its a good lo-res cab, easily converted to jamma (just connect the speakers in series).

horisontal only tho, only the MV-6 can be mounted vertically out of the SNK candies.

That's true, but it seems that this particular one is the 33" rather than the 27" which is the one I have, noetheless it is my favorite candy so far, it's a shame it doesn't rotate though.

To be honest I wouldn't even bother converting this cab to jamma. It may sound lazy, but I got one of them jamma to MVS thingies and it works like a champ, 26 bucks and you can still use your MVS cab the way it was meant to.

Those are some sweet looking cabs there. If you're picking one up stateside, and you don't plan on buying them all, please feel free to shoot some contact info my way.

I think the one furthest to the right (with the vertically tated monitor) is an OK Baby candy cab.

You are right not sonic, that is a Jaleco Pony IV IIRC. Just on the other of the side of that Jaleco is my Hyper64/Super Neo 29. These machines were used in an import arcade in DFW until 06 then stored. Most of these cabs have been in storage for the past 2 years while the owner was in Japan. They are dirty but they are in pretty decent shape. Here is a thread with some pics of my cab I got from him. It will give you an idea of the clean up that is necessary. Also, he will come off the price of the cab if you buy some other boards from him. I did local pick up in a friend's cargo van to get mine home - delivery was $0. I took some photos while I was there - he had a couple of mini cutes also. If you are willing to spend an evening or two with a magic eraser to clean it up, its not a bad deal.

oh yeah, he also had a Neo 25 in addition to the 27"s that are seen in your pic, 2 or three PONYs, another Hyper 64, and the last time I talked to him he had a couple of Megalo 410s that he retrieved out of the warehouse. Sadly I am out of space - I would have loved a Megalo - but I would have had to sell my KI2 cab - which I plan to be buried in....

Thanks for the info. Checked google, definitely a Jaleco Pony IV. Thanks for the link to your thread as well. Can't believe how good your cab turned out in the before and after pics.

Here's a link to a picture of a Jaleco Pony that some moron butchered to make a craptastic MAME abomination.
