    Whose buying these $100 lighters and thus making zippo think the price is justified? #pacman

    @NeoAkira: Its not that bad, Zippo's are out dated, and the cheapness of electric disposables makes them the most sane choice, but theres somthing nice about having a refillable lighter, I had an imitation Zippo for about a month before it borked, cost £25, my friend paid £60 for a zippo, and he's still using it, every day (all day, seriously, chimney much) about 4 years later. #pacman

    @Blore07:

    Yeah I've bought a zippo before. It had a nice matte black cover and a little white sherlock pipe in the corner. It only cost $30.

    Thus I fail to see how adding a video game decal to the lighter suddenly increases its value by 330% #pacman

    You know, you can do other things with Zippos other than smoking. Like, you can nonchalantly open and close them while you say "I'll be right out" just before you bust the door open and beat up some cops.

    Alternatively, if you have an aerosol can around, you can use it along with the zippo to shoot fire at the cops after you bust open the door. Although be ready to yell "Give me back my face!" real loud soon afterwards.

    Awesome! I could use a decent lighter and if it's gaming related, all the better...sadly, I ain't paying 100 quid for a lighter. I think I'll stick to my cheapass storebought ones. #pacman

    @-MasterDex-: It wont come to £100, its more like £60, still a lot I know, but theres something about being able to light up while in winds that send other smokers into shop doorways to get some flame going on. #pacman

    The Dig Dug one needs a touch of color, like color the Pooka. I'd be interested for say fitty, but not over $100. #pacman

    I was contemplating getting the Dig Dug one, but then the price drove me away. I'll stick with the thousands of matches that my mom found in a cupboard this past weekend for the time being. Hooray for taking way more than your allotted amount of wedding match books! #pacman

    Damn. If it was still 1982 and I still smoked, I could be the coolest m'f'er at the arcade with one of these. (Anyone else old enough to remember game consoles with built-in ashtrays?) Hey dude in the red smock, give me $20 worth of quarters and a pack of Marlboros! #pacman

    That Pac-Man lighter might be too tempting to pass up, even for 100 bucks.

    Interesting side note, that Pac-Man lighter displayed in the header is NOT the lighter displayed at the given source. What gives?

    @AllHailShake: Ohh, i see now. (didn't click the link before.. i'm such a lazy ass..)

    Well judging by that ad, that's the japanese version. We'll get the localized lighter, there are bound to be differences. It'll probably come out in a couple of months. #pacman

    I actually like the design of these more than the Sega ones. They just look cooler and more stylish.
    Too bad I'm not a smoker though. XD #pacman

    I have to admit, Pac-Man would be a pretty cool lighter, he has the perfect sha- Oh it's just standard zippo lighters with games imprinted on it. Nevermind.
