Wow - talk about some tough competition that makes it really hard to choose one  :dizzy:

Love the looks of the Black Ops build and all the curves make it a tough build to replicate and shows a lot of expertise. Then there's the modern 2 piece design of the R-Kaid-Revelation with the amazing woodworking and computer setup skills that shows hundreds of hours of work from a skilled craftsman. I Also liked the EVO XR Cade enough to swipe the side profile for my own build so have a hard time not choosing it. Then there's the classic looks of the Araknoid and Popeye build that bring back a lot of memories. So could see any one of the nominees winning it all !

Forced to choose just one -- I will have to go with the Popeye build for the detail and remaining true to the original design while adapting it flawlessly for bartop use.

Really tough one, but something about that Popeye build just screams for my vote. Maybe it's the the tube in a bar-top or attention to detail. But this will be the best Nintendo bar-top build I've seen, even after all the Fix-it-Felix kit clones that's coming, my own included.  :lol
