Bootlegs #5 and #6

Another couple of variations have popped up on my travels.

Bootleg #5 (Thanks to Corn for the pic)

First is what i will call Boootleg #5. Another nice JAMMA looking single board design VERY similar to #4 but with enough small changes to warrant its own pic.

Small things such as the pair of unpopulated GFX roms and an IC missing where the "10" column marker is on the #4 bootlegs silkscreen are some. Those are just changes to the population of the parts that the bootleggers tweak along the process but they also made some minor board changes as can be seen by the larger power traces that run up where the A-T row marker silkscreen is on #4.





Bootleg #6 (Pic from presumably a won auction. By Cauterise / Arcadeotaku)

Another double board boot, space for but missing (as usual) the PS4. Looks to have a 56 way edge connector but has also been coverted TO JAMMA ?. Maybe earlier bootlegs didnt conform to the JAMMA standard ?
