I recently made my own topper for EHOH. Here’s the link with pictures and the build process:

https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/diy-elvira-topper

I’ve decided to build a small run of *5 only* custom toppers. These take a ton of time and the NOS parts I use (Scared Stiff skull pile, claw base and dome) are fairly expensive.

If you’re interested, please post here and I’ll mark you down. If we go past 5, I’ll start an alternate list in case someone backs out.

$475 plus $40 CONUS

1. Toucanf16
2. Blakester
3. JETJIMBO777
4. spookydog
5. Jints56

Once I have 5 people, I’ll start ordering parts. I’ll accept payment once the topper is built and ready to ship to you. No pre-order money or deposits.

Can you make one too hook up to Scared Stiff?

I’m using Comet Matrix LEDs, so it’s an alligator clip designed for use with GI. I think two on the list plan to use the topper with SS. Shouldn’t be any issues.

I better hold off. I just spent some funds on a machine today.
Great topper though!

Started final assembly after getting the metal powdered. The claw dome bases are stuck in Melbourne, otherwise these would be ready to go in less than a week. These were way more expensive and time consuming than I intended, but I think they’re turning out well.

Thanks for the photos and update. They’re looking good!

Some metal work left with the fences. Wiring will be finished when the claw domes arrive (apparently they’re on the airplane out of Australia now). Almost 3 weeks in customs.

Fantastic! Which one is mine? Are you moving onto another project?

Ha, I have no idea! I tried to keep them all the same, so I boxed them up and then labeled them.

I do have another idea for EHOH that hasn’t been done yet, but I have to take a break. This project totally took over my basement.
