    Quoted from cfh:

    And it works even worse on Revenge from Mars...

    Technically yes, but slide it into the backglass frame and it blocks the shine of the backglass on the playfield. I was amazed!

    Quoted from Dmod:

    If I was really in it for the money, I suppose I'd just wait for someone else to create something and copy it. Or spend my time on something more profitable. Or bend plastic.

    Don't worry Randy, I think most of us know you are not in it for the money. At least I hope so...

    Regarding your comment on not moving forward on ideas that would be too easy to copy, I think some just don't realize that a new idea can cost thousands to fully develop, test and launch. If there is a good chance someone is going to copy your design as soon as you get it right, it could wind up a huge loss financially, let alone all the time sunk into it. The pinball market is too small to justify patents on most aftermarket parts. If the community starts to accept copes of products without regard for the original designers, it will certainly cause all of us designing pinball parts and mods to think twice about investing time or money on them in the future.

    "more profitable" being the keywords
    I'm not implying that just because you are in it for the money, doesn't mean there isn't some love in there too.
    So when's your version of bent plastic going up on the site?

    I don't follow all the threads, but it looks like Kim's glare guards now belong to Planetary Pinball:

    Seems odd if true. Maybe I'm missing something, but what's the value in what they bought?
