Saturn & Megadrive Zippos

http://www.net-you.net/sega/

I want the Megadrive one, but ¥10500 is currently £70, and that's a silly amount of cash. Bring on the Chinese knock-offs.....

 

yes, very cool but also very expensive

 

Haha those looke awesome!! Specially the MD one!

 

That's because they're 'Zippo's', a 'justified reason' to add £60 to the price of a normal lighter :110:

 

No im pretty sure i saw they werent zippo but zippo style.

 

The MD one makes more sense, but... JEEZE I NEED ONE. A cheap one. Maybe I'll just paint a real Zippo...

 

2000 duros for the Mega Drive one? xDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD

 

Cave Ketsui & DOJ Zippos are far less gay looking.

 

Apparently them are real Zippos. Too bad the price is so high, else I d snatch up a couple of each for future reference..might make a good gift in 20 years.

 

Edit:

Correct they are real Zippos.

It seems that you can only order in japan, anyone here to buy me one ?
I can pay via paypal.

 

That's quite too much for zippos though i'd love to have both (even if i'm a non-smoker)

 

That's the standard price for custom Zippos, btw. They are far from the first game-related ones. They're not even the first Sega ones.

 

that's true. I'm sure these are the 3rd line from Sega.

 

how old is this?

 

Aristocrat make Pachinko machines. The Street Fighter II one is from 2005 (http://www.aristocrat.co.jp/seihin_2005.html). There were three Zippo models released the same year (click). According to this ebay auction they were limited to 1000 pieces each and also retailed for 10,500 Yen.

 

Oh i love the md one but even if i did buy one i dont smoke so it would only collect dust.

 

mmmm this could be great if i still smoked.... or if i hadn't bought that vaporizer....

 

Don't you still have to light it?

 

Vapes are essentially just soldering irons with a bowl instead of the solder tip and a glass jar on top.
