is the canyon bomber still for sale?

yep.

[Superully]

cool!!! thx a lot for all those pics (and the video), etienne. looks like you guys grabbed a looot of games (and other stuff). can't remember the canyon bomber being there the last time, that's a very special cabinet and a nice old b/w game. someone needs to rescue it

oh, and what game has this amazing artwork?

[level42]

Jeez, after this long day of dragging cabs, helping people, etc.etc. I still managed to got to a nice party at the music club, dance with a hot lady, and had quite some beer....

GREAT pics ETienne Especially because I totally would not picture a lot of what you did picture....excellent t see now.

Ully that BRILLIANT side art is a Caterpillar by Olympia. It's a Centipede bootleg,and I too love that artwork...it now has a joystick panel. I am note sure if Caterpillar supported a trackball.
Although not many people know, Atari's centipede ALSO supports joystick control...

It's still at the warehouse like canyon bomber which deserves to be rescued for that BEAUTIFUL artwork alone !! It's funny the guy in the pplane is the same as the guy in the Beetle on the Super Bug...


As you can see on the pics I took good safety precautions....

What a great day fr European arcade collecting !!!!

that sideart is more than brilliant, i'm thrilled. fortunately, i already have a centipede . however, judging from some older pics, it seems as if the control panel is not original anymore! did you guys check whether the pcb was inside?

agreed, wonderful art and a very special cabinet. some question as above: did you check for the pcb? i wonder why noone grabbed this ... too expensive?

speaking of which: you said the prices were higher than the last time. how much did he ask for the taito cabs for example?

did you guys grab anything else? some nice pcbs or monitors?

[level42]

The Taito's were 50 euro without a PCB inside as promised. Also the PD was 100 as promised. So if you then compare Super bug (three of the four were complete, the best one is on it's way to hatster) for 125 that is pretty steep. But we simply value the games differently I guess.

[level42]

I didn't check both machines for PCBs. I think someone said there was one in the Canyon Bomber. Since nobody was interested in the caterpillar I guess no one checked...

I think he asked 125 for the canyon bomber.... not sure.

[Superully]

has someone grabbed the puckman, the ricochet or the exidy cabs?

[hatster]

hey guys,

daves back tonight, but just wanted to say thanks to everyone for helping him load the beast, and thanks to Andre for sharing the place.

Also see a spanish machine there "la pinata" with a sombrero, etc.  Is this still there ? did anyone take a closer look at it ? never seen one before, looks very interesting !

Cheers,
