Looks great, only minor niggle (and I mean minor) for me is that the speaker holes are not painted.

And here I thought you were going to mention the different color shirts Mario is wearing on the different pieces of art (dark blue on the side art, light blue on the bezel, and black and white on the CPO and marquee )  :dunno

I changed it intentionally to different colors. ...At the end of the day it's all a matter of personal taste :)

The orange is cool. Reminds me of my old Game & Watch I had when I was a kid.

um, first of all awesome build.

Second  :soapbox:  WTH did you not take a sharpie and black out the exposed plywood in the speaker holes.

 :soapbox:  Why is there exposed plywood inside of the cab, that little block in the bottom right corner, just waved at me, "Hey how ya doin'

oh yeah awesome build sir.
