This started out as a 1969 Golden arm machine. I was never a huge fan of the look of them so we did a fantasy Popeye theme. It turned out pretty cool.
I am looking to purchase more golden arm machines if anyone has one for sale.
Thanks. Shane

Great way to repurpose it, very eye catching! Tattoo on the arm is a nice touch

NICE!! I love Popeye. What a novel idea! Maybe do a matching one in the "Wimpy" theme with hamburgers.

Now here is a fantasy machine that is actually better than the original machine... Guarantee you'll see more of these done in this scheme. Very creative and very well done.

Popeye theme is very cool and looks great, but I like the original look better. I just like old plain pattern looks.

I like original stuff too... but Popeye was a favorite as a kid... so this won me over and this scheme would have brought them in... the original was just too generic... One thing I would nit-pick I would be consistent on the Popeye art and colors all around the machine... But this is a great looking machine and great idea... And the tattoo was a great little add.. it was the first thing I looked for when I saw this...

I LIKE IT. The original machine wasn't very attractive.

What are the Popeye levels to beat? Any picture of the backglass to see them? After looking at the graphics more, I would have to admit that yours is better than the original.
