Grand Lizard club. *Mandrills get in free.*

Just joined the club. Cabinet 9/10, Backglass 5/10, Playfield 9/10, mylar on the upper and lower playfields and except for some flash lamps, backbox lights and the kick slings not working, everything else is in order. It’s time to work out the bugs and get her cleaned up. The pre production backglass is tempting. It’s that or replace the the original art.

Quoted from Cyrus:
First, congrats on getting a GL without a chewed up upper PF. They are hard to find! Ref the backglass, the original one by Paul was nice. Python's is FUGLY and does not really go 100% with Paul's PF art but it's such an anomaly that I decided to leave it as is. GL is a fun game. Just old fashioned pinball from the days before you needed a Masters degree just to figure out the rule set! I love the sound package.

I am excited for this one. All the boards have gone out to the Coinop Cauldron to be refurbished. My teenaged daughter and I have been refurbishing the original backglass to see how it will look before shelling out the cash for a replacement. So far the results are promising!

What do you enjoy most about this game?
[quoted image]

Let me count the ways...
Stealing the extra ball from other players,
The lizard eye flashers and roar,
the monkey sounds from the spinner,
the upper playfield and.....
Magnasave!

Quoted from BobLangelius:
Question2: Is there another art package for the plastics? Is BGresto the option for the Faris BG? I love Pythons's Art - just not on this game...

I do not know of a set of plastics that match the original backglass, though I'm sure if there was a run of these printed they would sell.
Does anyone else have any different information?

Quoted from AlexRogan84:
Looking for a price check / sanity check on the Grand Lizard

I have to say I think Grand Lizard is a great bang for the buck game. I find it a little under priced, compared to some of the other games sold in it’s price range.

Quoted from justler:
Backglass is flaked by the Madrill's hand. Couldn't find a repro backglass so far.

Check with Bgresto.com. They have both the original and the prototype back glasses.

I got my alternative backglass from Steve at BGResto today.
It was packaged very well and arrived in perfect condition. The art looks great.
It took months to get but was absolutely worth the wait!
Here are a few pictures of the packaging and the glass. I’ll post some of the before and after pictures when I do the swap.

Easy swap after and before.
The displays sit a little low. Any advice on bringing them up?
