Thank you very much your kindness.

All bally parts, so worry about the unique stuff. Plastics, ramps, backglass and playfield.

You are welcome to compare with mine if you need to (bear in mind that mine is the prototype though)

Hi all, apologies for bringing back an old thread for my very first post.
I recently acquired a Bell Games Cobra so i joined to network with anyone that still might have one of these kicking around. Since these seem to be quite rare the more people i can find to talk about this machine the better.
Ill post some pictures soon, its currently in transit.
 
its an ok game but after a while and the music starts to really grate. In theory I should love it as it was the game I played to win the league one month.
 
Hi All,
So i got the Bell Games Cobra, its been a while since my last post.
The machine i got had the wires cut and removed so i had quite a task to get the machine into a "running" state.
Its not quite there yet as im having a few issues still but ive made a huge amount of progress to get to this point.

Regarding the manual on ipdb, i dont believe that the schematics posted for this game are unique to this game, as i checked all ther other Bell Games titles and they appear to have the same schematics. So from a wiring perspective i dont totally trust the info provided. Because of this im asking if anyone has an original manual that they can scan or send to me i would be really appreciative. Happy to cover costs for scanning and postage.


Ill drop a photo of the playfield here.
Also I'll be scanning all the resources as I go through this game so if anyone needs anything please feel free to view my onedrive share. Some items have been touched up or recreated in photoshop to be as close to the original as possible.

Once again...Please if anyone has a manual other than the ones on ipdb, please let me know.
