Kay Bee World of Nintendo 6-foot fiber optic sign

I picked this up yesterday 3/6/2010 from a gentleman in NJ near Six Flags for $275. It's in nearly perfect condition with only minor scuffing on the outer case. It will soon be the centerpiece of my game room when it's installed above my gaming TV, close to the ceiling. He originally bought it from Seattle with plans to use it in his basement pinball arcade, but could never find a proper way to mount it safely so it sat in his garage for two years. More have hit the market since Kay Bee Toys closed their doors in 2009, but they still remain one of the rarest -- and largest -- vintage lit Nintendo signs available.

The insides (briefly shown) are ingenious: a color wheel is the "program" for the fiber optic bundle, lit by a high-output projection quality halogen bulb (the same kind found in DLP projectors). Each fiber is placed individually, in sequence, around the sign from the inside out to comprise the stunning light show.
