ANN: New CPR EATPM Backglass Now Available

New CPR EATPM Backglass with Mirroring Now Available for Purchase.

Genuine tempered glass (not a translite). Genuine 6-color CMYK + Spot ink-silkscreened + Custom Mirrored (see photo gallery). Beyond a replacement, perfect as a wall hanging in your gameroom, this glass is relevant all on its own. Polished corners and edges, ready for new trim and lift bar (or use your old ones). Turnkey replacement, finally get rid of that old chipped, crackled, or shedding original backglass.

Fire! Playfields:

As noted on the running "ticker text" on the home page:
NEW RELEASES !! Williams FIRE! Playfields - Original Request Group being Contacted Now !! . .

Meaning right now we are starting to contact those individules who expressed an interest by eMailing us their request on the Request Page. These Fire! Playfields are not currently being offered to the general public, although if we have any left over after purging the Request page individules then we will offer them up to the general public.

This is why I did not include a link to a Purchase pg as there is No link right now.....

Does anyone have some photos of what a "mirrored" back glass looks like when lit up?

I guess what im wondering is, my back glass is perfect already and I love the way my custom led's light it up, so would this look even better?

Looks just like a normal translite really. Except that some details (the BBQ grill etc) are mirrored, meaning they're reflective silver, and will shine and catch the light as your view shifts etc. It's one of my favorite pinball looks, and I'm glad it isn't dead yet.

My translite is a little rough, so ordering this was a no brainer for me, but I probably would have even if mine was nice, because mirroring rules.

Been looking forward to this one for a while Stu, thanks for your work.

Please do not try to "compare" an RGB Continous-Tone Photo Process "translite" to a CMYK Half-Toned Screen-Printed Glass....the 2 will never look "Identical"....just take your old translite & put it away in a box and enjoy the New Backglass.......

it is hard to tell in the photos. It describes exactly what is mirrored on the gallery page.

Per page:

ADDED MIRROR BITS: Main title, barbeque grill, deadhead dome, wolfman teeth, drac teeth, drac wineglass, deadheads text, and more

I'm guessing MustangPaul can read but is stating it's not that noticeable. But that's just my 2 credits.

Just curious > does it really matter what specifically is 'mirrored' ?...It's a New Glass: it was produced to replace trashed out old translites & for those people that hate the fish-eye effects you get with a translite....

....again, just curious: If certain things were Mirrored and certain things were Not would it really change your mind on purchasing a New Glass if yours was all scratched up or trashed out or even if yours was nice But had the fish-eyes?

Just trying to get a handle on all these "mirroring" questions of what Is and what is Not mirrored.......

For me, it's not 'what' is mirrored, but instead how extensive the mirroring is.

For example, I thought the mirrored Centaur glass was a really cool idea, but when I found out it was just the studs that were mirrored it didn't interest me enough into buying one. However, if the mirroring had been throughout the entire image including the axe and motorcycle that glass would be in my machine today.

I like the mirroring throughout the backglass so that it's very obvious. It gives it the look that brings interest and excitement to the machine and artwork even when it's turned off.

This glass looks great and I would buy one if I had an EATPM.

My only concern is that to much mirroring will allow me to see the look of despair in my reflection as I continue to suck at playing.

My translite is a little rough, so for me a new one just makes sense. But if I had a really nice one I'd probably pass on a CMYK version without nice mirroring. That's the selling point, I love mirrored backglasses, I'd upgrade a nice translite to get that. They're tough to photograph, I guess you could shoot a short video with a pan across it, that would show the effect.

These are conversions, so I'm sure you just put in the mirror where you thought it made sense on a design that wasn't specifically built for it, so the "what" part I think is somewhat of a moot point. I agree that more is better so long as it makes sense though.

Every time I have added mirroring to a glass that never had it I try to Not "over do it" so that the mirroring does Not compete with the rest of the glass ( and god forbid one of our glasses comes out like the LoTR LE that stern did with the penis hanging down)....I do not like to do a thick Outline of Faces/Bodies as it looks 'clunky'....so I add mirroring flourishes that look like they should have been done at the factory on the originals but weren't....

Never going to happen....Kevin spends too much time as it is doing the pictures for the Gallery, and he just doesn't have more time to do 'movies' of every mirrored glass we do......

Wow. A penis and vagina on the same glass.

I agree with being tasteful. Add mirroring where it makes sense to add it and don't force it.

No worries Stu, I ordered it the moment I saw the announcement, I don't need a video.

If you still have them in stock when I get mine I can shoot one if someone is on the fence. But I wouldn't wait!

Actually yes it would and im not sure why your so uptight about it. A simple question has been asked a few times, a simple answer would be nice. I have a fantastic looking translight already, no idea what the "fish eyes" is your talking about but I don't see any in mine.

I simply asked what the difference was, as have others, to see if sending you $250 would upgrade my game. Is that really to much to ask?

I'm not uptight about it...not sure where you got that idea, I was simply asking a Marketing Question for future reference. If the majority of customers want More Mirroring than what I have been doing in the past then I'll consider that as I'm working on the artwork, but if the majority of people want Less then I have to take that into consideration as well.....

Now, knowing this crowd on pinside, if I were to choose a specific Backglass Title that never had Mirroring from the factory and asked everyone for "What Graphics they wanted done in Mirroring" I would get 1,000 Different Responses and I would never be able to satisfy everyone....which seems to be the case lately anyway.....

So, Question: Since there is so much comotion regarding the Mirroring Bits on Translite-to-Backglass Conversions > Should we just Skip the Mirroring Altogether?....Just Asking....

That is the best part of the whole backglass.

Artists have been trying to slip penises into backglass art since pinball started.
