Centipede Arcade Cabinet - 1/16 Light-up Model

The 80's Atari classic lives again! 

This 1/16 scale model is true to the real-life cabinet, scaled off a vintage 1981 Centipede arcade machine. There are many generic  ‘arcade shaped models', but this version matches the original cabinet down to the glowing coin door lights. Silver or black coin door options offer customization - choose which you like best!

Side art, marquee and screen art is printed and cut from standard printer paper. Print on letter size with ‘NO SCALING’. PDF file is available below in model documentation.
