Panasonic resurrected the legendary Technics 1200 turntable eight years ago, but Tamás Borján’s version will appeal to both nostalgic DJs and Lego fans.
This 2,215-piece Technics SL-1200 MK2 won’t actually play records but it’s got a motorized platter that spins, a movable tone arm with an adjustable counter balance, and a sliding pitch fader.
Instead of opting for a third-party lighting accessory to improve the original Game Boy’s screen, modder James Channel replaced it entirely with a compact CRT salvaged from a video intercom.
Many sticks of hot glue later the Game Boy (or is it now a Game Man?) finally has a glowing screen but runs for just over two minutes on four AA batteries.
The new Aibo Kinako Edition is the first to feature a two-tone finish on its face and will include two new eye color options.
It will be officially available starting tomorrow in Japan, but Sony has also announced a ¥55,000 (about $374) price increase for its already pricey robot dog, citing the rising costs of raw materials.
