparison photo. My mate's old man had one of these back when i was in primary school (early 80's), i used to play it a lot. I was into the newer machines at the time, cause i was a kid, but, i loved playing it. I could happily live with one *%*. I'm sure i would appreciate this game more now than what i did back then.

Are the prices quoted USD or is that landed in Australia in AUD?

Hopefully there is enough interest worldwide in this one to remake some other titles.
