Quoted from Foo:So when do the RUSH cards hit the street? Inquiring minds want to know...
Yeah, especially for LEs! Some very creative minds here and would love to see if they pop up.

Far from it, but thanks for the compliment. There are others who have shared who have done a much better job than I’ll ever have the skills for! Also, should have both by tomorrow. Almost done.
Fantastic job!!!

Thank you so much!
Its really not about the art, but the artist.
You are the best!
Your interpretations are dead on.
For us "home collectors" your free play cards are the best.
Thank you for all that you do!
OMFG !!!!
Those are incredible !!!
Wow, just WOW!
Thank you so much!
Those SST cards capture the feel of the game and film perfectly.
Very nicely done.
First page index has been updated to alphabetical order to help find cards a bit easier in the list.
Thanks mate, that's 3/4hr's work right there. But handy for me when rereferring people to the 1st page and the games they are asking for.
Great work! Anyway you could fix the wording on this card? All these images are from the movie ALIENS instead of just ALIEN. It would be cool to have a card on the left side that has Alien and a card on the right that has Aliens since both are in the game. Thanks again!

Can't wait to get my game - card looks awesome but like your idea of having both Alien and Aliens specific themed cards

These are great! Thanks!
So can I just send these to the local Walgreens or Walmart to print them? Do I need to change any size or any other recommendations? Thanks
Quoted from Coindropper:Stargate (didn't realize the first set I uploaded were not full resolution)
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]
Wow! thanks!
I havent tried to print them yet.
Are the Starship troopers also, not in full resolution?

They should be. It was just stargate that had the issue.
When I have gotten some of my machines, some have a Clear "Foil" like a overhead projector has/had and some didn't and it doesn't seem to matter if they were the plain cards with no color, or if someone used the color ones, where do you get them, do you just buy overhead transparency film, and cut them to size? Or does someone sell these?
Also when I say foil I don't mean laminated, I mean the foil is 100% separate and stacked ontop, and not glued or in any way attached to the card.

Stern Meteor (1979) with DickHamill 2021 Ruleset

Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:Good idea by Markharris2000 to use PP for those who don't have graphics software. However, you don't actually need to use the ruler if you past image into PowerPoint (or Word) if you want to print your own cards with accurate sizing.
In PowerPoint . . .
- Create a new presentation
- Click on "Design" on menu bar
- Click Slide Size on ribbon bar and select custom slide size
- Set width at 8" and height at 10.5" (to allow for print margin) and click OK button (if prompted select Ensure Fit)
- Import image and align to page then right click on it > Format Picture > Size & Properties > Size
- uncheck Lock aspect ration
- set dimensions as desired
Repeat process for as many cards as you want/will fit on a page. To add more cards, just add additional page(s) to PowerPoint.
Typical card sizes are as follows:
Stern | 5.5" x 2.875"
Bally | 5.5" x 3.25"
Williams | 6" x 3.25"
Data East | 5.5" x 3.0"
Gottlieb (large) | 6" x 4.25"
Gottlieb (small) | 6" x 2.3125"
Spooky | 6" x 3.25"
If you don't want to make your own or don't have the tools to do so, then you can always order from me as I'll make any cards (my design or someone else's). I use heavy OEM ultragloss photo paper, a six ink photo printer with OEM inks, and coat all of my cards with a clear gloss vinyl. You can see example cards here: http://aproncards.comAdded 7 months ago: BTW, these are the sizes for the vast majority of cards produced by these manufactures. However, there are also manufacturer oddballs for each. The first step before sizing your cards is to measure the OEM ones that came with the pin.
@Mr_Tantrum, Can you explain how to print, using 5x7 cards instead of full sheet? I'm trying to print off some Deadpool apron cards, and I just can not set the size right. I know that we talked about this a year or two back, but I'm missing a step some where using Gimp.

google is your friend:
Would love to see some cool cards for Defender. Love the arcade game (but I'm terrible at it). Really love the pin...
