# RoadTrip : Star Wars Trilogy Arcade #

[DarthNuno]

OK... I was looking for 'it' since a while  

Since my last London trip where I used to play the game, I was strongly looking to buy one...

Regarding the London trip...





... and I finally found one in france, for a reasonable price, regarding the year of that game and its great general condition  

Well, here we go with the biggest road trip I ever done (even bigger than the roadtrip done in UK to bring back Star Wars cockpit & Dragon's Lair II)  

Thursday evening : I rent this  



Huge 'car' for an huge game  



... It would be great to own one...



Friday - 03h00am

Wake up !

Everything is ready



Ok    So let's pick up my -official roadtrip counterpart-  "Burt"    

Let's check the counter before to go... 'coz we'll beat a record today  



...at the french border...



...fuel... fuel...  



...a solution to drive without sleeping ...      



... so many hours of driving... and still not at location  




Finally, we arrive at 11h30 at Nantes, very tired & hungry
 

So after quicly meet the seller, and check the game, we decided to go to unch before loading the game and return...

This is Burt, tired...    



And I...

 



... very good restaurent by the way  

Ok, go back to the seller... okey, everything is fine... I check once again the game : Test Mode, CRT, sounds, input... ok  

Time to load  



...stickers are nice...



...huge marquee... more than 50cm high...




...load...



... carefull, carefull...



...very heavy...



1, 2,3 ... 4 guys to do the job  



...fixing the retroprojector...



... now, take care about the 'control panel / cockpit'  



...protecting the parts...



... fixing the parts...



...close to the end...  



"Photograph Memory"  



... and the worst moment...     ... giving the money  :cry:    



Ok, time to go... so many km to drive...  



...strange  drinks  in france...  



...stuck Oh no  



No... just an alert... tjhe way is clear... we can drive  



...close to the Belgian border... yes  



... and he we are... at the Nuno's Lair  

It's 22h30 pm... to late for unloading the game... We'll do that tomorow...

OK, now stat    :



  61205 - 59684 = 1.521 km done  

  since 04h30 am to 22h30 pm = 18h30 on roadtrip

OK, so the day afer in the morning...

  Works on the road behind my house    Impossible to unload directly behind the gaming room  



...we can't use retroprojector's wheels... the way to the Nuno's lair is too bad :cry:  



...it's a true monster... hopefully, the door is big enough  



...let's continue with the panel / cockpit...



...just remove the coins box, and we can enter it into the lair  

Ok, so let's quickly plug the thing... I wanna see if everything is fine after that roadtrip  

...a lot of molex to plug...



... the coins box ...



...power on    



Ok now I've to found a good location into the gaming room for a such monster  

After trying different location, I choose to remove the topper, and fix the game like this :








 

[DarthNuno]

Last week, before breaking my shoulder        , I put back the topper, because... that game without that so wonderfull (abnd huge) topper wasn't complete....

[DarthNuno]

Hehe, would love to own an SW like this one day..
Bruno - you look so young!! 

Done this one seven years ago... time flies 
I've sold that SWTA last year... I would prefer to own the upright version if you ask me, same great game but much smaller in size
