I hear you Nino but she plays pretty quick already! plus the white is a little too stark on this title.
Oh well here it goes. The reveal of the real dude.
I bought this 2 years ago for a bargain (well I thought so ) and so called shopped out , The DUDE played OK for about 2 months without me doing anything to it.
THEN bang the board goes with a U25 RAM failure, locked and stuffed. The techs over here scratched their heads and I thought, stuff this, bought a Rotten Dog board. Well, let me tell you that all was not well with that little number either, thank goodness there is a nice bloke, who I call my mate called Ant who also is a tech for Joe at amusements4kids.com.au helped me out and fixed it, as the supplier, which will remain unnamed in the US of A was not helpful at all. pfft.
As my mates and I started playing again I started adding LED's and it was not bad, but I said I can make it better. Thus the trial and error restore begins with some wins and some fails. The first main fail is parts and when you do find them, FxxK me drunk they are expensive i.e.; $125 for the BIG SHOT figure.
Condition report is
1.Backglass - 9/10 Absolute ball tearer of a theme and includes comedic cartoon expelling rules and some nice holograms which you will see later. Minor discoluring near the Alpha Numeric displays.
2.Cabinet - 7/10 Not too bad but very dirty, dull and in need of touch ups and new or repainted metal work.
3.Playfield - Had mylar protection on main play field but with some deep gauges in right orbit, bumper REFLEX entry and inserts were delaminating.
Fantastic art and colours on this gem of the era and pretty stoked to own it.
4. Play - 8/10 Easy to understand and hard to master. Incremental Jackpots which roll over from player to player, game to game which finally leads to
SSSSSSUUUUUPPPPEEEERRRRRR DDDDUUUUUUDDDDEEEEE, one of the nicest toys from the era which is the molecular mixmaster.
5. Sound - 10/10 this is the most memorable aspects of the machine. Very 80's surfy sort of cll outs like WOOOOOAAAHHH!!, catch some rays, your'e a Cool Dude
etc. You also won't forget the Gift of Gab sing along tunes. When I find a decent link to game play I will post it.
Enough garbage I will start with some pics for those who are interested. This is my first complete rip apart, do inserts, trial clear coat using KBS sprayed attempt.
