Do you want authentic japanese made stools, or will any stool do?

I've found just about any 18" bar stool is pretty much fine for candy use, and there are endless styles and types out there when you search "short bar stool" in google.

But i really like those spots :p Plus at least two of the colored spots appear to match the control panel (Dark Green for Player one and Blue for the Sega decal).

Or I might just be going batsh#t.

I was at my local wal mart and they had a small display of "yourzone" furniture. Found some really nice stools.

You can order them and have them shipped to your closest store for pickup. They come in pairs, so it's $12 each

http://www.walmart.com/search/searc...y=your+zone+stool&Find.x=0&Find.y=0&Find=Find

I like these because of the color selection and they material is black light reflective so it looks great if you have black lights in your gameroom.

Cheers!

These look pretty decent. I'll have to see if my Walmart has any on display. I tried checking with Coinopstore.com to see if they could source any stools, but I haven't gotten a response yet.

I bought a variation of those stools from a seller on ebay, after finding out even with a fairly sizable group buy, shipping on coinopstore would be prohibitive.

Here are the stools I bought:

Ebay link

Padding is about a minimal as it can be and still be called padding, and the stool probably wouldnt support anyone weighing over 250 or so, but for what they cost, I'm happy.

Those look awesome with all that padding and such, and the wide sturdy base.

The ones TonK got from Target make my ass hurt just looking at them.

So who the heck in Japan still carries the old fabric top candy stools? You guys have provided some great alternatives, but I really want to match the two stools I already have...

I got a quote for these directly from Taito about 6 months ago, and they were charging 6,000 yen per stool (need to buy at least 5) with shipping at 41,000 yen for air shipping.

71,000 yen for 5 stools......

Those Taito stools are nice. Maybe it's time I got rid of my plastic crates.

I picked up 4 of these while at G-Front in Akihabara for only $5 each. Authentic with cigarette burn-in. I'm going to recover them soon.

Ikea used to sell a chair by the name of Sixten. Myself and Ilazul use them for candy cabs. Perfect height, darkish blue with a microseude like material with back. seems like it's been removed from their inventory online. I'm going to check the 2 local stores near me, I had hoped to pick up some more eventually. Hopefully they are on clearance.
