Today’s installment of “Shut Up and Take My Money” showcases these simply stunning printed circuit board iPhone cases that represent the rail network of Tokyo by Japanese company MOECO. From their website (via Google Translate):
I drew a railroad line in Tokyo with the wiring pattern of printed circuit board. Designed with board CAD, electronic components are mounted on board. Genuine board, genuine electronic parts. The pattern is gold-plated.
A 3.2 mm red LED at Tokyo station, 2 mm resistors at 7 main stations, 1.6 mm resistors at 29 stations with 29 getting on/off stations, 1 mm at 1 transit station 213 station, 1.6 mm at a station We have installed capacitors. We are implementing electronic parts in total of 251 stations.
Gold plated board. After mounting the electronic parts, we seal it with super clear resin (part of electronic parts may be exposed). In addition, the surface of the black resin case has been painted with soft paint that does not scratch easily.
All I can say is that these look absolutely incredible. Starting at 12,000 yen (around $100), they’re certainly not cheap… but wow. Take a look through their site for other cities as well.
