RidicRick Posted August 4, 2014 Author Share Posted August 4, 2014 The latest update. My Fix It Felix Jr cab was a star this past weekend. Saturday I attended the Twin Galaxies ART GALLERY EXHIBITION at the ICON Gallery in Fairfield, Iowa. I was put on a limited set of trading cards and given an award at the award ceremonies. An amazing weekend it was and got to hang out with a bunch of good people and friends. Then Sunday the famous 1982 LIFE magazine TWIN GALAXIES photo was reenacted with some of the same big stars Billy Mitchell, Joel West, Steve Sanders and of course Walter Day. Also many top gamers from then and now attended and received awards. Here are some of the pics from the event, the professional ones taken by William McEvoy. The large group photo One of the fun photos we did. Notice Walter Day and My Fix It Felix Jr photo bombing...hahaha From left to right. Joel West, Richie Vomit, Richie Knücklez, RidicRick, Mike Oehlerich, Billy Mitchell, and Steve Sanders. Down in front is Tracey Groy one of the five cheerleaders from the original LIFE magazine photo The original 1982 Twin Galaxies photo The 1982 photo was published as a two-page centerfold in LIFE's January, 1983 issue - the "1982 Year-In-Review" edition -- and included 16 superstar V.I.P video game players along with five members of Ottumwa High School's cheerleading squad. For this modern remake of the classic photoshoot, three of the original video gamers (Billy Mitchell, of Hollywood, FL; Steve Sanders of Kansas City, MO and Joel West, of Gastonia, NC) appeared in the picture along with one of the original cheerleaders, Tracey Groy, now of Phoenix, Arizona. Cited from Twin Galaxies site. What used to be Twin Galaxies is now Optical Shoppe. The original Twin Galaxies. Me being goofy again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SORHP Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I like how the ms pac is a converted pac, and fifjr is playing a cameo off in the distance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidicRick Posted August 7, 2014 Author Share Posted August 7, 2014 I would have brought ms pac if I had known they needed one.. instead they brought a regular pac and changed the marquee.. yeah I had the idea to make FIFJR photobomb and it ended up even better than we thought.

jiggyphats Posted August 10, 2014 Share Posted August 10, 2014 So I finally decided to build a Fix-it Felix cabinet. I got the plans to build a Donkey Kong cabinet and ordered joysticks, buttons etc. I am sure the last thing I will do is get the graphics done. Can anyone give me a ballpark figure on how much it would cost to get the art printed? I am working out the rest of my budget (lumber, Plexiglas, medical bills for wood cutting accidents) Thanks a bunches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sledge Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 So after reading through a gazillion pages, it seems BBB never released his version? Any way to encourage this to happen? A petition to Disney maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidicRick Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 My plexi and lexan finally came in. So now I am putting these reverse print kits together. I should be done with them within the next few days. If you want a set before they are sold out let me know. I have two options you can choose from. $120 for a marquee and cpo, or $210 for marquee, cpo and bezel. All reverse printed to look like it came out in 1982. I only have 8 marquee/cpo sets and 7 marquee, cpo and bezel sets. If you want sideart included just add $65. PM me if you are interested. Thanks.

HazzardActual Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 did you just have a different set of art on it for that photo op you had a month or so ago? They look great by the way Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RidicRick Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 yeah the photo op it was just vinyl graphics on top of lexan.. now my set has then installed reverse printed under the lexan/plexi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HazzardActual Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 How expensive is it to do a custom marquee like that? I might just have to get one made by you if the price is right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
