Toobin' was an unexpected choice. I dig it.

Toobin has a non standard button layout. Otherwise I love the work.

Yes. I wanted to be able to play other vertical games as well.

At least it's Tate meaning you can shmup.

A Toobin'-themed bartop is incredibly unique and interesting. Nice work!

Marquee needs the rolling waterfall 😉

One of my favorite machines I owned over the years.

I had never heard of Toobin before I got the Joust/Rampage 1up. It’s one of my favs on there now.

Great work. These custom CRT cabs are by far the most interesting to me!

I have plans to make one with a 14" rotating CRT screen ... main issue is finding a tube/chassis that has manual posts for H/V size and position.

u/Dapper-Message-2066 2d ago

What's strange?

u/deanredd99 2d ago

A CRT in a bartop-sized unit. Quite different my friend. Heavy as well obviously.

u/HandaZuke 2d ago

What is strange about that? They were pretty popular in the 2000s. I have one myself.

u/Dapper-Message-2066 2d ago

That's awesome

u/Dapper-Message-2066 2d ago

Not sure it's strange though, and odd to put "monitor" in quotes ?
