You didn't overpay at all. It looks like it's in great shape. Get some plastic protectors... STAT. They're next to impossible to come by.

It's a way better game than people give it credit for. Simple rules, super powerful flippers... what more does a game need to be fun?

My first robocop was really nice and **reluctantly** i traded it. I hear it ended up going to PAPA.

Sold my second robocop last month.. *only bought it to compare to my 3rd*.

Keeping my third.... because it's the silver cab/ red apron prototype

Pics coming... eventually.

Here you go robocop lovers. The prototype.

It's mostly the same as production. It has, of course, the silver metallic cab instead of black. The apron is red instead of black. They used the chrome speaker panel instead of black. There are plastics on the production model that aren't on the prototype.. mostly in places where the ball could get stuck.

The playfield art is the same as far as i can tell, but they used the same metallic silver as the cab where the production model uses regular grey paint. I'm guessing they did that because the silver metallic come flying off fairly easy. Luckily it just needs minor touch up around the flipper area thanks to mylar.

I haven't noticed anything different with game play, but there's another set of roms in a bag that i haven't tried yet. They could be proto roms, could be different... no idea. Eventually i'll pop them in an eprom burner and find out the mysteries of the universe (just not today)
