Arcade Nostalgia Collection - these are cool!

[Zathras]

Was just cruising ebay and came across these - I was tempted to bid on a few.

Very cool highly detailed mini arcade models... (and no I'm not the seller).

Interesting...that guy's located somewhere close to my neck of the woods....

i rather suspect that these are based on the 'way of the rodent' downloadable cardboard arcades. to make them a bit nicer i think he is probably using those to veneer his models, so not a hell of a lot of skill involved. i might try it myself and see if they sell

Agreed, take them, veneer them, buy several cheapy Beanie Baby cases off of ebay, bon apetite!

Someone should send the seller a question, asking if he has the Photoshop documents to prove he's the original creator.

I thought that too, but he's got a number of cabs that aren't available on way of the rodent.   Also, he makes tiny joysticks. 

They are cool, but I don't see myself every dropping $40 for something like that.

it occured to me today that perhaps its the 'way of the rodent' guy himself that is selling these...

im pretty sure the way of the rodent is a UK website and this guy is in michigan, could be some connection though. either way they look cool if i won the lotto i may drop some dough on them, but otherwise i would make them myself before dropping 40$+ on them
