Are there any official colorizations done yet for a williams game? Also the cost is more like 100-200, think mine was 120. Also 100+ hours is a bit much, more like 20 hours...

You are getting ripped off for that price I think. At $300 why not just buy a colordmd for $69 more and save the time. I bought my pin2dmd kit for I believe $120, granted it did require 15 minutes of soldering components.
Edit: not trying to be a dick just do not want to see you get ripped off on that kit.
Quoted from PPS:fyi ... ColorDMD is approved to utilize the WMS frames (which are copyrighted) and colorized them, so that was something we had done with them a long time ago ... there are certainly no issues with original designs to overlay existing games (which we like), as well as personal creations. It's the distribution of the wms frames that we have to be concerned as WMS has been involved in this topic for colordmd and has made it very clear to us that this content is something that they (and we as their licensee) must not be distributed (free or otherwise) ... alway open to great ideas from the community, but that was the direction we had gotten when we did the agreement with the colordmd guys.
I do not think that Pin2DMD stores the frames but rather the checksums. I am not sure how the colorized art is stored however.
