PlayChoice-10 toppers complete toppers, originals, good overall condition

The nineteen already here are on the topper wall.

Not sure what you have? An original PC-10 topper is a printed sticker applied to a metal stand that screws to the top of the cabinet, usually with the word NEW worked into the artwork and a Nintendo or licensee copyright line printed in it, most dated 1987–1990. Complete toppers are the hunt, but if it looks close and you aren't certain, email a photo to orlandusarcade@gmail.com — identifying these is half the fun.

Three NOS instruction cards left to finish the US Red Tent set:

The eighteen already here are on the instruction card wall. New old stock means unused — a paper card that never went on a cabinet. If yours spent its life on a machine, email anyway: condition is a conversation, not a disqualifier.

Sony BKM input cards for the BVM-20E1U (E/F-series)

The primary broadcast monitor here, a BVM-20E1U, runs with two of its input slots open — and on a BVM, the slots are the inputs: each BKM board teaches the monitor another signal format, and the right pair finishes the machine. These six are the ones that fit. Cards from a decommissioned station or an old equipment drawer are exactly what this hunt looks like — the bench item has the background. Not sure which card you have? The model number is printed on the card’s rear bracket, and the BVM operation manual lists every adaptor that fits this chassis.

Sony KV-1310
