Sheesh, I was tempted with the Punisher one, but really wanted this, unfortunately I have already spent too much on comics recently..... Super Jealous! I just wanted to thank you both for posting here. I kept missing the pre-sales on these and honestly I haven't been keeping up on the release dates. I was able to get my order in and it should be arriving to my door on Friday. I'm pretty excited about this. In my pre-kid days, I had a full-sized arcade cabinet with original boards for TMNT, Turtles in Time, and a few other 4-player beat-em-ups. I had big plans to customize that cabinet with TMNT artwork and make it very nice, but then we had kids on the way and it took up too much room for our place at the time. I sold the cabinet before we moved over 5 years ago and I eventually sold the boards earlier this year. This machine is Perfect for what I'm looking for. It takes up less room than a normal arcade machine, has some of the best games built in, and is less expensive than the full size version (one of the boards covered the cost of this whole thing). Thanks guys! ADAMANTIUM and SpideyFein 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nriccijr Posted October 8, 2019 Share Posted October 8, 2019 It is absolutely beautiful and a perfect size IMO. Up there as a grail with my Sideshow statues and Raph page. Turtle, SpideyFein and ADAMANTIUM 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Turtle Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 My son and I got most of this built over the weekend. We finished the riser and got most of the cabinet put together. However, I ordered a light-up marquee for it that should arrive in a week or two so I'm going to wait for that instead of putting everything together only to take it apart again when it gets here. So for now, it's just going to take up space on its side in the middle of the living room. In the mean time, I figured I'd post the pic I took from NYCC from the Arcade 1up booth. They had a MASSIVE Marvel Super Heroes game that was very popular. It was literally the biggest arcade cabinet I've ever seen.

I'm on the fence for the TMNT Arcade 1-up due to price but that doesn't keep me for being super excited for you guys! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm on the fence for the TMNT Arcade 1-up due to price but that doesn't keep me for being super excited for you guys! My reasoning: a full-sized original version would easily cost 3x more (or much more depending on the condition), take up more room, and only have one of the games. I was also a little hesitant, but the tipping point for me was that getting these while they're new helps me to avoid the secondary market. With my luck, I'd contemplate getting one of these for too long, they'd stop making them, then I'd end up paying double the price for a used one that I have to drive 2 hours to pick up myself. Buying it now means Wal-Mart delivered a new one right to my door. That made the decision very easy. ADAMANTIUM 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spracknetch23 Posted October 28, 2019 Share Posted October 28, 2019 The book never ceases to amaze me. It should not be more significant than TMNT #1 1st printing in my opinion..yet the prices say otherwise. Turtle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
