Does anyone know what were all the colors these cabinets came in? I've seen red sparkle, blue sparkle?

I've also seen solid yellow. That cabinet was in a LOT of 70s sci-fi movies.

I was just watching Soylent Green the other day. There was a white one in that movie.

Wonder what happened to that white one? That would be a true find...probably sat on some sound stage for 20 years and got smashed.... People, its made of people!
The colors I know of were (single player) red and blue sparkle, flat yellow and a (dual player only) green sparkle.
BTW, I am pretty sure that yellow one is Jerry Jessup's, and IIRC, it is serial number 1. It is really wild to see it in that condition.

Looks like whoever owned this particular unit added a standard arcade cherry-switch button to the control panel.

I'm betting that's a freeplay button.

Hehe! I just re-read the description and yep, that sounds like the freeplay button!
Too bad they added it though. Kind of ruins the original look of the panel a bit.
I'd love to buy this, but why must it be located in CANADA of all places???

If I owned a vehicle suitable for moving it myself I would consider it... but the hassle of renting a vehicle, paying for mileage, etc just makes it the same cost as having the thing shipped.

And its in my city! Too bad its price is spirally out of what I couldpay. Not too big a deal since there is record store here that has it and
pong for freeplay in their store.
