A two-fifths-scale inside look at what made Sony’s original video game system work brings back some full-size reminders of something we should never forget.
Japanese toy maker Bandai is famous for its plastic model kits that let fans recreate the giant robots from Gundam and dozens of other anime series.
Thankfully, the kit comes with detailed diagrammed instructions, written in both English and Japanese, that explain how to put everything together.
In an acceptable break with authenticity, though, Bandai’s PlayStation model comes with a scale disc.
As an especially cool touch, the model’s clamshell lid actually opens, and allows you to stick the disk on the spindle inside.
