Anyone have any idea if/when Stern will release any OEM accessories/modifications for the BM66 games?
Their website shows items for Aerosmith, but nothing yet available for BM66.
Anyone have any inside scoop?

Quoted from Cento:I spoke w Stern last week. They said very limited products coming out in 6-8 weeks.
Damn who's doing the accessories Lonnie?
I'd like to put some side art in mine. I'm tempted by the one Tilt Graphics sells, but I'd rather use a Stern version if they are going to do one for prem buyers.
Quoted from Sethman:I'd like a topper...
I'd like one too, but concerned about what the "alternative" one for the premiums is going to look like.
Quoted from wcbu64:I'd like one too, but concerned about what the "alternative" one for the premiums is going to look like.
I'm concerned as well.

If you like chris franchis' art i'd suggest waiting for the official stern blades. Once they are revealed you can compare to the tilt blades and decide which you like best.
Tilt Graphics here. Just wanted to chime in and let everyone know that we currently have two different side art designs for sale.
I understand that some may want to wait and see what and if Stern comes out with their own side art but let me point out a few things.
1. Our GameBlades are easier to install
2. Our GameBlades are less expensive
3. We sometimes give discounts and or replacements to those who accidentally damage their side art. Big brother does not.
4. Tilt Graphics Inc creates side art for old and new pins alike, for Stern and non Stern games. By supporting us or any other third party MOD company you help ensure that we stay around to create more mods for all your pins. Not just the latest and greatest Stern pin on the market.

I would be interested if you could do some powerblades for BM66, would be great if you could make the "fight text - pop klunk etc" light up and flash.
Which reminds me did you ever get any further on powerblades for Avatar?
We're currently not working on any light up powered side blades. I looked into them when I was partners at a different company and then again when I started Tilt Graphics with my new partner. The truth is, is that we found them very expensive to manufacture. The only way to get the price down was to order them from China. I know other MOD makers who have been very disappointed ordering items from China. Especially when dealing with electronics.
Tilt also started working on a topper design for a Batman '66 with Laseriffic. Follow us on Facebook or our thread here on PinSide for further details.

All good points! I think your guys blades look and work great. I wish you guys made them for Stern.
Quoted from 82Trooper:Anyone hear any rumors of anything from Stern?
Nothing but crickets. I thought there would be chance given the new code came out . . . and Cento's post 68 days ago that Stern informed him that limited accessories would be available in 6-8 weeks.
Maybe its time for those of us with Facebook to start asking?
Was there ever an accessories list released by Stern??
Premium Topper
Artblades for Premium & LE owners (but they surprised everyone by coming on the LEs)
Topper Projector for LE owners
Other than those 3 I don't recall anything else ever being mentioned or announced?

Think I shall....the only 2 things I really wanted from the SLE on my LE were the blade art ( an absolute must), and the topper beacon. Was thrilled they put the blade art on , but ahhh, the beacon!!!

Same here I would like that beacon especially since they said it would be an option it would be nice to see Stern follow through on that.
Other than the 3 things I listed was there ever any other mods Stern teased or hinted at?
This may be old news for many, but Stern now has Batman 66 accessories listed on its website (blades, bat signal projector, batwing side rails, and a topper for the Premium).
It would be nice to see the projector in action. I mean for $250 how exactly does it project. Also the new topper lights up? Glows in the dark? Layered 3d translite with multi-color lasers? Meh

Both the PRE topper and Bat signal add ons are ridiculously overpriced. The topper is not interactive with gameplay and essentially a $400 night light. It's lit by LED strips in the base. The Bat signal is static in attract mode and only comes on when the Bat phone is lit. Unfortunately every single one from Stern has scratched lenses which look terrible when lit. I've been through 3 of them. Don't bother. I know of one member here who is trying to modify a much cheaper Bat signal. I'm waiting to see what happens with that. Plus Laseriffic is working on their own topper. I'd be patient and wait unless you have money to burn. Below are some members pics from the Official Batman 66 thread.
