      @ChoccyHobNob I really like that Intellivision skin!

      I have one of the 'premium' cases from Canakit. I'm wondering about the recessed Raspberry logo vent on the top lid. If you stick one of these decals on there, is the warm air coming through the gap going to cause any bubbling of the vinyl?

        It hasn't caused any on mine and it's had an overclocked pi running in it for a couple of weeks, so I'd say you should be ok

            Oh I almost forgot to mention! 20% off everything on Red Bubble today if you use the code GOFETCH20.

            Follow me on Red bubble if you want to know when new skins get released

            I'd forget my head if it weren't attached!

              @ChoccyHobNob If you take requests, I'd love to see a MegaDrive II case.

              MegaDrive II

              That's the system that really hits my nostalgia center. I'm not sure how it would work though, considering it's square.

                @ChoccyHobNob I'm also curious, are they the kind of stickers that are easily removed if you want to change them, or are they kind that tear instead of peeling off?

                    @mattrixk Peelable and restickable, I have a few I swap out now and then, like I used to with phone skins

                        The Intellivision skin is no longer available. Seems that the people over at Intellivision Lives are pretty aggressive defending their ™ :(

                            @ChoccyHobNob: You think they'd like anything that helps people remember their nearly 4 decade old system.

                              @ChoccyHobNob I have removed the Intellivision wordmark from the skin and asked Red Bubble if that is ok to re-upload. I think I'll ask the people at Intellivision lives too.

                                  I think these look great! I have one of the oneninedesign cases: any chance we'll see just plain colours for these?

                                    @Danorak1981 I don't see any reason why not, what colours would you like?

                                      OK I have a PizeroW on order, and a case. Any ideas for skin designs? I think maybe nes/famicom controllers would look good, anything else?

                                        Any system controller would look great and perhaps even a GameBoy. If you ever decide to branch out from systems, I'd personally like to see Han in carbonite.

                                        Edit: I just have seen that you added a GameBoy to your full size designs, as well as quite a few others. You've really been busy.

                                            OK so game controllers, a gameboy, and Han in carbonite, and elsewhere someone said a pack of wrigleys juicy fruit or a mars bar. O_o
