New A1200 Kickstarter Case

[manic23]

So I got my new A1200 case yesterday from the Philippe Lang kickstarter campaign, whilst I am very happy with the build quality, I must say I am rather surprised at how... well... white it is!

It really is pure brilliant white, new A1200's back in the day were not this white where they? where they not a slightly off white beige colour?

It looks unnatural. What you you all think?

Looks amazing, its whiteness is dazzling!

Yer but don't you think it's too white?

Wasn't there a darker, more Amigalike colour to choose from?

Matched with some new white key-caps... and bingo, perfect

No sadly not, there was every colour under the sun, and white. It would have been nice to have a slightly off white to choose from

The NOS A1200 from Petro few years back distributed was (still is) also white like snow. I could not believe new Amigas are so white. Never had chance to buy new Amiga until then.

I think what it is we are all so used to seeing aged yellowed cases when we see a nice white one it looks somehow wrong!

Case looks awesome. It does look a little whiter than original, but it's been a long time!

I missed the case KS -- can't wait for them to go on sale. At least I got in on the keycaps KS!

If I can afford it I love the look of the CD32 themed A1200 case, it just looks,,,,, yummy.
