Check out this Fester Mod for your TAF:

While the Uncle Fester MOD is not a new concept, this mod is a completely new design that showcases a classic, realistic, and unforgettable version of Uncle Fester, which is sure to add a classy touch to your TAF or TAFG machine!

This detailed, hand-made, hand-painted figure showcases a memorable Uncle Fester with a light bulb in his mouth. A single diffused yellow LED has been permanently set inside the body of the mod. The mod was created and tested using the chair as the reference point; this was to ensure the mod sits and fits properly in the chair. Take note of his features, giving attention specifically to his face, placement of his arms and hands propped upon the arms of the chair, as well as the robe - all are intricately and realistically detailed to illustrate a proportionate Uncle Fester.

The mod is made of a durable resin; it was created and designed with proportion and fitment in mind (the way the body sits/fits in the chair; the proportion of his head and body, his hands, etc.). It was also created to give TAF Machine owners (who want to fill the chair) an option regarding Fester's "look" (facial features, robe, etc.) - it's really a matter of personal choice/opinion.

I am willing to consider Best Offers if anyone has an interest.

So this is a handmade mod from yourself or some one close to you? Kinda looks like the $75 mod that's on eBay and other pinball parts sites.

It looks like someone just molded and cast the Emperor and made some minor adjustments to make it work better than just the action figure alone. It probably is better than just adapting the action figure, but I still don't know why Fester is the one people put in the chair. In the movie, for which the pin is based, it's Pugsley who is actually in it.

If I were to build a chair mod, I'd make it Pugsley sitting in the chair and have the wires to the electrocution headpiece light up yellow and red, according to the mode. (If anyone now goes and builds this mod, I get the first one for free!)

OK, Miguel351 can get it for free, but I'll actually pay if someone makes a Pugsley chair mod!

I'm working on one right now, but it will be a little bit different. I'll post in the other Pugsley thread when I get it going.
