This Ebay listing (http://www.ebay.com/itm/1983-Atari-Star-Wars-Stand-Up-Arcade-lounge-Chair-/170766401709?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item27c27880ad#ht_5301wt_922) is the most sinful thing I have ever seen.
I PM’d the seller asking if they kept the "guts" and would be willing to sell to me. I'm pretty much in shock at this point.
-
While I agree this is quite the tragedy, its still a pretty sweet ass chair...
-
And it's baaaaack ... and still not sold after all these years.
-
Do a search, n00b... ;)

I thought someone on KLOV bought it. Must have been a joke.
-
I did the search for you... ;)

I was too, like 11 years ago when I first saw this :p
-
ya I was going to say that is some old s***, saw it like 4 years ago.

::)

Yeah, like I'm gonna search the forums for dumbest use of a Starwars cab before posting that POS. :laugh2:
This at least documents that its still looking for a home :lol
Based on the picture (slightly different angle) I'm hoping that it hasn't moved in the last several years then and hopefully some of the components are lying dormant in a box somewhere nearby. Maybe there is something to be salvaged from this abortion.

I miss epic fail guy's epic fails. He hasn't built anything worthy of ridicule for quite a long time. (I check his ebay auctions at least once a month)
-
He got tired of guys LOWBALLING HIM, MAN!
-
We should start a pool of how many times in a year this chair gets re-posted here.
Here's the first for 2012! How many more times folks??
-
Seller responded. Cab was pieced out years ago. All that remains is the chair... and that sweet phone.
-
Should ask if he'd sell just the phone for LOL's.
-
If you hadn't see the Star Wars chair, then you probably haven't seen the cabs of EPIC.... FAIL.... GUY!!!!!!!!!! :applaud:

I think he came accross our comments and quit doing the crazy builds. :'(

ROFL! Exactly what I was thinking.
-
what a flashback. This was the talk then.
-
Why a chair...... I don't get it.
Now if someone turned a tapper into a kegerator......damnit where can I find an old tapper shell?

Funny you should say that. I noticed this yesterday, but it's not close enough to me.

there is some really scary cabs in those links. most of them have screens way to small for the cab and when the screen is to small for the cab it looks so lame. there is some epic brown paint of doom failure in there though.

I say this is a marketing ploy to draw attention to sell other items he has for sale on Ebay-Brilliant!!!

Really surprised not to see the old standby links to
CrapMAME (http://www.wickedretarded.com/~crapmame/)
and
Hellcade (http://www.brentradio.com/Hellcade.htm)
-
Whenever I'm feeling down, I like to visit those two sites.

Somebody's going to come along soon and call you a nazi (sic) for posting those links again... ;)
IMOP, of course. :duckhunt
