I really like what this guy has done with this machine but I wish he would be honest and list it as a fantasy machine because the Stoner Junior--technically this is a 120--was not available as a Theater.  Very nice work on this machine although if you look at photo number two he could have done a better job of mounting the fantasy theater fresh candy light bar straight on the front.  The excess pinstriping even brings more attention to the bar being crooked or loose on the machine.  It is straight in one picture but not in another???  The Fresh Gum vendor mounted on the side never looks good on the 120 to me.  Size wise it is just out of proportion on the six pull and they look much better mounted on the 180 or the real Theater.

In any event, a cool looking machine but by no means what it looked like from the factory.  In my opinion, priced a bit high for what it is.

The fantasy is his asking price. Machine is just way to busy. To much useless pin striping IMO. People need to learn that less is more.

Has a $1000 worth of stickers on it don't leave that out of price. I do think gum machine would be better as a stand alone .

Like the color but agree its a bit over done. The gum machine does seem awkward hanging off of it.

He did include the fantasy machine suggestion from another eBay member at the bottom of the listing.

I think that was Tim's suggestion (mznb1u), and a good one!

I knew I had seen a vending machine with another one hanging off of it that seemed odd.  Turns out same seller:

Bob--are you monitoring my EBay messages?   laugh Cool biggrin

I give the guy credit.  Most times you get a nasty response or nothing at all.

I do like the Cigarette Machine with the condom dispenser though.  Seems like an appropriate combination for some reason! tounge

Way over done. Don't like the color scheme.
