Yeah, well you and everyone else who owns an ACDC SUCK!!!!
I think aftermarket toppers are generally pretty stupid. With that being said, there is no doubt in my mind that McKee's toppers are the best out there by FAR.
Gotta admit, I have no idea what a Mckee type topper looks like. But after reading all this, I sure would like to see a pic.
Although I can't ever imagine I would want to change from the awesome guitar topper that I have now.

...or at least a link to his Facebook page? There are a lot of Matt McKees on Facebook, as it turns out.

How so?
I have nothing against them, I've had several of them in fact and they are of high quality, but so many of them are repetitive in terms of showing the name of the pin right above the back glass. Examples: LOTR and Spiderman. Do we really need to have a topper that says "Lord of the Rings" right above the back glass, a few inches away, that also says "Lord of the Rings". Same with Spiderman.
Found it.

There is a picture of the AC/DC topper.
Looks like it will be extra nice, but I love the Laseriffic guitar topper too much.
I just bought one at Expo wished you had told me Jason. I liked the Laseriffic toppers but like Matts metal look. Now get him to start that next Stern music pin by Borg for 2013
If repetition is your concern, then his toppers might not be the best for you. His toppers tend to be low key and a bit classier than some of the toppers that obviously got cranked out in a few hours.
However, not impressed with the AC/DC topper.
Quoted from RobT:How so?
Quoted from jhoward1082:From Facebook...
"New AC/DC topper in the works. Logo is back lit, polished aluminum flames have flickering LEDs facing them."
Here it is animated in a gif image from Matt.
It will simulate the Highway to Hell kind of thingy on the right side of the game.

Right on que, again, his topper for AC/DC is repetitive as expected.
I definitely prefer the Laseriffic Guitar Topper.
I think the laserific toppers look odd on pinball machines. Pinballs have all kinds of art in lots of different styles. The laserific toppers essentially clash with how the games look, why take a sweet looking game and install a topper that looks so different art wise? Tron, maybe, but they all look the same to me and none of them even come close to fitting the art style of the games.
The toppers don't have to blend in or anything but I don't think they should go in a whole other direction either.
Quoted from zippydapinhead:I'd top her
Ha!
I just uploaded the first preliminary demo vid.
Still a work in progress, I want some red flashing horns on top
Polished aluminum, 3-D depth 2 pc design. Classy.
Yellow and red chasing lighting to accentuate/simulate the Highway to Hell right ramp feature on the Premium/LE.
I guess everybody has their prefernces, I prefer Mckee toppers. Did you hear about the ACDC lasserific topper that fell on a members BIB....ouch! I heard they are kind of heavy, but I have never seen one. I am glad that other guys are making toppers and providing consumer choices, I think the speaker backbox kits are a nice product from laseriffic.
The older toppers were 3/8th thick, the newer ones with the tops cut off are 1/4". They are well bulit but very light weight. I have not heard about one of my toppers falling on someone's machine. Can anyone shed some light on this??
