Supposedly this is one of only five in existence - fact or fiction?

Since it appears the builder used the "slider" leg levelers, I would
guess fiction.

You can't possibly think that is true???.Someone made that in their garage
or something.A true horror to do that to the worlds most classic game.

Either way, the cabinet looks very nicely done. Plus, it
does resemble the very rare Baby Pac-Man mini cabinets.

Some odd cabinets always tend to show up on April 1 of each year.

Just sayin.

Yes it was well made but surely not a Proto at all.

I took this pic yesterday at the Chicagoland game show so no April
fools here. Besides, he was asking $2,900.00 for it!

I remember this cabinet coming up several years ago...believe it or not I
think it does have early production authenticity where a few of these were
made for Midway techs......but I'm going off my very bad memory...I might be
way off but I think its legit...anyone remember for sure?

If you think thats funny, that chucklehead told me on Friday that it
was a prototype #2 of 5 ever made and the cost was $3200. I asked how
much, he just said $32, I had to ask dollars? he replied, no $3200...I
tried not to laugh.

A $300.00 price drop in one day - I wonder what it was down to
today? :)
