LEP1 Customs · Bartop Kit
The most-reviewed flat-pack bartop kit on Amazon — pre-drilled MDF, your choice of HAPP or Sanwa layout.
Sold and shipped by Amazon. Price checked October 20, 2026 — the current price at checkout is the real one.
The LVL23 is the default first bartop build for a reason: pre-cut, routed and pre-drilled MDF panels sized for up to a 23-inch widescreen, with the control panel orderable in HAPP or Sanwa layouts. You supply the monitor, controls and a brain (Pi, Pandora’s Box or mini PC).
It is the best-documented kit in its class, which matters when it is your first build.
Micro Center · Complete Bartop Kit
The one-box build: monitor, Pi, controls and 140 licensed Atari games all included.
Anyone who wants a one-box build and has a Micro Center nearby.
Pimoroni · Desktop Bartop Kit
A desktop Pi bartop that includes the screen and controls — almost nothing else to source.
Raspberry Pi fans and first-timers who want it all in one box.
Ourcades · Upright Shell
A narrower full-height upright shell with trackball and spinner options at a budget price.
A full-size build on a budget, with big-cabinet options.
