Nice presentation but the seller could have added a few more pictures and details.
Otherwise I guess we have to guess what these are. It almost looks like a miniature room to me at first glance.

If that's a miniature room it's well done. The radio in the center is a Zenith 7S363, looks like. Edit: Got the zoom to working, definitely a '363 in the middle with some pushbuttons and/or tabs missing.

Everything in the listing supports this too.

If it is a miniature it's unusually authentic, most 7S363's I see are missing some tabs/buttons or are broken. I have one that has the originals intact. I thought that was normal until I saw more with missing/broken than with complete/intact.

Those plants are real. It looks really but then I question it...but I am pretty sure the plants are real...I've done enough interior landscaping to know real from fake....its looks pretty ridiculous when someone catches you watering a fake plant :lol:

Especially if the one catching you is a phony as well. Android? Robocop? Data? Molten Lava Creature? Space Ghost? Mini Vanilli? Thelev? Max Headroom? Eddie Haskell?

It's real alright. What happened to the GE K-80 tombstone that it's finish would turn to a light green or a light grey? That's not exactly like the kind of radio I'd be proudly displaying anywhere.
