It's not a decal. It's a light up giant plexi, and looks pretty rad in person. It can't go up higher...the wood needs to be there so the playfield has something to attach to.

If Heighway starts to get on a roll and releases a few titles I find interesting, "hell yes!" I'm gonna be buying kits to save space and money!!!

Everyone should keep in mind how much lighting and light shows give a playfield a different look when you're actually playing it. There were plenty of games like Tron, AC/DC, and Iron Man that made me go "oooph!" when I saw the "flyer picture" ...but in person, I LOVE how the games look. I think Tron might give one a good idea how Alien will look when lit....but then you also have the possibilities of the color changing lights - I have a feeling the minimal look of the playfield might vanish when interesting light shows are sweeping over the action.
