Has anybody heard any updates on when the silkscreened playfields are shipping? I know they're on vacation right now, so I'm hoping for early April.

I hate bumping posts, but has anyone heard anything about the silkscreened Sorcerer playfields shipping? The last I heard was that they were shipping at the end of March but I haven't heard any updates. I'm not in a huge rush for the playfield, but I made the mistake of ordering some plastic sets when I placed my playfield order in February, not realizing that everything would ship at the same time, and now I've got a newly hardtopped Flash Gordon with crummy-looking busted plastics.

Yeah, I'm a little bit frustrated. I really don't want to speak ill of the company because they do great work and I know they have a small staff, but I ordered three sets of plastics and a playfield, which is a serious chunk of change for me, and I would have liked to get at least part of that order in a timely fashion. I sent an email earlier this week asking when the playfields would be shipping, and I got a response back today saying they aren't completed yet, but there was no mention of a timeframe.

They're in the clearcoating process, just like they were back in late March. Given the amount of clearcoat that is apparently being put on these playfields, i anticipate they will be four feet thick and weigh 750 pounds. Bracing for the shipping price.

Seconded!
