I found this Astro Battle cab once and it came with 2 extra PCBs.

I don't have the cab anymore but still got one of the PCBs, if ever you need an extra one :)

Hi boys I get a lot of Sidam pcb so me and some others Italian collectors are writing down documentation on them.

Good Idea:
Collect many documentation on Sidam and elaborate it for retrace the story of this Italian factory!

It's possible, cause I think Sidam was the second Italian's videogame brand for material availability...
... I'd like a research about Model Racing Factory too :roll:

OT:
one revision about this: (http://www.retrocampus.com/2015/12/14/quelli-che-i-videogiochi-12-e-13-dicembre-2015/)

it's not "Space Invader (1978)" that Cab (and I hope the game inside) but "Space Invader Part II (1980)"

...I hope this can help..
