Looking for a move strip for my copy of WW7 to set my can up as a dedicated WW7 machine. Working on artwork for the marquee right now but I'd rather have an original move strip if possible (reproduction artwork considered I can't get one).

Thanks!

I would recommend against using a real move strip. You don't see many kits and I won't break my kit to sell the move strip. I can try to do a high red scan of my move strip and you get a sticker made at any print shop. Just my two cents. And yes your WW7 is still rad lol

Dude, if you could high-res scan it, I would totally get it printed along with the marquee I'm making :buttrock:

I checked & I don't have the moves sheet for this game, and I agree that nobody wants to destroy a complete kit just to sell it by itself, but for the record, I do have dozens of extra moves sheets for many other neogeo games if anyone is interested in buying or trading them.

I had a feeling you'd chime in at some point. Thanks again for the art set hookup for KOF98/99 and MS1. And thanks for checking.

Looking forward to Panda's scan. I'll be making a trip over to FedEx Office for some prints. Pretty sure WW7 is obscure enough to prevent eyebrows from being raised by staff.

Trying my hand at designing a marquee that fits that odd shaped Super Neo 29 header:

If KP isn't able to do his today, I'll try to take a pass at mine tomorrow (JP version). I don't have a great scanner set up that I can use, but do have a couple options that are worth a shot.

Sorry about that guys, work and family stuff caught me up yesterday. I'm out of town til Sunday but I'll do it Sunday afternoon when I get back. For the record, mine will be English. If Gyrian can do a Jp version that would be pretty rad too.

Thanks for the offer Gyrian. I'd love to see both versions. Hopefully the scan comes out well. Keep us posted 😊👍

So, I ended up treating this as a mini project & Photoshop dust-off session.
Scanned and cleaned up all the art in the kit:

Title Cards

Finished work is 600dpi, coming in pretty sharp! I tried my best to respect the original physical dimensions, which these files are set to. It was kind of a fun challenge to repair what the scanner botched (plus a handful of imperfections in the originals):

Everyone that showed interest here has already been sent a PM with the scans. Feel free to write if you'd like a copy, too. If at all possible, I'd like to keep these shared closely here among the community, rather than facilitate someone else using them for the wrong reasons.

Redesigned the Super Neo 29 Candy Marquee a bit inspired by and thanks to the artwork provided.

I'll obnoxiously toss that into my signature now

UPDATE:

Did a test print of the move strip and custom marquee. Looks like I need to make some adjustments to the measurements for the move strip as it came out larger than expected. Trimmed the bottom edge and right side to get it to fit. Marquee needs to be printed on backlit material for better results. Currently on cardstock.

Very Cool setup! Candy Cabs are some of the best arcade cabs to own outside of a big red imo.

Nice looking cab!

Thanks! I have been looking for something that would make me want to keep it in a single configuration like this for a while. It was down to this and MOTW but that one plays great and looks awesome in my Big Red :)
