$18,000 Tie Fighter Music Box

$18,000 and it doesn't even play the Imperial March. Where do I sign up.

Seriously, the James Bond theme? wth kinda sense does that make?

From the youtube description:
hese lattice-like vertical wings support and protect the dual music cylinders, each playing three melodies: the theme tunes from Star Wars, Mission Impossible, and James Bond on the right and The Godfather, Merry Christmas Mr. Lawrence, and The Persuaders on the left.

What a fail.
 
How can they put 5 other themes on the thing (and not even Sci-Fi based ones) but can't do the Imperial March?
 
I know of a great legendary desk of these forums that would be right at home on.
 
The price is probably high for what this is, but music boxes can go higher than this one. This one sold for 1000 in 1900 (28k+ in current dollars). I saw some in St. Croix France, about 10 to 15 years ago, that were amazing. I don't recall the price, but it was definitely 5 figures.

I don't think the people buying this (did it really say only 3 made? :eek:) care about the music it plays.

The thing is being sold as art and I bet they sold pretty quickly.
 
Does anyone know if this will be a participating Amazon prime sale today? I don't want to have to pay for expedited shipping.
