Very non-standard cabinet for sale, fully working.

"The Chicken Machine" plastic egg vendor. Circa early 80s (had a 1983 dated advert for an industry magazine inside).

This is fully working, and ready for location or home use. You just drop in a quarter and the chicken squawks, turns in a circle and a plastic egg pops out.

$100 in St. Louis.

I think it would actually be funnier to install the chicken stuff inside a regular Mame cabinet.

It is very light and mostly filled with air, I could probably (carefully) knock it apart, box it up, and sent it UPS.

Holy, that's a classic!  I used to get tons of eggs out of that thing back when I was 6 or 7!  Good times, good times!
