Does anyone else collect Mini-classic arcade cabinets?

[HODLr]

Here are a few of mine. You can see the size of them compared to my hand in one of the photos. They have great detail and look exactly like the real cabinets.

 

[I and I]

they're cute but I prefer the real things over those

What brands are they as i don't recall many models made.

I only have the Taiko Tatsujin 1/12.

There's a Street Fighter cabinet model coming out.

Those are pretty cool looking. Where do you find those?

I have a vague memory of those when I was younger. Those aren't a new thing are they?

Folks have made custom GI Joe/Star Wars scaled cabinets for a long time now. I always thought they were cool. If 1/6 versions were made, I would probably buy one or two and put some of my '80s figures in an '80s arcade diorama.

I bought them from a guy who makes them all by himself.
JW Custom Mini Arcade Cabinets
He makes pretty much every classic arcade cabinet. They are made of wood and the detail is spot on. His quality is as good as it gets.

He has 'waves' instead of sets and he's up to wave 11
I found him on Flickr and here's the link -

Very cool. Too bad they aren't 1:6. It would be cool to get a couple. If he could put in a mini screen that would take a jump drive it could even have a game playing. I know there are the icade cabinets for the ipad, but those aren't accurate to the classic cabinet design.
