Is the transformers guy head super huge? Can you put it next to a regular shooter rod for comparison? Or maybe your hand?
Very nice detail!
I'd love one of the 8-balls for my EBD.
What's the damage with shipping to Canada?

I would love mini 'Red and Ted' heads (one for each shooter) for my Roadshow.
Looking like the actual heads on the game that is, not the artwork.
You're quite the artist. Your detailing is amazing. I would love to try my hand at this stuff but wouldn't know where to start
Wow nice work 40 shipped is a great price! Any way you would think about making a female character or magneto/wolverine for the X-Men pins?
I just installed the Night Crawler last night from Mike and the only problem was trying to take off the damn e-clip. Way harder on the Stern vs B/W games where a finger nail is all you need. The NC looks great IMO! Still able to short plunge and hit the skill shots.

That does look good thanks for posting the pic.
Just an FYI, not that it matters, but the heads are from bobbleheads:

They look good but you missed a picture =)
Explain the process? Did Picasso explain his art? Does a woodchuck explain eating an ice cream cone?
Quoted from PEN:Nice work! Could you explain the process of making these.
I would imagine filling the head with Araldite or another type if Resin.
Quoted from mikeincali:If anyone has suggestions for new ones, let me know.
Bride of pinbot please ! That would be great !
Quoted from mikeincali:Thanks to everyone who purchased the mods. If anyone has suggestions for new ones, let me know.
I would really like a cool one for AC/DC, I am kind of at a loss for what would be a good one to have. I know obviously a lightning bolt would make sense but would seem really awkward for the hand.
Any suggestions or cool ideas from anyone?
I am still waiting for my Angus head shooter from Pinball Customs....maybe you could do one of those
I am working on fabricating a lightning bolt. I already have the design finished. Just need to find out how much interested. There is a minimum production run of like 50. Not sure if there are that many potential customers for it.
Hi Mike. Do you sculpt and create these heads yourself, or do you buy them and custom adapt them for the rods? They are very cool!
I wish I was that talented to create the heads on my own. I purchase the heads and fabricate them to the rods. The first original design I am working on is the Lightening Bolt for AC/DC. I'm hoping it looks as cool as the others. My next design is for WH2O. Also working on a LED lighted head.
Quoted from mikeincali:Also working on a LED lighted head.
Cool! I've seen a few rods at shows...nice work!
LED lighted head? OK!
I am sure as many ACDC games that have been sold you will get 50 buyers.I started a thread a couple of months ago with that idea and several people were interested.Then I pm you a few weeks ago with that idea because people were interested.They will sell if you make them and they look right.Dave
