Old special effects clips, Phillies games, videogames, lightsabers, and other random stuff. I am also an Aikido practitioner and have a second YouTube channel for my Aikido videos.
Some pics of the Numskull quarter arcade Space Invaders Part II. It is a little taller than my Arcade1Up countercades, although the screen is obviously a lot smaller.
Just snagged the red and yellow "The Force" lightsabers. They are more battle-worn than my green one and the hilts sustained some damage, but they still make the whooshing sound.
Cool relic from the past: Kenner "The Force" lightsaber, alongside my other Luke ROTJ replicas from over the last couple decades: Park Sabers Arc Wave (early 2000's), Master Replicas (2005), and Sabermach Hero (bought in spring 2023).
Finally got my replacement AFM PCBAs. The power PCBA (which is screwed to the monitor) was a pain to replace. I didn't bother rescrewing it to the monitor, nor did I cover the main PCBA with the metal box. At least I got my AFM working again.
I haven't been playing many videogames lately and also completely out of the loop of the home arcade space. But I still have the top online score for Tempest, and I did fairly well with Ahch-To Island. Unfortunately, my AFM pinball is broken (again), and I have no idea how long it is going to take for A1Up to send a replacement PCBA.
Oh hey...I just got a new high score and highest wave reached with the arcade setting (6 shields and 1 bonus). My final score would have been at least 100,000 points higher if I didn't screw up the towers in Wave 19 and didn't get killed by the Wave 21 towers. đ¤Ļđģââī¸ And I did not play with my cape on. đ #nocapes
The high scores are with 9 shields and 3 bonus, and the top score is with the stock Arcade1Up yoke. The second-highest is with the GRS yoke. I kept the scores in place to give me something to shoot for.

The Space Invaders Part II stool arrived today. Not sure why it was packed separately.

Happy Halloween! đ
(Nothing is wrong with Tron or AFM; I just had them shut off for the photo op).
