Robocop Arcade cabinets
-----------------------------------
I recently converted my Data East Bad Dudes cabinet with a Robocop 2 game kit.  So, I thought I'd share some pics now that I have both Robocop games in action.

Those are fucken beautiful man. Looking at that Robo 1 brings back some great memories of playing it when i was a kid.

Seeing Robo 1 and 2 next to each other is quite a sight.

The effect of seeing something like this can only be described by a pic.

So here it is.

Hahaha! That pic is hilarious! :D

Thanks for the nice comments.  I put many a quarter in the Robocop machine at our local mall back in the day, myself.

Well done! I'm getting my first cabinet tomorrow, my wife found a Robocop unit for my birthday. It's being delivered tomorrow and should be an interesting project. I know off hand it'll need some cosmetic work, the sound doesn't quite work (speaker has a low buzz), and for some odd reason Robo won't walk right (so far dubbed Bizzaro-Zoolander). The guy that sold it to us said he tried to replace the stick and it's guts but it still wasn't working. 

So I've got that going for me, haha. I'll probably be documenting the recovery either via pics and text or video. Can. Not. Wait. In fact, I drew this up just for shits.

Also, long time (few years, actually) lurker ...just posted. So, there you have it.

Damn those look lovely together.  Very nice work.   The first RoboCop game is still among my most favourite arcade games ever.  It may be somewhat basic but it sure feels great marching along as RoboCop and punching/shooting all the bad guys.
