very nice mdsfx
Got my order in tonight for the HRAPex plexi and an art cutout. Awesome response time on Art’s part. Thanks much :tup: Lookin forward to gettin this bad boy in and puttin it down on my stick, now if gremlinsolutions would just ship me my buttons and balltop :mad:
I just made sure there was no debris and sprayed away. the can says to use soap and water or paint thinner depending on what plastic you are spraying
Dude, that is freakin awesome! That’s going on my showcase page =P.
I hear ya. I dunno who to order buttons and sticks from right now, lol. Gremlinsolutions better than Aki?
Lol I dunno if their better. not really seeming it right now, they seem to be dodging all my emails regarding my order, but they have my money! The reason I ordered from them was they were open while Aki is close till early next month
Oh dang! I haven’t kept up with the details on Aki, and they’re closed too? Goodness… with LL and Aki down, you’re right… no choice but to go with Gremlins. Shoot… was going to look into Seimitsu buttons too =P.
Hmmm, wonder if I should expand and get some connections for pushbuttons and sticks when they’re available again, lol. Who needs sleep =P
Lol yeah, Aki, LL, Arcadeshop.de. All closed to online orders (arcadeshop.de just to orders to ship to america…) So basicly tracking down sanwa parts was a biotch =/. But yeah placed my order to Gremlins on the 8th, still haven’t gotten even word that they’ve been shipped, or word from the site specifically that they received my order, just my paypal receipt… you know the more I say this stuff the stupider I feel about ordering from them :chainsaw:
edit: As far as picking up your own stock for distro through your sight, I dunno much about bulk sites, iirc coinopexpress is ok, but most orders at 30+ of sticks and 100+ of buttons
Checked out his site. All the good stuff are sold out too =(. It’s damn paypal’s cart system. It doesn’t show you what’s sold out until you click to “process order”.
Hmmm, maybe they’re out of stock but haven’t told you about it =(. I say threaten to retract your purchase through paypal dispute and see if they answer you then… Well, that is unless you just want to wait it out and not burn any bridges.
And yeah, buying in bulk… one of the buttons from CoinOp has a minimum of 2400 orders, lol. Good thing they’re like $0.20 each, but still, that’s half a grand. Overall, if they were available and the demand is still high, it’s not a bad investment. Sok, I stick to plexi’s. =)
Whoo hoo! Wow, you went all out and painted the whole thing. What type of paint did you use?
Oh, yeah! I figured that if I wanted to do an art mod I should just go the whole nine. Blue Krylon Fusion for the body. The trim parts I used a krylon primer, silver, gold, and clear coat to seal it. Using the fusion type I found isn’t really necessary unless you don’t feel like using a primer. It seems pretty durable, but the parts where I used plain ol krylon paint turned out much smoother and bonded just as well to the plastic. I think the fusion brand is a scam to get white folks to paint their patio furniture. (at least that’s what the guy on the can was doing)
sweet!! mind throwing up the viewlix art?
Try Modchipman, they have some clear seimitsus now and a decent selection of sanwas, ive ordered from them like 4 times already got 2 JLF’s a mounting plate some shaft covers, and a few buttons, they always ship fast.
Is it possible that you could add military APO AP to you website… I am in Japan and would like to place a order.
Hey Arthur thanks for the plexiglass. Here’s my C. Viper artwork with your TE Plexiglass!!

Damnit, I apparently missed it. Shows up as out of stock right now, doh! Thanks though. I’ll keep that around as another source.
Hey CPU, can you pm me the full shipping address? I don’t really see a separate option to check on APO pricing. I may need to plug in your full address to get a better idea. Thanks!
Nicely done! More for my collection =). Thanks again man!
Common or not, I want your Vewlix artwork on my sticks. How can I get it from you
