Christmas present idea

[ledzep]

I was looking for images of Xevious (I know, non-vector) and came across this site -

emdkay.net/catalog/index.php

and they have some really cool arcade cabinet replicas, including some vector cabs!

Crap. I just found a new way to burn money.

Shame on you! ;D

Wow, at first I didn't know what I was looking at until I scrolled down and saw the Luke Skywalker figure next to the cab!

Yeah, I've seen similar stuff to this--I've had a YouTube video favorited on my channel for a few years now--but those were just cabs that were made out of heavy paper and folded over and such. I didn't know that there were ones that were made out of wood!

Those look very nice!

I finally received the 2 mini-cabs that I ordered (Star Wars cockpit and Joust) for presents for a couple of friends of mine. They look great! I may have to get a few more now that I see how well put together they are. I just have to understand that they're not kidding about how long it takes for them to be made and shipped. I'm in no hurry, though.

Wow, five MONTHS?! That's nuts! Sounds like they need to expand their business by hiring at least one more person, if not more than that if they can!

Well, I did order during the Christmas buying crush that affects so many businesses. Worth the wait.
