Artistic NES consoles

Destructoid readers, I must say, this is awesome. An eBay user by the name of HelloKitty followed by a ridiculous number of ones is selling these painted NES consoles. They aren't that expensive either with "Buy it Now" price of $125. It isn't that bad when you take into account that you're getting a console too. There are seven different consoles  and each of is fairly durable due to the fact that they're painted with acrylics. Hurry up and grab one before the rest of the internet finds them. Links to each auction, containing more pictures, after the jump.

Unfortunatelly, I need a Wii and I already have an NES. So, no Rockman NES for me. :(

That's awesome. All of a sudden I feel like (trying) to paint some random game on my Dreamcast. Maybe Crazy Taxi or something.

The Megaman II and metroid ones are ridiculous, I wonder if they would take commission and I could send them my old NES for a fresh paint job.

Those are totally badass and the fact they say they work is even better.

Seems the Bubble Bobble one already sold. Added a few more photos to the post so we'll always have these when they're long gone.

Metroid one looks pretty good, the rest can lick it. So say we all.

Wow, what a really cool idea. I wonder if there's a way to mount those on the wall:) Theres another painter who does similar work, except deals with other nerdy stuff too.
