Actually they weren't too pricey at all. I found the SEGA sign on Ebay for only 40 bucks shipped. I decided to pm him right after and if he could custom requests. He said yes and I found him a good PNG file for the NeoGeo logo. I asked him how big he could make it for me and due to the limitations of his current equipment he could only go about 24" in diameter. The NeoGeo one ran me a little over a hundred bucks shipped.
On a side note, got a chance to process the other packages I got in this week.
Fifteen bucks for a new/sealed PS3 BlazBlue Continuum Shift Extend Limited Edition, new Xbox 360 Import Shmup Ginga Force, Custom of Legend of Almana, the classic Sansho the Bailiff on blu-ray, the latest issue of Shooting Gameside, Arcade Gamers (artsy pictorial of the japanese arcade gaming culture) and the new Megaman figure set.
Also in a modded SD card adapter compatible with the NeoGeo X console. Also came in with 2 mini-SD cards loaded with 50 games each.
Pretty nifty!
Hmmm that's weird! Forgot I had him do a famicom style cart custom.
That sure looks familiar.
Joystick gamers pictorial book. Nice "coffee table" style book with artsy pictures of "neglected" japanese arcades off the beaten path.
Also a bonus ordering shmup related items from my guy in Japan. Always throws in a bunch of little items in for free, including chocolate bars haha.
I saw that SEGA one on Ebay and almost bought it to put on the front of my kiosk. I "best offered" him and he got annoyed, even though I offered him 5$ less than what he posted it for. It looks really nice.

That's too bad he got annoyed. Overall, the price he was asking vs. the quality of his work and materials used seemed fair imho.
On a side note... really stoked about this one being a huge Macross fan since back in the day...
Just in today... The utterly gorgeous Macross 30th Anniversary Limited Edition PS3 game. So much artwork included. Even has a book that goes over 30 years of the Macross games that have been released!

Yes that copy of Border Down is sealed... and for only 100 bucks shipped. Quite a deal imho. ;D
Old (right - original japanese PC version) vs the new (left - "remixed"/enhanced new PSP version)

Lastly, a new statue that totally reminds me of Ninja Spirit. Hence the little guys on the sides, haha.
