This I've seen a few blogs recently but I searched and couldn't find any mention of this here, but maybe I missed something... Just delete this thread if so.
These are little arcade machine recreations by a man named Justin Whitlock. You can see most or all of them on his Flickr here:

I think they look very good. It makes me think about trying to make one myself. I've long wanted certain arcades from childhood but not necessarily to play, nor to take up all that space, and this seems like a perfect solution to that.
Looking at these, it really doesn't seem like it'd take a whole to remake an average arcade in any size, there's not a whole lot to an arcade it makes me realise.
On this topic, does anybody know of any one else that has made miniature arcade machines, custom or otherwise? In my searching the only other ones I could find were these pictured below (which are much smaller), the Sega Taikan Game Collection, which they were taking pre-orders for earlier in the year but don't appear to have released yet.
