I've actually got a local source for such things, but thanks :)

oooooooooh.  so maybe with some slight modifications to the snes mini case designed above, you could have a matching SNES and Sega Super System!?  say it isn't so.

i'll donate the first CDX & 32X if someone with the skill wants to take that on :)

Got price quotes for the initial proto today.  Just going over a few questions with the folks that will be doing the work.  We're looking at a 5 day turnaround for the parts.  So, with any luck, I should be able to show you guys something in about 1-2 weeks.

It would end up in a completely different case.  There's no sense is having to hack a custom case apart for something like that when that's EXACTLY why I'm making the cases in the 1st place.  I have the skill set, tools, and relationships with manufacturers to make a part that's perfectly suited for a custom Neptune shell.  If enough folks want a Neptune/SEGA all-in-one shell, then so be it!  I WILL make it happen.

As far as letting me borrow parts in order to make it happen, well, we'll see.  I'd like to do these without borrowing parts here and there.  Nothing personal, I just don't know how long I would need to have the parts on hand, and that would likely cause me to make hasty decisions in order to get the parts back to their owner sooner than I really should in order to get everything properly measured and prototyped.

I would do anything for a sega cdx 32x custom shell.

when i said "modifications" i meant "design modifications" not hard modifications to your already existing design once they're manufactured.  that'd be a little redundant.  i think if they were EXTREMELY similar in design, it would look slick as all get out.  imagine a black/grey or black/midnight blue case like you presented before for GEN/SCD/32X and a grey/purple SNES case sitting right next to each other.   :o

EDIT: and i'm totally dreaming and probably phoning this one in, but a PS3-style slot-loading cd drive for the SCD would be mind-blowing.
