Micon-Kit Part II [hap, anonymous, Jay Gallagher]

This is SNK’s initial adventure into getting into video coinop gaming scene. This is a big deal and thankfully happening.
To see what the coinop games looked like examine the following Twitter posts. This first link shows the flyer currently not on either Flyer Fever or TAFA iirc.

Frank’s posts about this provide what the series of the Micon Kit games looked like showing what is emulated in MAME and what is still needed in order to complete the trilogy of the game series.

I am not sure if it is this as described by Frank Cifaldi: This is Micon Kit 1, aka Micon Block, SNK's very very first game. If it is, then definitely a great addition to preserving SNK’s early history.
That would then leave Kit 3 as remaining series needing to be found.

Frank Cifaldi: Micon Kit 3, aka Space Micon Kit, had two obstacles and two rows of bricks. This is what the three stages looked like, I'm not sure how they played.
