    Default Atari Breakout & Tetris Working Piggy Banks



    They look fairly playable. Put any coin in the arcade machine/bank for a game. $43+$6 shipping isn't completely out of the price range for niche import classic oddities. The price is about the same as an original classic Coleco Tabletop at original retail value.

    I'd like to have them, but those are waaay too much. $25 shipped is more like it.

    It looks like they've directly swiped the case design of the original Coleco games, except without the recessed screen area. And Breakout isn't really inspiring me to plunk down cash for it. The paddle looks to be all of six pixels away from the bricks.

    If they can't play Modern Warfare 2, I really don't care.





    (Seriously, those are awesome looking. Would love to have them both!!)

    I wanted the Space Invaders tabletop piggy they sold but they never restocked them. Just thought I'd point them out. People spend $400 for a brand new anime toy figure with a leather jacket so you never know who are what people want.

    Don't spend your lawn mowing money on them if you're broke I guess.
    Fear your thoughts because they become your words
    Fear your words because they become your actions
    Fear your actions because they become your habits
    Fear your habits because they become your character
    Fear your character because it becomes your destiny

    Therefore: Thinking and nurturing positive thoughts, at any point in your life, can change your destiny.
