I found a MVS-U4 that had been converted to "Eggs Playing Chicken". I got it gutted and it had been pretty messed up in the conversion. I have completely taken every single screw out of it and had it powder coated to glossy black. I need to get a new control panel to complete this.

Anyone know where I can get one?

If not I will mock one up in fiberglass and go with that for a while.

I will be posting pictures up soon. It actually looks pretty good so far.

Are you looking for the actual control panel, or a control panel overlay?

If you just need a cp overlay, I know electricgrave has them hosted somewhere.

Ideally I would be able to get a whole control panel.

This thing was really hacked up and they cut it for the big button on Eggs Playing Chicken.

I will post some pictures today.

I am not familiar with Ken at Gameroom - do you have a link?

the control panel is the one visible thing I did not have coated. I am not sure what I am going to do with it. If I have to use it I will probably coat it some bright color......

What's up with the left handed Forgotten Worlds back there?

You are only seeing the spinner of Player #1 and the Joystick of Player #2 - it is a standard Forgotten Worlds.

Ken is probably the one who converted it to begin with :)
Probably would be a good place to start though, he's a pretty cool guy.

MVS-U4 cabs use a two layer panel. I have an extra original CPO for the MVS-U4 (25") I'd be willing to sell, but based on your pic it looks like you'll also need layer underneath where you mount the joysticks.

I know this is a couple year old thread, but i just picked one of these cabs up and my overlay is faded out big time.

Do you still have the extra control panel? I just need the overlay metal part with the MVS art.


Or know where to get one?

Thanks!
