dzhay1981 Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Hi All Not sure if this is the correct forum, but it seemed the closest fit. I've just bought a super neo 29 like this one: The CPO is buggered, and the stickers on the side could use replacing as well. I've searched high and low to find a vector of the CPO. There are vectors around of the Hyper Neo layout, the type II layout and even the atomiswave version of the Super Neo 29 (which I didn't even know existed). But for the vanilla version of the cabinet, no luck. Gameongrafix has a vector and will print it, but the cost of postage is astronomical. I've looked on ArcadeOtaku, vectorlib, neo-geo.com and assorted blogs and forums. Has anyone either got a copy of the vector or any suggestions where I might look? Cheers Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwodie Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 I have one of these cabs and I am pretty sure all art is in tact. At worst I can get some hi res photos for you for reproduction Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Tom Hey mate, where did you pick one of these up? I love those cabs, but they are not hugely common in Australia. Great looking candy cab. Did you bring it in from o'seas, or got lucky enough to find one local? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you bring it in from o'seas, or got lucky enough to find one local? I bought mine from Highway like 4 or 5 years ago. They had 20 of them and I picked the least smoker damaged one. So they all musta gone somewhere!! It might be worth emailing them if you are really keen. - - - Updated - - - Amazing, thanks mate.

dzhay1981 Posted October 29, 2018 Author Share Posted October 29, 2018 For the record, I bought mine from 240 amusements and as at the time I ordered mine, they had 2 left, including 1 with the weird (and non-working) lcd screen in the marquee area.

Did you bring it in from o'seas, or got lucky enough to find one local? 240 had a few they were advertising on gumtree about a month ago, the ad isn't listed anymore though. My mate went in there to grab one and said they had some with and without the marquee LCD. He didn't end up getting one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namastepat Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Yeah, not in the market for one, have just never seen one for sale in my area. If I ever end up getting more space for candy cabs, one of these would be high on my list as a desired cab, they have a great look to them and SNK is such a memorable arcade company.

dzhay1981 Posted November 2, 2018 Author Share Posted November 2, 2018 Saw this. Seems a good price: https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/coolbellup/video-games/arcade-machine/1197911909 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
namastepat Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Bloody good price. Shame it's 4000km from me :( good bargain for someone in Perth for sure. EDIT: Wait, is it a genuine Neo 29? Or a clone? Marquee says LS Sounds. Looks like a Chinese clone. Not as much of a bargain as I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonjo Posted November 2, 2018 Share Posted November 2, 2018 Is that an ashtray on the lhs of the control panel? Sent from my iPhone using Aussie Arcade Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Aussie Arcade Yeah, it's quite common for candy cab clones to have ashtrays built in. I've seen it on a few clones. Proper Japanese cabs usually had a Sega/Taito/Namco branded ashtray that just sat on the control panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were for coins but I s’pose that’s what people use them for now. I’ll have a to keep an eye out for one!

Segasonic91 Posted November 10, 2018 Share Posted November 10, 2018 I was tempted by the 240 Hyper NEO, but it's 240! Had a bad experience with their extremely shitty "restored" New Astro City. Ripped of severely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
