Mortal Kombat Arcade Cabinets, Parts & Ebay auctions

[Tim Static]

I figured maybe we could use athread just for MK cabinets, where to find them, parts, acessories, repairs, not to mention eBay auctions and such so that serious fans know where to go and can find the best deals on cabinets.

Post links to eBay auctions here also.

If I were to bid on a cabinet I wouldn't post the information here. (one of you dicks might outbid me )

Here are 2 auctions for 2 REALLY nice cabinets for MK1 & UMK3:

That last one is worth 305$
I'd pay about 200$ tops for it though, cause Im a dick like that.

A lot of people have huge wide screens these days, I would think they would just make a podium cpanel and connect it like that.
That is basically all the old 50" cabinets used to be.

I wouldnt pay $5 for the last one.

Correction, that cab is worth more just for the UMk3 jamma board oll:

I want the MK4 machine with the wide screen monitor (presentation I think its called) and switch out the jamma with UMk3 and have a buddy of mine re-paint it with airbrushed UMK3 logos, etc. Just like this one:

Your idea would be pretty bad ass.

The UMK3 cab looks pretty good, we just dont really get to see how the screen is :?

 

[Tim Static]

That MK1 is NICE. See how big the control panel is? Its about the size of Frank's UMK3 cab! You very rarely find a cab that size for MK1. Trust me, I know. I've looked!

 

[dubson]

Frank's screen is bigger though.

I just want Frank's UMK3 cab :cry:

 

[Tim Static]

Frank's screen is bigger though.

I just want Frank's UMK3 cab :cry:

the MK1 cab has a 30" screen; Frank's is 33", but UMK3 is better.

That MK4 cab has a 35" screen, and is in Marion, Ohio which isnt far from here! I am gonna email him and ask him if he'll straight up trade me that MK4 cab for my UMK3 cab (- the jamma board), a MK3 & MKII jamma.

I agree tim! I thought the thread was out of date with the ebay auctions but it's really fine.
