SEGA Papercraft Arcade Machines

Posted on September 10, 2014 by OutRun 1986 by TAGGSTA

Here’s a really awesome Papercraft OutRun model from a Japanese SEGA fan. Originally posted by クルチャ.

…there’s also Space Harrier, don’t they look great together.

The first time I saw these I thought that they were immaculate original arcade machines and not paper models!

They look excellent with the female figurines housed in the cabinets.

The model creator has been selling these amazing pieces for ¥1000 ($10AU)

Back in November last year I blogged about a level in Sonic All Stars Racing Transformed where there were holograms of classic SEGA arcade machines like OutRun , Space Harrier and Hang-On.

So why have I bought this up again?
Well …Steve Hird from Sumo Digital has shared his original 3D models that he created before turning them into holograms. check them out below.

SEGA Game Cards Auction

Posted on May 26, 2013 by OutRun 1986 by TAGGSTA

Last year I came across an OutRun Arcade Game Card exclusively released for the 24th Amusement Show in Japan back in the 80’s.
SEGA also released a variation of the card to hold arcade credits in Japanese arcades.
SEGA released variations of these cards for other popular arcade titles too.

Someone recently put up for auction a collection of rare cards, the OutRun and Super Hang-on set were pretty special as they were still sealed in the box and unused.

So did I win this set….no 😦

How much did they go for you ask?

A cool $250 ! I think I will just have to
look at the photo for a
Little bit longer.

OutRun and Space Harrier Arcade Replica’s

Posted on April 26, 2013 by OutRun 1986 by TAGGSTA

My good friend Neil Doherty from my old town in the U.K has just put the final touches to his replica stand up OutRun machine.
A couple of years in the making (on and off) and no detail has been left out.
The cabinet woodwork was built from scratch and several original arcade parts were used to complete this machine.
Running using a P.C, Hyperspin frontend and modified Logitech controls this machine is a one of a kind tribute to the real thing. Neil should know… He’s owned the Deluxe sit down once.
Watch the journey of OutRun coming to life below

And…below the completed machine being play tested by Neil.

</a
Imagine walking to your local arcade
only to see this sign in the window!
O.k not 100% sure about what it says but I'm pretty sure it's related to having the 3 coolest Sega games on the 3rd Floor of this arcade in Japan.

Very nice line up!

What a great collection of deluxe machines! The background noise reminds me of the 80’s arcade atmosphere.

Below is a Japanese music magazine. It looks like this issue focused on video game music including SEGA OutRun, Space Harrier, Fantasy zone and others.
Like the cover art, especially Space Harrier and the Guitar!
