Replacement control panel for candy cab (New Astro City)

[tiff_lee]

Ok, so my recently acquired new astro city news a replacement control panel contrary to the previous owners 'refurb' consisting of putting a new overlay on a rusty panel and then tightening the retaining bolts too much it creased it.

I'm basically looking for recommendations on a decent replacement, i've found these two online so far:

http://www.hklegend.com.hk/?page_no=3.1&lang=0&show_case=
They sell a 'new' blank or even a stainless steel blank with new overlay

and then there is this

powder coated blank with printed overlay

just looking for opinions/feedback on possible replacements.

cheers, Lee

I emailed hklegend and they said new as of new repro

It wasn't so much that I doubted they were new, I was more curious how the printed panels compare to a regular steel one with overlay.

Looks like Jasen is sold out. FWIW, he makes great products.

Perhaps @alberto1225 can help:

They look great, another option to choose from! ><

and is that a neogeo style control panel I see for a sega candy cab?

I have two repro panels by Alberto, they're fantastic. And he'll do 1p/2p, 3/4/6 buttons, whatever you need.

Yeah I love the look, I need to get a few more candy cabs and i'll be placing an order I think. I see there is also a virtual on control panel! what sticks are people using to populate that panel? genuine original sticks or is there an aftermarket alternative you can buy?
