Tron is not that difficult to find. The only real issues are the ribbon connectors between the boards, but new replacements can be found. it should be possible to find a restored game somewhere.

Quoted from ToucanF16:

Regarding CRT vs LCD. The guy proposing my built can go either way. But he says, “… Some games just don't look right with an LCD but Tron has a recessed monitor and it actually looks better (in my opinion).”
Is that true about the Tron recessed monitor?

Guess that depends on his definition of "Recessed".
It's no more "Recessed than a dedicated Pac-Man, Galaga, Galaxian, Rally-X, etc, etc...
One big difference with a CRT vs a LCD panel is that CRT's are generally curved, LCD's are flat. that why there's a curves edge bezel between the CRT front and the glass bezel on the game. I think you need to stay away from this guy.
