I wouldn't use a real toaster. Instead make a toaster-like box that's made out of plastic and in the same color scheme as the NES. Like what your pixel rendering looks like.

I think that's adding more work than necessary. It might be pretty hard to put together plastic in a convincing enough way to make it look like a real toaster. Besides, the whole coolness factor is that it's one heck of a case mod. That's what makes the idea awesome.

It doesn't need to be convincing, just simular. Something like the pixel rendering would be cool. Toaster gut replacements have been done to death already. Embedded platforms at first, then PCs, and lately a PS2 (4 slot toaster) have already replaced toaster guts. You might as well paint the NES black and replace the LED with a blue one, IMO, if you're going to do something so over done.
