Space Harrier Deluxe cabinet in UK?
Just out of curiosity, is it still possible to experience a big hydraulic Space Harrier cab anywhere in the UK?

Re: Space Harrier Deluxe cabinet in UK?
I was fortunate enough to have one in a local arcade, where it stayed for years. I'd sometimes walk there with only 50p so I could play it. Managed to 1cc it with 30p eventually.
I was obsessed by it when I was 9-10. I used to keep a moth eaten spectrum cassette inlay card in my pocket and hum the theme music when I did my paper round.
I'm sure I've talked about this before. Every year.

I think there will be one at Arcade Club soon if there isn't one already.

Re: Space Harrier Deluxe cabinet in UK?
I think the last couple sited were in Hantstanton and Ryde, IoW but they went a good few years back now.
There are maybe three out there with collectors that I know of.
Even rarer than OutRun deluxe.

Re: Space Harrier Deluxe cabinet in UK?
There is at least two in various stages with UK collectors, there was a raid on some place that had a bunch of these stored. Apparently, they also found a cocktail cab with a large dildo inside, and the place was used for 'watersports' parties. But none of the cabs were involved in those shenanigans it seems

Re: Space Harrier Deluxe cabinet in UK?
These 2 SH DLX cabs were found and are both currently being restored
And this was genuinely what fell out when we prised the lid off this cocktail cabinet
More pics and whatnot on ukvac if anyone wants to read more about that particular day.

Been a long time since I've fapped to a copy of Escort magazine.
To my surprise, apparently still being published.
