Sega Zippos light a fire in me
So here’s something awesome – Zippos that have been molded and painted to resemble two classic Sega consoles (how’s that for multiplatform?). The MegaDrive and the Saturn have both been recreated in fire-making form, with the MegaDrive being my choice for ‘most awesome thing I’ve seen all day,’ likely because it fills up the whole face of the lighter, and because the Japanese MegaDrive looked quite similar to the American Genesis. The Saturn, on the other hand, has to make use of an awkwardly placed logo and controller to fit the lighter’s form properly. Also, being an American, the Saturn I know and love is black all over rather than silver and blue!
These sweet slices of flaming nostalgia are available in Japan for ¥10,500 – about $115. Anyone who wants to pick me up a MegaDrive gets free hugs!
