If I were in the market for one of these I'd have to go with the Omega. The Analogue, although very unique looking being that it's wood, is just not my cup of tea. You probably can't go wrong with either one though and it just comes down to preference (and money of course).

With AI CMVS... Every friend I´ve shown to it has asked the same question: "Is that real wood?"
I always just tell them "It´s real" and I feel kind of snobby saying it :D

I've seen that before. Personally, I think it's quite a nice, professionally finished alternative. IF... I was opting for ONLY a CMVS, I'd probably plump for an AI or Omega, but if I wanted something to sit along my AES, I'd probably quite fancy one of these (in the video). You can get them in white and red (my preference) as well.

Here's the website: http://www.dozgrafico.com/neogeo/

I believe "Distropia" is responsible for making these. Aside from the protruding DB15's, I think it's a cool looker...

Not as "pretty" but the functional features, such as the unibios and battery access are cool.

Battery access and the VGA output with scan lines are the highlight of the model!

Personally, the plastic, AES exterior of the Omega was exactly what I was looking for - something that can sit next to my SNES, Dreamcast, and and PS1 and be easily identifiable as being the rad Neo Geo that I always wanted as a kid but could never afford (like most folks). If it was wood, it wouldn't match, and that would drive me nuts.
If I was going to buy a CMVS that would be just the way I'd think about it. I might add some weight to the base of the Omega somehow though so I wouldn't have to hold it down when switching carts (see Xian Xis post). Also beeing able to reach and take out the MV1C board within because it is largly unmodded and connected via JAMMA is a huge pro factor. You can fix a lot of issues that might arrise with time yourself or even replace the whole board with ease.

I think Xian Xi also makes cmvs machines, though I´m not sure anymore as he posted here in this thread but didn´t mention it. Maybe he´s just so modest?

I still do, I just don't advertise to get business. I have no problems getting requests for builds even with these two consoles as options.

I would do it lol.. but I'm not convinced that it would actually look nice.. a very strange concept I must say.

.

It would look like a rectangular box. But with the right parts you might even be able to build it with dust flaps. Found a pic of what the lego Camera looks like :D
