Sold Williams Defender Arcade - JROK board

[ianw]

Bought last year, off forum member. Running a multi Williams JROK board which is solid and reliable. It also has a multi Williams control panel. Someone has installed small casters to allow it to be moved around easily. Joysticks can be adjusted / set to 2-4-6 and 8 way.

Need to free up some space.

Looking for what I paid for it. £950

Im in the process of putting an FPGA into my Robotron. Was just going to have it as Robotron but since I needed a new overlay decided to get the multi game one.
May post a thread up soon

Love a bit of Defender, I was even tempted myself.
Congrats to the new owner and enjoy.

I had an original Defender from 1991 to about 2005, should never had sold it.
Will be good to have one again

There's lovely! Before I bought my Defender I considered going the Multi-Williams route in a Williams cabinet and one of the Multi-Willams route. (Defender, Robotron, Joust) Those stencilled cabinets like pins always looked so cool.

Where do the Defender pins live these days? I played 1 at Manchester expo a few years ago, and 1 at Terry's ( may have been the same pin ). I haven't seen one even mentioned on here for a long time. Would be great to have 1 at pinfest.

Ive always fancied a defender pin - not sure how it played but im a sucker for those Williams SFX (one of the reasons I like Cosmic Gunfight I think)

 

[ianw]

And now collected

Rare as hens teeth. 369 units produced according to ipdb. There was one up North (the one at NLP most likely) but I believe the owner was made an offer he couldn't refuse from abroad.

Happy days, thanks again Ian
