TECHNICAL

The cocktail model was a black square table with a woodgrain top. It had red lines and instructions underneath the glass, with player control panels on either side. For some reason the monitors on these were installed butted up against one side, instead of centered.

TRIVIA

The Cocktail model was released in December 1981, selling at an MSRP of $2095. Exactly 1663 units were produced making the Cocktail model the rarest Tempest cabinet.
