Not asking for much am I? Hehe

I have an original Falcon pcb ( and a couple of clones). Here in Derby, England and most of the 80s arcades I used to play had Crazy Kong  and only played Donkey a few times.
I have just a couple of cabs at the moment and swap my games around.. Kong, Mr Do! Etc but I want to make a cab dedicated to my Crazy Kong pcb... I would love to make it into a Crazy Kong but I see more DK parts on eBay USA... Does any one have marquee, Bezel & CP or part of these that I could buy??

thanks so much Mike K

You guys really are inspiring with your dedication to keeping the old games alive, I don't post often but stop by most days. I'm 43 so perfect age for all this.

Hi.

I have a Crazy Kong Bezel with some flaws.....but wait: what kind of cab do you have? My bezel is for the Zaccaria-cabs.

CPO and Marquee are available as great reproductions from Etienne here in the forum (EtienneMcGuyver) !! :)


I guess you know the Jamma+ forum !?

Hi Luigi,
I would be interested in your bezel I don't mind a few flaws, do you have a pic please?
The cab I'm getting has similar dimensions to the Zac I believe

I haven't been on Jamma+ for a while thanks ill take a look!

I have seen Etiennes reproductions - he did a Moon Cresta instruction card for me Amazing work!

Does Etienne print them onto vinyl / onto plastic as well?

Thanks again my friend

Luigi

Unforuntateley my old bezel has serious flaws...it is something you put on the cab if you have nothing else  ;D

Nevertheless, I will take a photo and you can judge if you want it or not.

Maybe Thorsten Thome still has a CK-bezel...they are NOS!!

Hi Mike,

Happy you liked your Moon cresta repro  ;)

I do have a plexi contact and a printer that can print on vinyl

there was a post some time ago from Ckong about printing straight to plexi, i don't know that turned out.

Hey Gents, Thanks for your replies!

I'm currently camping in Cornwall with my good lady, in our tent checking out the Internet  :-X

Luigi thanks I will look forward to your pic when you have time - It can only improve things...

Etienne, Yes I got them printed and they looked great.. After you went to all the trouble and time I gave some money to charity ( I do it sometimes when someone gives out a favour ;) The Moon Cresta table top actually also went to charity and placed in a retro type pub and makes them extra money for good causes. So you helped raise money here in the UK

Brilliant thanks I am sure I will be making a Kong order  :lol:

Again thanks i am most grateful

If you go for the zacc style, i have made the marquee and CP in vector format, and i would suggest to print it like we did on the cp's and bezel for Bela's Galaxian, and dont use plexi for the marquee.

I am sure there is a place where you are that can deliver you a piece of glass for the marquee instead of the plexi.

Galaxian bezel part : https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=2109.msg26597#msg26597

Plexi for the CP: https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=2958.0

CP vector : https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=2271.0

CK Marquee : https://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=4070.0

Happy reading  ;)

Edit:  i may have a blank plexi CP here, need to check that...
if not, i believe that Bencao74 here on the forums can also deliver plexi lasercutted, and i remember it could be cheaper than my plexi guy.
shipping probably makes it the same cost at the end, but its worth to check that if i dont have the blank plexi.

let me first check what i got here  ;)

Hey Etienne,
Hello and thanks for the links they were great! I will be going Zacc style - unsure if I can get a proper one but I will work on it :D

I can glass done over here so that's not a problem.

If you are able to find the plexi that would be great and I can get all the bits from you.. Any luck ?
If not I will get the rest from you and speak to Bencao74 maybe..
Thanks again I know your a busy man I am very grateful  :lol:

This site and Derby County FC ( have to support your local team ;) and my favs...  The road trips are such a laugh    :D

I have a complete DK control panel I might be willing to let go. It has an eight ball action CPO but it's all there. Not sure if shipping from the USA would make it all that feasible for you.

Hey John,
Well that could certainly go on another project, yeh it is quite pricey to get items from the US... My work railway stampers were around $40 postage but perhaps if you have a price on the panel you could let me know..

And thanks I knew of you because I've seen some of your posts :D
