Man, I need a good classic Wonder Woman. But I have a perfect Time Traveler.The other arcade machines I got along with the Out Run from GalacticBasic on Etsy is Sega’s Time Traveler, a weird-ass “holographic” arcade game where the graphics were projected onto vertical glass in this weird-ass cabinet with a lot of other weirdness and lighting to make you think it was more magical than it was. I never played it much, but I love it as a gaming artifact and this 1:12 replica is spot fucking on.
It’s as good a replica as the Star Wars machine I have is. There’s even a small piece of vertical plastic with graphics printed on it to simulate the game’s display. It’s just evocative as all get out and I love it and I hope he does more weird stuff and no really I’m not gonna buy the Tron machine.
For the pic, I basically started with “what time traveler action figures do I have”, landed on The Flash, and then the idea expanded from there, which made me realize I have a lot of SuperFriends but I don’t have a classic Wonder Woman because McFarlane has made ONE good classic Wonder Woman ever and I got hosed out of my preorder for it and now it goes for $130 on eBay. It’s infuriating.
Also if someone wants to do dead on Wendy, Marvin, and Superdog action figures, I still have money.
