I used to love toppers back in the day when I first started collecting, and would make my own. But I only thought they were cool if they were wired into the game and interactive somehow. Over the years I've completely outgrown toppers, but the worst by far are when people put a bunch of toys, particularly stuffed animals, on top of the game. Tacky.

As for in-game mods, I really can't stand the spiral wireform mod for TZ. So many TZ mods are unnecessary, but at least most of them are merely cosmetic and are replicating one of the items on the playfield/translite, which are from the shows. The spiral wireform is really forced and in my opinion worsens gameplay!

I'm not a fan of the Nazi stuff, but whatever...pretend you take take the symbol off. What are you left with? A plastic blimp for $165 that doesn't do anything. It isn't even wired in with LEDs or any type of lights. There are some mods, that whether they are your taste or not, you can at least appreciate that the BoM or the time/effort/expertise to create the interactive elements *somewhat* justify the price, even if expensive. This is straight out of the $5 package and served to you for the low, low mark-up of $160.
