Quoted from TomGWI:

I can't believe these would be hard to remake.

Have you looked at one up close? I think it's never going to be remade properly unless someone unearths the original tooling.

Quoted from TomGWI:

I have one on my game at home.

Open it up and take a close look. It's pretty intricate.

There's a story in one of those pinball compendium books about how Youssi or Nordman had been interested in those old foil beer signs and how cool and simple they were. Out of the blue a fella he had told about trying to incorporate this effect into a pinball machine called him and told him that he figured out how to do it. And thus begins the legend...

The original mold was made from compulsively handcrafted aluminum, I believe. It wasn't achieved on the first go at it.

Holy smokes. That's a lot of words.
