I got my 1P6B NNC panel from Rafael about 3 weeks ago and the quality is exceptional. Very happy.
Kinda sucks that I fixed his incorrect logo for free and he’s still selling people the old design with the wrong spacing.Just received a reproduction Astro City marquee from @Rbtamanini and am quite pleased with the quality. See the picture below -- the top marquee is from Overcome Arcade on eBay and the bottom one from Rafael. Some major differences of Rafael's panel compared to Overcome's:
I plan to get it installed this weekend and will take some pictures. But overall, this is a very nice repro. My original marquee was faded and cracked, so even Overcome Arcade's was better than nothing, but Rafael's is in another league. Also, the Overcome marquee was starting to delaminate (see top) -- the black was pealing off. Hopefully Rafael's panel lasts longer -- it certainly appears to be MUCH better made, so my hopes are high!
- Much richer colors
- The color is more consistent; Overcome's has "splotches" in the green
- The silver is silver
- The black is black and does not transmit light
- The bottom is beveled like the original
that's totally true.Kinda sucks that I fixed his incorrect logo for free and he’s still selling people the old design with the wrong spacing.
