Analog To Digital's Lush and Supersaw Plus
Update: make sure to read the comments. I would contact them before purchasing.
Lush is a four oscillator synth (one of which is a stereo sample) with a focus on modulation for creating gorgeous pad sounds.
Supersaw Plus is a 10 voice polyphonic stereo synth based on the classic Roland JP 8000 / 8080.

Rockets
Via fmasseti:
"this pic is from a concert of a french group called Rockets ... very famous in france and italy during the late 70s ealry 80s i love that Korg PS ion the back ground .. "
Title link takes you to the Rockets Fan Club where this image is from. Click on the image for a much larger shot.
Update via the comments: "They were not an entirely french group. Later incarnations of the group was italian and during a period Sal Solo (ex. Classix Nouveaux) was the lead singer. Their early albums are however true classics and are highly recommended for anyone interested in early synthesizer based pop music."
Update: Check out their video here.

Modular Show and Tell
Modular via amos_joseph on this electro-music.com thread.
Here are the modules I used:
4 MFOS VCOs
2 MFOS LP Filters
2 MFOS Variable Filters
2 MFOS Dual VCAs
2 MFOS VC LFOs
2 MFOS Sample & Hold
2 MFOS Noise Cornucopia
2 MFOS ADSRs
2 CGS Mixers
1 CGS Psycho LFO
1 Paia MIDI to CV
2 Custom Mult modules
1 Custom Glide module
1 Custom 1/4” to banana module
"I used paia frac racks to mount everything and designed all the panel layouts myself. They’re based roughly on Blacet layouts because I think Blacet really knows how to pack a lot of control and I/O into the smaller euro form factor. I used a photo-sensitive aluminum called ID Mark to do all the panel art, which gives it a very “professional” look.
As you’ve probably noticed, I really like Ray Wilson’s designs and I doubt I would have even attempted this beast of a project without his site. His modules sound great, his VCOs track beautifully (all four will stay in tune for at least 5 octaves), and his documentation is just about the best I’ve ever come across….and you can’t beat his prices, either."

Buchla 200e
Another shot from this HC thread. Click image for the full effect. Yeah, I think I could get lost in that.
Optimus Upravlator
You might have seen images of the Optimus computer keyboard before. In short it's keyboard with the ability to display custom graphics for it's keys. I didn't put up a post, because directly it's not synth related, however... With soft synths and DAWs, I realize I can swing it as a custom "MIDI" controller. : ) Regardless, I want one. The Upravlator is the latest incarnation. Title link takes you to more shots and info.
Harmony Central Synth P*rn Thread
Title link takes you to a thread on Harmony Central with a ton of synth shots and more. I'm linking to the last page (page 54) in the thread for reference. If you look at the thread you will recognize a ton of pictures pulled from various sites. Anyone know more about this particular modular?
Update: Nevermind, found it. Thought I saw it before. ; )
