    RFM is a favorite, but Tbgolfen's custom Frontier blew me away

    I like paragon alot. Sorcerer would be a close second. Both pins cabinets, pf, and bg artwork go well together.

    I prefer the old stencil art. Love the simplicity:

    HAUNTED HOUSE IS MY VOTE! I forgot! Or Spirit!

    Lots of cool art there. When I was a kid riding in the car, it was a challenge to identify games by the side art when we would pass by a store and they were visible. Sometimes they would sometimes be back to back next to the window in 7-11s and the like.

    +1 for WNBJM with the crate.

    Just being facetious here, but a true collector eventually has there machines so close together that the side art hardly shows.

    Save the best for the ends!

    Here is my favorite.

    This thread makes me long for the days of direct screenprinted cabinets instead of stickers.

    Not me. I love well done vinyl decals.

    I’m with you, can’t beat sweet art like this. What a weird and cool cabinet, it’s nightmarish!

    I dunno, I look at my DI and the visible seam, the texture all wrong... It's just not the same. It looks nice but the colours aren't as vibrant as the screenprinted games.

    Like I said if the vinyl is nice it’s worlds better for me. Just can’t get that HD crystal clear look with a screen print. Plus the wear. Mainly speaking from a tech standpoint, not what is actually being used from these manufacturers.

    The cabinet art on Hook is pretty amazing, and it continues beautifully on the coin door and the head box.

    Quoted from littlecammi:

    Best cabinet side art is Elvira and the Party Monsters and Creature from the Black Lagoon.

    I still believe those are the best, but I would now have to add BM66 SuperLE and Mustang Pro right up there with them.

    #77 5 years ago

    You almost have to divide stencil art from modern hd prints.

    I love haunted house and paragon for stencil.

    Newer prints have got to go with hobbit, LOTR, BM66, or even Ghostbusters

    Tough call, so many...

    CV and BBB for me.

    I love Medieval Madness cab art. I keep mine on the end of my row for this very reason.

    Lol! Voting on a cab art that isn’t even released!

    #83 5 years ago

    Twister has always been a favorite of mine with the side art. Even know the truck on the cabinet was not the right truck from that scene in the movie. But thats okay!

    No offense guys I have a spirit and it's awesome, but cabinet art compared to haunted house, no way! Lol, the haunted house cabinet art is so good..

    The munsters pro cab art is my favorite of the bunch. It has the munsters koach!

    #86 5 years ago

    I prefer painted art over photo shopped photos, so I will throw out an honorable mention for Voltan Escapes Cosmic Doom. The backglass and playfield really steal the spotlight, but I think it a clever and well done side stencil.
