I've been working with a neon company overseas to do a ton of Arcade
signs/Logos in Neon. Hit up my website for tons pictures of everything and pricing.
They are priced VERY reasonably.

Atari, Exidy, Nintendo, Tron, Pac-man, Midway, Williams, etc.
Taito, Data East, Bally Pinball coming soon...

I can also do custom metal and neon signs.

These are really nice neon signs. I've bought 5 myself for my game room.

Thanks,
Mike

Some Examples...

don't forget about your new baby

(or is it 2 now ?)

This sign do look awsome, specially if it goes in Mitch Arcade Room.

Taito in multiple colors and Data East signs are now available on my website I dont have a
firm date on Bally but I would expect in the next week or so.

Regarding size.. thats about as large as they can go without the cost skyrocketing. Shipping
from overseas is very expensive and included in the price.

I can do custom ones if people want. For example, I am working on a Flynn's style neon
sign right now for someeone. Will be 5.25 feet wide and 14" high.

Thanks,
Mike

These are sweet!-- are custom ones similar in price to non custom? (I'm assuming no).

Typically not.. cost depends on a lot of factors.. size, complexity, etc. basically I cant give a price
until I see what you want.

I'm just holding out to see your Bally one-- I can't decide bet that and Williams.

Very nice. The Tron one rocks! Wish I had the $300 to get it.

Yea thats one of those large ones I was talking about... they arent cheap but really cool:) There is a star trek
enterprise on my site thats pretty huge as well.

yotsuya · « **Reply #12 on:** January 12, 2012, 11:12:26 pm »

You planning on offering the Flynn's Arcade one on your site?

Crayola · « **Reply #13 on:** January 12, 2012, 11:58:44 pm »

I'd love to but to get the same effect of 4-5 tubes per letter and the same font it would be big and
not cheap.

The one I am building for someone is going to be 5.25 feet wide and thats 7 letters. Flynns has 6 letters
so figure about 4 1/2 feet wide by 14" high for Flynn's.

My brother just pulled the trigger on a large Tron sign....so jealous. But I am about the pick up the Back to Arcade logo. I like it a lot!

I just can't decide if I want more than one.

Crayola · « **Reply #15 on:** January 15, 2012, 10:15:35 pm »

Good news!

Just got Bally pinball done. Its up for sale on my site..

Bad news. My neon guy is going on vacation until the 29th So nothing will ship
until then.

MameMaster! · « **Reply #16 on:** January 16, 2012, 06:59:28 pm »

U stink!!

Now I have to buy two new neon signs.....

I'll order soon-- and I know that you're not shipping for a bit.

Peja · « **Reply #17 on:** January 16, 2012, 10:22:04 pm »

Love the Darth Vader and Aladdin's Castle metal signs. I don't see a price on the Castle sign though.......any ideas on it?

Sweet products by the way.

Thanks:-) the Aladdin's castle sign is an example of a custom sign I can do. I don't sell them as an in stock type item.
The Darth Vader is an in stock type thing.

Peja · « **Reply #19 on:** January 19, 2012, 12:41:51 am »

Must be your products Malice? From one newbie to another on here, welcome!

I really dig some of your products. Maybe in the near future I will be inquiring on how much that Aladdin's Castle sign will run me, or perhaps a custom sign of my jobs logo.

Thanks!

Yea sorry tablet is setup with my other account. I gotta get the mods to combine them. Crayola is my old user name here.
Thanks for the compliment:-) been a member for a long time.

Crayola · « **Reply #21 on:** February 06, 2012, 05:02:50 pm »

My manufacturer is back from vacation and starting to crank them out again. Here are a
couple I just got in the mail today.

The large Tron Neon and star trek are no longer avaliable. To many got broken in
transit due to the size. The manufacturer got tired of replacing them.

MameMaster! · « **Reply #22 on:** February 07, 2012, 03:08:58 pm »

Big thumbs up to Crayola on how he treated my bro with his Broken Tron sign.

You are a credit to BYOAC!!!!

I can't wait until I get my logo sign. I wanted the Bally too- but I had to make a choice as my eyes are bigger than my finances.

Mikezilla · « **Reply #23 on:** February 07, 2012, 05:05:38 pm »

Can you do any band logos out of neon?

Richard_Nixon · « **Reply #24 on:** February 07, 2012, 05:15:22 pm »

Need a little bit of black paint to touch up that Williams picture you posted. Looks like Williams is spelt with 3 "L"s.

I cant decide between the Tron logo, the recognizer, green atari or sega.

Crayola · « **Reply #25 on:** February 07, 2012, 05:17:10 pm »

I'd have to see the logo first before I could commit to it.. Email it to me:

Yeah, that Williams logo ain't right, man.

Drop of black paint will take care of it.. actually just saw it myself.

Mettallica would be really tough given all the sharp angles in their font. Neon doesnt do sharp.
Unfortunately, I dont think you would be happy with the results.

Wow, I just realized that I spelled "won" instead of "one". Damn.

ok cool, thats ok, doesnt do sharp, gotcha. Ill have to come up with something else, cause these are all really cool.

Did a Gottlieb sign for one of my customers. The outline of the G is actually reder.. for some reason it
came out more orangish on camera.

Peja · « **Reply #32 on:** February 13, 2012, 05:23:38 pm »

Those sharp corners of the Gottlieb and you could do your Metallica sign mikezilla.

If you spent that money to buy the rights, you would actively seek to protect them too, no?

yeah you have a point!!! Hehe. Get it? Point?!

Im still thinking a metallica logo would be rad. I wish I could upload pictures here. The hand written one thats on the cover of garage inc would be cool.
