Those Bally Midway cocktails used a 19" monitor. Ah well. I know someone who can use the 13", and finding a 19" for the cocktail shouldn't be too hard. That is right.

I dropped off the Omega Race boardset last weekend, had just battery acid damage just in the one corner where the battery was, not dripped all across the components. Hope to have a Galaga boardset in the mail in a month or so. The 13 in. monitor is also spoken for, and I've started to look at how to cut that opening bigger for a 19" monitor...mostly at Kyle Lindstrom's plans from 2001. The main parts of value will be those control panels I imagine... Well…the deed is probably done now…

It's tough! I think there are a ton of vector guys that may do a decent swap. At least get a non-working Galaga cocktail in trade for this one. Especially if the monitor was good. This one is rough and you could get a decent Galaga in a swap! I also agree with going with a 48in1 either way. Plays galaga great, and a ton of other great games in cocktail mode. Everyone loves my 48in1! Omega Race is a great game if you get the hang of it. It's tough! I think there are a ton of vector guys that may do a decent swap.
