Hi Everyone. Thank you for all these stunning details regarding the recreation of this arcade alley. Did anyone noticed the strange cabinet colors of the Gottlieb Genie ? Orange-red is not the classic paint scheme for this game, nor the stars on the front side (they look like the stars from GTB drop targets). Does anyone can tell if this is a custom made re-paint or an original prototype paint scheme ? Kind regards
