There's a custom 007 on EBay with a starting bid of $6250.

thanks found it,

looks good but believe very over priced and the custom cab art doesn't blend around from the sides to the front

way past my possible budget

I was blown away by the time and effort that went into that machine. Is it a popular enough game to command that high price though? Mightn't find a quick buyer, but there could be that one James Bond fan lurking out there that is after a centrepiece for their bar or cinema room. Gave me an idea if I found an old beat up game that was deserving of custom decals. Could be a cool project I reckon.

Guy must've been high as a kite when dreaming up that price. Almost worth referring to the authorities.

Capital has one for around the $4.6k and been there for a while.

Agree with you that alot of effort went into it and it has captured Bond in a modern way using photoshop but it now it is non original and unless a die hard bond fan buys it, it isn't worth that much - fine if you do it for the challenge and fun but doubt it will return the investment. I hope he gets it but doubt it.

Yeah, I tried not to be too negative about it, but questioning the worth....as well as the Judge Dredd with admitted cabinet fade for $6800. I was thinking of messaging the seller asking if they made a mistake with pricing. A secondhand Judge Dredd is now worth more than what I paid for a new in box AC/DC Pro???

Golden Eye is worth far less than 3 grand tops for a real nice one. IMO.

I have many Segas n played everyone, but Golden Eye was not a machine I would/wanted to add to my collection.
Very basic n not much on offer playwise IMO.
They usually don't sell quickly. I know Oscar had 2 machines apx 12 months ago.....

Best of luck with the search.

Goldeneye is Sega not DE.
