Any old school gamers out there that spent any amount of time in the arcade as a child will recognize this keyboard’s track ball as being very similar to the one from the old Missile Command game. This shiny beast is all metal, keys and all and is called originally the Fullmetal KB+TB. Looks like it weighs 100 pounds from the image above, but it doesn't. It measures in at 392 mm x 110mm and uses USB connectivity with a 2mm keystroke. This keyboard was originally designed for use in industrial applications where something cleanable and strong is needed. Then it would rock in a retro gaming console as well. Pricing is set at 52,500 yen, yep it is expensive. About Everything USB
