That is a cabaret cabinet. so it is not as big as the full size cabinet. Not sure on the exact dimensions, but cabarets are smaller.

Yep, it's a cabaret. It's pictured on the KLOV Tempest page. KLOV is a good source for arcade information. The only good comparison pic that I can find is below. It will be a little different in sizes since Galaga is a Midway cabinet and Tempest is an Atari cabinet. (It's a pre-production mock-up photograph, which is why these look different than the "real" Galaga's.)

Cool info.. I've tried to stay away from KLOV, for the simple fact that I may get into trouble there... But the time has come for me to start looking into games
