I just realized, it looks like Marco is behind that chick in yellow, and the C buttons label on both sides is just slightly lower. I bought a 2 slot MVS repro from them and it was good quality, but this looks like utter poop, design-wise and quality-wise.

Found one in action today browsing around an arcade gallery:
I don't hate it or anything... just not my thing. I like plain CP overlays.

I'm guilty I bought it....... naw I saw it and puked (cheap whiskey, is my conclusion.) I know a forum member that would prob. jump on this though, with enough hype?

Hells yeah!
Seriously though, seeing that monstrosity on an actual cab further quashes my faith in humanity... as if it needed any help.
It just does not compute. If you go to all the trouble to have a Neo cab why would someone put Street Fighter art on it? And mediocre cut n' paste SF art no less...

Why exactly are they hiding Marco?
Even if all the characters made sense its still weird to have Marco hidden behind somebody's hair.

In the above pic of the cab Marco is in plain view, weird. Did he change the layout to hide Marco or the other way around?

Wow, good catch. Totally missed that. Now its even more weird because the current CPO on arcadeoverlays.com has Marco partially hidden. But as you pointed out, he is clearly visible on that cab's CPO. So it almost seems like a previous version had him out in the open, and the latest version he is behind the girl in the yellow. Now what could the point of that possibly be?

Then I suppose it was a noble cause.
Still ridiculous that they are selling these things. Pretty much all the images are recycled in other "products" like this marquee:
At least 5 of the characters are the same or flipped pictures, with the addition of several marvel and mortal kombat characters, plus superman and a ninja turtle.
EDIT: Ok so those mortal kombat guys don't fit at all. First, they are (and somebody correct me if I'm wrong here) from the game Mortal Kombat Armageddon, which I believe was released in 2006, so I would hardly think it fitting to put them around the words "Classic Arcade". Not only that but I don't think MK Armageddon was ever released for an arcade platform. I'm pretty sure it was just for the "Big 3" current generation consoles (again, correct me if I'm wrong).
