Where are you getting all of these cabinets? It was hard enough for me to find just one. How long have you been buying candies?

Almost 10 years... they come up, just jumped in when they did.... the Astros were all from Toronto mostly cgcc, Neo 25s from a comic shop in Renfrew or something, Blast City’s from the New Era Games owner, NNC from Ken at the game room, shipped from the states, the Naomi Universal was from starburst.

I'd really like to get 2 Taito stools at a reasonable price.

I think there is no such thing any more as a reasonable price... Taito still makes them and will ship them new, bet to get 5 or 6 at a time from what I recall

Jump please keep in mind vewlix sit higher and use different height stool from your standard blast/astro stuff.

Thanks brother, will definitively keep it in mind.

Which stools did you use, btw?

You can see here. Black Ikea chair. Perfect height for new Astro blast versus, not perfect height for vewlix but it's what I use anyway. If you zoom at picture you can see height difference between vewlix CP. Image
