Something fun for everyone.
The LEGO Ideas Retro Arcade project by creator If You Build It brings us back to the days of quarters and kids cramped around arcade machines.
We have covered similar project previously, like the Modular Arcade, but we loved the approach of this one.
The LEGO project will feature 1,849 pieces along with 7 minifigures. To make sure this is just not a set piece, they have provided interactive functions include: coin operated sports car, claw grabber, super bike, car racer, indoor light bricks and a rotating planet on the arcade roof.
Here are a couple more images of the Retro Arcade.
The overall feel of the project brings you back to your youth. We love how they added some functionality to the pieces, like the photo booth or the rideable car.As an added bonus, the creator put in multiple light bricks to add to the atmosphere.
The only thing that is missing is the sound of the arcade.
