    Smile Coin operated Fortune Teller

    Here's a Coin Operated Fortune Teller!!

    It's in a large modern case, I personally think it would look nicer in a darker older style case, but then I suppose it wouldn't match most people's decor...

    I bought a Zoltan so I can do that too. Just like the other one that a member did here (sorry, I can't remember who...I'll take a guess...Eddie)

    That's cool though, I never thought of removing the head and arms and doing it life size.

    This guy did a nice job on his Zultan conversion He even used the same Coinop Mech that I did. With your own Zultan you could make the same fortuneteller like he did for around $300 in supplies.

    I don't think it is home made. I saw a company that makes these machines. That looks like one of their's. The wireless mic gives it away...

    it sort of reminds me of the Mrs Doubtfire Movie...

    I think that is what makes it scary
