The geek side of me giggled in recognition of the TARDIS time machine from the British pop culture science fiction series Doctor Who.
This TARDIS MAME (Multiple Arcade Machine Manipulator) replica is equipped with retro gaming sets and computers complete with arcade-style controls which were designed and built by Simon Jansen who, is off course, a major fan of Dr. Who.
This is geek heaven on earth.
