NoAffinity said: Anybody know were to get a good repro gen 2 monitor shroud? Not the wood, just the piece that move list stickers go on. I always want to call it construction paper, but I know that’s not right. Poster board? I don’t know…hopefully you guys know what I’m talking about. Looking to get a good repro, as mine went by the wayside long ago. Click to expand…

Thanks guys. I did that for one of my Donkey Kong’s which was missing the shroud, but admittedly the cuts were a bit rough, and you don’t see them recessed in the DK cab and behind a tinted bezel. Was hoping someone made one pre-cut, but I may have to refine my process to do this right for my BB.
I remember seeing someone had a custom SSF2T shroud, with graphics and move lists covering it. I just dug back through the thread and couldn’t find it, possibly it was a photo bucket link that no longer works. Is that BB owner still here, or anyone know what I’m talking about?

Price dropped to $120 + $25 shipping for those marquees. Heck, why not; I pulled the trigger.

You beat me to it. I literally went on to buy them after he turned down my offer for the punisher. Congrats!

We should update the large marquee master list at the top of this thread; I believe the puzzle fighter marquee is a new discovery!

Anyone make reproduction (good quality) big blue Marquees?
Anyone know who does reproduction art for The Punisher? I saw Szabo’s Arcade did at one point, but only did a limited run.

Zero238 said: He hasn’t sent it out yet, he did text me pics of the side art so I know at least they have made progress with the artwork. I don’t mind waiting for it to be done. I already have a SFCE cab waiting to be converted to a punisher since the sides had been horribly painted. Click to expand…

Detroit44 sent his cab to Szabo and commissioned him to reproduce the artwork. Make a pre order to help fund the project, but not a lot of people went for it. Bit the bullet and is taking all the cost so he can have the artwork made. Szabo is taking his time to get the artwork perfect and the cpo is taking a bit more time to finish. Since I’m not in a hurry to get it, I’m fine with it as long as I know they are making it happen.
