I like it.
But I must resist as I have too much invested in my collection and my only modern beast will be the viewlix and my restored raspberry pie build.


Damn you Jason!

I think at this junction theres no use in re-inventing the wheel.

we've tread pretty deep.

but I do hope I can get around to owning one of these.

That wheelcade would get tiresome on the wrists. Besides I have not room for a set of 4.

I could see that barrelcade doing well in pubs and barcades.

I would've prefered a tube, because it looks like the screen they used is flat.
Too many kids, not enough games.
