Ever thought of reliving your childhood with a vintage arcade machine? Well, if you have – but can’t decide which one you want – maybe the Dream Authentics Tabletop Arcade Machine could solve the problem.
This isn’t just any old arcade machine, it’s packed with 150 classic games from the Atari, Midway and Namco archive, including the likes of Pac Man, Space Invaders, Asteroids, Battlezone, Pong, Missile Command, Breakout, Galaga, Galaxian, Smash TV and…well, just about any other vintage arcade game that comes to mind (see the website for full list).
Also on-board is an adjustable joystick, 11 large buttons and a 3-inch trackball, plus an integrated HP Slimline PC to power everything. You can even use it as a jukebox too (via the integrated stereo speakers and sub-woofer). Certainly not cheap at $2,495.95 (around £1,250), but a great way to fill those long winter nights.

Artist Sarah Young’s work includes prints, paintings and a lovely collection of one-off dolls made from vintage materials. The dolls are absolutely charming, dressed in clothes from different eras, but sadly rather expensive at around £400 each. To create something more affordable and that links the dolls with her usual work, Sarah has created two Fabric Kits.
