Sega Toys will be launching the Astro City Mini and Astro City Mini Amusement Center Style Kit on 17 December, along with the reveal of an additional 13 game titles for the little cabinet. The Astro City Mini is a 1/6 scale of the original, released as part of the Sega group’s 60th anniversary project.
The Astro City Mini will have 36 game titles in total, including “Shadow Dancer”, which will be on a video game console for the first time. To relive the experience of the amusement centers of the 90s, you can replicate that on a smaller scale with the Astro City Mini Amusement Center Style Kit, simply by placing the Astro City on the base and slide it in place. The design is subject to change.
