    Is Kuru the one where you can have two weapons and change between?

    If it is it apparently adds a whole other dimension to the game. Obviously not worth over 1k, but sounds interesting!

    It's only worth that money because it's rare as hell .
    When played properly it's harder than normal Ibara because you need to keep the rank maxed out before the Xtreme Terror Counter kicks in and you can get a decent score .

    For anyone looking to get some arcade artwork to restore a cab or build a new one I've almost finished uploading 25GB of ultra high res stuff to my artwork site. This is the sort of stuff that's usually behind a paywall so work away for free on my site if you need it :)

    Personally, I'm just going to get a few new marquees in this batch professionally printed on canvas for my new mancave expansion :)

    Ok so the original chome beading that I did on my bartop kept coming away which I was annoyed at so I decided to re-do the carbon fibre vinyl wrap (after another sanding job) and re-do the chrome trim while I was at it.

    On the advice of a friend I ordered some black melamine, ironed that onto the corners and then put the 3M backed beading over that.

    Bloody disaster... after a few days it was coming away in the corners again as you can see here:

    10264293_10204091254904437_8091683656048540204_n.jpg

    It also started to come away at the edges of the screen too. Found an older post on the forum here from I think it was The Last Bandit about his build. He recommended getting some slow set araldite and using masking tape to hold it all in place during application time and setting time.

    He also advised to remove the 3M stick stuff from the chrome trim because it sucks (and it really really does).

    Anyway here she sits after some work tonight:

    Really hope this works because if it doesn't I give up...

    Mr. Vestek on here became an Irish reseller for bartop cab shells, about a momth or 2 ago. Hes based in Dublin.

    I think the Last Badit made up one or 2 for guys on here also.

    You won't get one local dude as most people keep theirs and sell on with cab.
