Quoted from johnwartjr:I was under the impression the proto GNR had a drop target in front of the 'add band member' hole...
Nope, but there is a stand up target next to the Axl scoop with the extra "Time to Rock" insert just below it.
Quoted from Ronnie1114:WOW! What a neat looking game. How does it play?
Quoted from dtown:Dude, I thought the same thing when I saw the pics. Please! How does it play?
Quoted from Pdxmonkey:Looks like Tommy
Pdxmonkey is right. It is based off a Tommy. So it plays, well, like a Tommy. The very basics of the rules, sounds, and display were changed. The "Kabuki" code isn't very deep. As a matter of fact, once you get to a certain point in the game play, it turns back into a Tommy (Sounds, display, etc). The game was never intended to be anything deep or complex. It was built to lift the spirits of the chairman of NAMCO who was battling a very aggressive form of cancer. While not a complete game by any means, it served its intended purpose well, and is still fun to play.
Quoted from LTG:There are two of them. The one built for chairman and one made after the fact ( by Herb Silvers ? ). The one made for the chairman is supposed to be a little more than the other.
LTG : )™
From my understanding, the code for the 2 is exactly the same. The cabinet art, and plastic are are different as the one pictured is the one Herb built and he came up with the cab and plastic art on his own. The one you have access to, is that my old one or the chairman's?

Quoted from LTG:Not mine, it was the chairman's.
Info I got was from the current owner.

Oh Wow! I always figured the chairmans was still in Japan. Any chance you can get your friend to share some pictures of the chairman's version? I would love to see the differences as the only pictures I know of are of mine that I submitted to IPDB.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:Does it still use the blinders? I bet if it's there it comes out as a japanese fan.
Yes, and yes.
Quoted from Blackjacker:So much nicer than the piss-yellow production version!
Quoted from CaptainNeo:Maybe piss yellow/green if you drank antifreeze. I like the yellow version better. If you put that in the game, you know how hard it would be to even see that ramp. Way to dark and would blend in to much.
Actually the tinted one looks much better in the game IMO. It actually makes seeing through and behind it easier and doesnt blend in at all. Theme wise it actually makes more sense too as guns aren't usually neon yellow.
