Im waiting for my GNR LE so for now I decide to sculpt my own creation to this game with the most details.

I decide to start with the action button, I must say this part is one of my most challenging part to paint, its take many hours to paint one! I sculpt it with much details as I can as always and I really like the results.

The model is the final one but the painting is just prototype. I will repaint it when I will get my machine so I will make sure its fit perfect to the colors in the game.

This is NOT 3D printed its all made by hand and it’s a resin cast from silicone mold.

I decide to open pre orders. and here is all the details
Price for pre order ONLY - 225$
Shipping – 25$ (48 hours by FedEx)

Pre order price is limited for 150 pieces ONLY!

How to sign in?
Just send me message and I will send you all info

When you will get it?
3-4 months will be the first run. Each run is 25-50 pieces.
If you sign in sooner, you will get yours faster

Europe buyers?
Please contact Freddy’s pinball paradise to get one
https://www.shop.freddys-pinball-paradise.de/

Photos really not make justice for the details and all of the photos on the machine is photoshop editing.
Its looks much better in person and I recommend to check here for more photos.

#27 3 years ago

people from USA sent emails to Freddy so just to make it clear.

thanks

#30 3 years ago
Quoted from Sako-TRG:

I have a question about the mod.
The CE version has what appears to be a gloss appearance.
Is your finish going to be Matt, Gloss or Satin?
Thanks in advance

good question. i will NEVER use gloss clear coat to my products i really hate it because it makes the product look cheap and not realistic. what you see its with clear coat.
we are using special matt clear coat as used for cars and high quality figures its dual component clear coat and have 95%-100% matt finish.
the guns also have some minor gloss clear coat to give it a metallic effect.

but if my costumer ask for gloss clear coat he his welcome to get it without any extra charges but i really not recommend it

this mod must be seen in person its have much details thats hard to see in photos.

#33 3 years ago

2ND run closed.

#66 3 years ago
Quoted from PappyBoyington:

What are these made out of?

you can read my first post. its a cast by smooth on resins.
its NOT 3d printed. 100% made by hand and with silicone molds.

#75 3 years ago

So.... we are ready to ROCK?!?!?!?

#79 3 years ago

I’m very excited to share my new creation for GNR.

I did a lot of research about all skulls that Guns N’ Roses uses and I made my own combination and I added to it a lot of details and I’m very happy with the results! So far it’s my most detailed mod and SUPER challenging to paint and it takes few hours to paint one! The snake is special rubber paint that’s have real skin finish and its looks so real!

This is NOT 3D printed. It’s all made by hand and it’s a resin cast from a silicone mold.

It will fit with all shooters and doesn’t change the game play
BUT I really recommend to get this shooter (same as GNR CE)
https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/20-9253-7
and this one will look awesome!
https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/20-9253-KN51943

I will post photos of the skull with GNR LE very, very soon. The skull can be installed on the standard, LE, and replace the one on the CE.
The photos on the GNR game are photoshop!

I decided to open pre orders and here is all the details

Price for the skull - 345$
Shipping – 30$

If you bought the sculpted action button you have 15$ discount on shipping and it will be shipped together with the button or later.

How to sign up on the pre-order list?
Just send me message and I will send you all info
If you bought the sculpted button please let me know.

Do you want to get sculpted button and the skull as set?
No problem, I will send you info for both of them as 1 package

When will you get it?
3-4 months will be the first run. Each run is 25-50 pieces.
If you sign in sooner, you will get yours faster.

Europe buyers?
Please contact Freddy’s pinball paradise to get one. I recommend to send him a email now!

Thank you guys!

#91 3 years ago

guys Thank you very much for the awesome support. im trying to respond to all messages in pinside in Facebook and in Instagram.
closing first run and second run is now open!

do not forget to fill survey!

#94 3 years ago
Quoted from fooflighter:

Compared the skull details to the CE one...really liking the shape of the head and jaw proportions.
Especially the teeth, all the better to eat roses with.
Glad to see the research was done and a lot of the bands historical logos and promotion art were considered
[quoted image]

Thank you. i didn't use any license stuff or trade mark but i did huge research also on real humans skulls and also on the tattoos!
yes the vampire teeth's idea i got because i also have it (not kidding) and also i saw it on the skulls when i did research and im very happy with how they look

#96 3 years ago

#103 3 years ago

many people asking me about the topper and if it can be shipped together with the other GNR mods.
the answer is no. the topper will be shipped in custom made wooden box (case) and will weight 6-8kg!
i cant ship anything with it. i still need to get my machine to make the programing of the topper with the game. same as i did with my hobbit topper
https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/the-journey-to-the-hobbit-topper

skull 3rd run closed. 4th run open.

sculpted action button 1-6 runs are full. run number 7 is open.

#105 3 years ago
Quoted from Pinhead1982:

What time frame is the 7th run liorillusion?

you are from UK, Freddy gets them soon make sure to book place with him by sending email to Anita. Freddy will get them also in 3 runs.
for now run 7 will be shipped around march - April but because of the orders we are going to double the line of production on GNR mods and we will cut time waiting by 50% but i will post info about it next week we are trying to finish all other machines orders this month so we will work only on GNR

#107 3 years ago
Quoted from Sako-TRG:

Holy smoke, I just checked your Hobbit topper creation, it is unbelievable work. Well done!
I found the video for it also on youtube.....

Thank you very much

#108 3 years ago

Production update.

the molds for the sculpted button will be ready this week and we will start cast in few days. we have few more molds to do so we can cast them faster.
we order more silicone and resin for the skull and for more button runs. all should be here very soon.

we are now working on production of pre orders on POTC, Hobbit and JP. we will try to finish all orders for this games this month and to make some extra in stock. and after we will work 100% on GNR also on my next mods and the topper.

in the same time me and more workers will work on casting buttons and skulls and i also got more help and workers so we will try to make it as soon as we can and still to deliver a quality work.

i already order all gifts and packing and they will be here in 3-4 weeks.

because we double the work and the production line we will try to do our best and to ship the first runs to Europe next month! so you can get it with the same time you get the machine or few weeks later so make sure to book place with Anita

i will post daily updates of production in my Instagram story so i recommend to follow and check it

https://www.instagram.com/lior_theartofpinball/

Thank you guys! i really appreciate your Awesome support! promise to give you the love back with the package

#112 3 years ago
Quoted from Troy420:

I have ordered many mods from lior his mods are hands down the best in the business and these gnr mods are definitely top notch and works of art not just 3D printed I look forward to giving him much more of my business purchase his work with confidence

Thank you

Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

Thank you Lior - looking forward to these!
Now ... how about that next run of your fabulous OZ lanes mod?!

we are working on few each month. im posting it in my pinside shop.

Quoted from MK6PIN:

Great looking sculpts as always!!! Might have to buy the machine now....been thinking about it...

Thank you

#113 3 years ago

we will start to upload production updates from Monday in Instagram.
right now there is 2 more places on the 5th run for the skull
and for the button new orders will be in run number 8.
i will post giveaway info very soon!

#115 3 years ago
Quoted from Pinhead1982:

Hey Lior
Are the mods on the way to Freddie’s yet?

no, not yet. he will get the first butch around December. but they are on his website and you can pre order them

BTW i saw that Europe charges 25% taxes on products from USA
IM NOT from USA so Europe buyers not need to worry about it

#116 3 years ago

it's my birthday on 11/18. To celebrate, I am doing a birthday week sale! This will also serve as the Art of Pinball's Black Friday sale, so don't wait to get in on the savings

BTW. i will upgrade ALL GNR orders to 24 hours shipping without extra charge!

Birthday post (resized).jpgBirthday post (resized).jpg

#119 3 years ago
Quoted from TaTa:

Here's an idea for.... How about a small purple rose for the CE and a small red one for the LE? The DE ones seem way too big and would obstruct the skull

Tilt graphic working on Great shooter rod i really recommend to wait for it
nice idea with the purple!

#120 3 years ago

production update.

we are casting buttons and we will start sanding and painting around the end of the month. we want to cast all orders first.
right after the button casting we will cast the skulls and we will start painting.
my goal is to ship the first run of the buttons next month!

we are moving to a bigger studio....
we have few small machines for casting and we just bought 2 Renishaw vacuum castings machines and each one is almost in size of room and our studio entry is too small and its cant fit so we are moving to a bigger studio and the quality of the products will be 1000 times better! this will make also the production faster.
we will still do production during the moving so there will be no delays but i will be less available here in pinside and Facebook for updates.

we will finish all orders + stock for other mods to other game until the end of the month so we will be free to work only on GNR and also we can now do the JP T-REX with the new machines on same time.

all of the special packages should be here next week!

we will not take orders to the toppers until all orders is shipped!

we are doing our best to ship all in time and still deliver quality work. thats the reason we bought more tools and moving to bigger studio.

BTW thank you for all birthday wishes

and this one will look awesome!

you can buy it anywhere you want

Added over 3 years ago:

we just figure that the plungers from Marco need to be with shorter spring.
so if you are going to use the flat plunger that i recommend you will need to get this spring also

Quoted from kermit24:

Wow looks incredible and better than your prototype. Super talent here. Can’t wait to get mine.

yes. my friend test it on his own game and we decide the change to colors a little and also the clear coat progress to match it better to the look and colors of the game and cabinet.
this one fits much much better! wait to see the action button i also add few more details to the sculpt and paint!

Thank you
you will get yours in few days.

SHAME on me and on my prototype!
im always posting photos of the prototype same as i made with the skull with potc LCD and the HMS and my OZ lanes. i must be honest and say prototypes not looking good as the production one. we always do 15 as test before production and we throw them away after testing. we make it to test how to make the production right and how to cast it right and how to paint it right and on the prototype im not doing it so thats why the production looks so good!

so here is example of how bad the prototype looks compare to the production one.
i must update all my photos ASAP to the production pieces LOL

Shipping 10 sets tomorrow! you will get them in 48 hours after pickup! they already booked to Monday noon flight.

i want to make sure all my costumers are happy and getting my creations on time!
if you are going to get your game soon or already got it feel free to send me message and i will make sure you will get it ASAP!

now im going to take some few photos and to pack the 10 sets.

Thank you guys

Quoted from cybevenom:

gotta say they look stunning. A pity for me as they are to pricey for me at the moment since my game just increased in price 2800 euro thanks to some money grabbing EU taxes. But maybe down the line it will grace me with an appearance on my LE. That skull is to cry for so beautifull as well. You Sir are on talented man.

Thank you! same for me this is my first time I'm buying machine not from Europe because of the tax change and i got it direct from USA. im sure this issue will be solved soon and prices will be back to normal because now its crazy for Europe!
the good news is my European distributor not paying big taxes from my country same for USA we have tax free agreement from my country

#145 3 years ago

just got the first photos and im in love!!!!

Thanks to kermit24 we just figure that the plungers from Marco need to be with shorter spring.
so if you are going to use the flat plunger that i recommend you will need to get this spring also
https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/266-5010-00

you can always use the plunger from the game i just think the flat one is much much better

Quoted from Charliew65:

I am amazed by the quality and beauty of these mods! These are truly pieces of Art!! Even with cabinet protectors, The skull fits perfectly. These mods have some weight to them and are very high quality. I would highly recommend these sculptures to every LE owner!!!
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Thank you very much! im always happy to see the reaction and to get feedback from new costumers
yes i made it to fit with ALL legs protectors and also if your shooter not in the right place its will perfect fit! yes its fully cast and solid resin so they have some weight.
Thanks for the photos!

BTW the red shooter looks great!

#152 3 years ago
Quoted from KingBW:

All of the exterior stuff looks great! But what about the stuff under glass? Any plans for pop bumpers or other playfield gizmos? Is a topper going to be coming soon?
Sorry but we are very demanding and want more, more, more!

Thanks! there is 4 more mods for the playfield who is under production right now and yes pop bumpers are one of them.
topper will be posted very soon. we now moved to a big studio with some awesome tools and from now most of my creations going to be in production before i reveal them so around 100 pieces will be ready to ship in same day of the reveal.
there is some mods for GNR that will blow you away and i really recommend to wait!
after 150 sets of skulls and buttons will be shipped i will reveal my next mod for GNR

#154 3 years ago
Quoted from wdbthree:

I'm proud to be one of the first owners of Lior's latest masterpieces. I was torn between LE and CE; ultimately chose LE because of the cabinet art. These two mods somehow raise the bar on an already gorgeous machine. LOVE the shooter skull in particular; really pops w/ the red powder-coat. And: no knock on the CE lockbar button flowers, but: having the guns AND roses there looks simply awesome. Have not yet seen a CE in the wild (like everyone else), so: can only compare to the stock images that have been floating around. But: as a humble early LE owner, comparing only the machine with and without, would say they are simply stellar. Installation was a breeze; < 5 mins for both. Packaging was world-class. Can't wait for the topper to be unveiled...
Thanks Lior; phenomenal job!!!
ps: I ordered the shooter rod replacement that Lior suggested to complete the CE look/feel. One note: make sure you order a shorter spring as well. https://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/266-5010-00
will have to wait a few days for delivery so I can swap out. In the meantime, photos are using the OEM LE shooter from JJP.
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

WOW Thank you!
Great photos! i cant wait to install it on my game when i will get it!
yes short spring is must if you replace the flat shooter
i also love the LE nice red powder coat and nice cabinet art!

Quoted from adamross:

I continue to be blown away by the level of craftsmanship and detail in your mods Lior, and these two are no exception. You and your team are consistently raising the bar of what a pinball mod can be... not just something to fill a space, but a piece of art to be admired and appreciated independently from the game it adorns. Can't wait to see what's next!
*I have the red shooter knob replacement, now just waiting for spring
[quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image][quoted image]

Quoted from darkryder:

I just ordered a GNR LE. Are these two mods still available or all sold out? They look awesome

congratulation on your purchase!
yes this mods are NOT limited and they are available.
you can send me PM and i will send you all info
Thank you

#159 3 years ago

Thank you very much Alex for amazing review and installation for my GNR mods.
video looks AWESOME! i recommend everyone to watch it!

he also made very cool unboxing video for GNR and going to post something very nice soon so make sure to subscribe to his channel!

#160 3 years ago

Many people asking me if the mods can be shipped together with the coming topper. the answer is NO
the topper have his own Styrofoam case with maybe wooden box. there is no place to ship other mods with it.
topper is fully sculpted. nothing is flat or acrylic art its 100% sculpts.

#161 3 years ago

First run shipping is closed. If you are getting your machine next month please let me know and i will make sure you will get the mods next month.
Until the end of the month we will ship 40 sets. 25 to customers and 15 to Freddy's pinball paradise in Europe.
We are going to ship 100 sets each month and my goal is to finish all orders until March.

Topper sculpt is already in production for the sculpt only. When i will get the game i will work on the leds and on the effects.
The topper fits to all versions of the game but we will offer 3 versions of the topper. My target is to make the basic model under 1000$
Few more mods for GNR are already in production and few of them will be ready to ship in the reveal date.
im going to give all of my attention to this game and to make many cool mods who will blow you away! its will be like my POTC project that im still making mods for it, i really really recommend to WAIT! we are now a big team with huge studio with the best tools and materials in the market so we can make sure the quality just getting better and better.

Merry Christmas!

Thank you guys

#164 3 years ago

To save time on packing and making shipping labels i will start to make them right now for the first run.
The people who have the game or going to get it soon and got confirmation from me about the first run should get tracking number until tomorrow and when FedEx will pick it up i will write another update here. Shipping time is 24-48 hours after pickup.

Enjoy your Holiday!

#169 3 years ago
Quoted from KevinG:

Can someone explain why you need the shorter spring for this.

Because 20% of the long spring goes inside the round knob and on the flat one its not. Check the spring on the round knob and you will see it. Its not changing anything with the gameplay

#171 3 years ago

We are in lockdown again but i was smart and bought all the things i need before but 50% of the workers not working and we are not working full day. we will still work to make and ship all in time but there can be a minor option for 2 weeks delay for second run. we hope this will be our last lock down in my country.

Shipping time! shipping now 40 pieces. you will get them until Tuesday - Wednesday. FedEx picking it up at Monday morning and its booked to Monday flight.
15 More sets going to Freddy pinball paradise in Europe and will be ready to purchase from 10 of January.

Happy new year! Thank you very much for your support and love. we are planning on few awesome stuff for next year!

i really LOVE to work on those mods and to design more mods for it. there is no limits on the details and options to this game. finally a game like POTC and i didn't got it yet LOL! the third mod and the topper is sooooo AWESOME

Thank you!

Again make sure to vote ONLY for POTC HMS

#185 3 years ago

packages just left in the morning and it booked to the flight in 1 hour. you should get it in 24-48 hours so the tracking numbers you got working now.
next run we will ship ONLY the sculpted buttons. the workers that painting the skulls are not working in the studio for those two weeks because of quarantine. and i don't want to send to people different product, quality is in the top priority. month after we will ship 50 - 100 sets.
mods for Freddy pinball paradise will arrive later this month and not as i plan.
its very hard to work right now in the lockdown but we are doing our best.

BTW we cant make ONLY buttons and skulls for GNR so after finishing all orders we will take some brake and we will back to them later this year.
we have many other creations. we are working on 3 others mods for GNR and on topper and we also working on 2 mods for POTC and another 2 for Hobbit. all new mods will be ready to ship when i post them because they are already in production right now. we are trying to avoid pre-orders. we are also going to bring back some old mods like OZ lanes and more sculpts for WOZ and full set of Indiana jones sculpts and some mods for medieval madness but our main attention is GNR.

so. new orders from February or March for the skull and action button will be shipped in 4 months after you place the order. all old orders before February will be shipped on time and my plan is to ship all orders until March - April so if you want to get these mods i really recommend to get them now.

Me and my team wants to say Thank you for your support and have a great week

Quoted from SlimNebuloid:

I would like to order the 2 mods currently available. Can you send me the info or an invoice?

PM sent.

#195 3 years ago

There is few people who asking me when they will get the mods. as i said 2-4 months from when you place the order.
from Friday our lockdown got worse and there is no way to go to the studio or to go to my workers all is shut down so this month there is no production and no shipping's so all will be delayed by 1 month. i have few skulls at home and workers toke some buttons to paint at home so we still working on the next run but we cant clear coat them because we do this only in the studio. also we cant cast at home because we are using a big and professional machine to do it in our studio.

next run (February) we will ship around 50-100 buttons only to distributors and to people who bought just the button.
we will also ship 15 skulls to Freddy's pinball paradise + skulls for people who bought just the skull in the first runs

after that (March) we will ship 50-150 sets.

we will try to ship all orders until April - May include new orders.

in the same time im working from home, im sculpting and working on new GNR mods and also doing quality check on my POTC and Hobbit new mods who is ready to ship in the reveal day and im also working on JP signs and JP T-REX

its looks like its going to be the last lock down in our country and i will do my best to go somehow to the studio and do clear coat so i can ship 15 skulls and 50-100 buttons this month.

you can still order the skull or the button but shipping time for new orders is 2-4 Months.

New GNR mods are also in production right now and they will be ready to ship in the reveal day
GNR topper will be pre-order and not ready to ship when i post it because we are making a special circuit board for it and its takes time but we almost have 1 who is ready to share.

we are trying to do our best and ship it ASAP but if you saw my Instagram story last week you saw how each skull and button was made by hand and we want to make it as best as we can and not as fast as we can. Quality is our the top top priority!

its funny that im getting my GNR in few days and i don't have skull and button for my self lol

Thank you very much for your patience

#197 3 years ago
Quoted from f3honda4me:

As someone who bought the original JJ POTC HMS mod and was in the very last run, don't worry Lior will get your orders to you! When I bought mine it was a 6 month lead time, and he finished them all early, and I got it within about 4-5 months. It's a long time to wait and have paid for something, but it is SO worth the wait! His pieces are amazing. Happy to be a repeat customer and I ordered both GNR pieces.

Thank you. yes you was in the last run and with HMS it was so crazy with lockdowns and i did it only by myself without any help from workers

Great game and super fun! i love how each JJP game is different experience.
Tip for people who going to install the skull, make sure your shooter plate is straight. mine was little off and the skull was looking weird.
if you saw my POTC HMS you are going to love one of my next creation to this game. super interactive mod and also many many cool sculpts i really recommend to WAIT!

The topper is INSANE! i will start to program it very soon

#206 3 years ago
Quoted from f3honda4me:

If you saw his one of a kind hobbit topper, then yea who knows what this might be

its better than hobbit topper.
the led and fiber optic effects is one of a kind. never made before. and this topper is most detailed topper ever.

#208 3 years ago

Great news!
i got hired to a TV show in my country (big brother) to make some stuff and i told them i cant go to the studio because of my lockdown so they gave me a special approval that i can show to the police checkpoints. so i got it for 3 days and i already finish the work to the TV show yesterday. so i toke that chance and i got to the studio early in the morning and did some clear coat to 20 buttons and i also have some skulls from last week that are ready to paint!

im going to ship this week orders to people who order only the button.
all other shipment will be same as i said in post #195
i also made some JP molds and also start to work on new mold for the skulls
i will go to the studio tomorrow also to keep finishing the molds and to clear coat more buttons im also going to cut the base for the topper in our CNC
machine. after that im back to the lockdown but e are still painting from home

fully load up your car and paint those puppies at home for people who ordered. I am very curious to see what you tought up for the topper. Glad you got the chance to go to your studio.

me and my workers painting right now around 150 buttons and 40 skulls. we can clear coat them only in studio.
we can only paint at home. casting, sanding, first layer paint / clear coat, molding is only at the studio. at home we paint right now and im also sculpting from home or studio.

will maybe sneak peak part of the topper soon

#213 3 years ago

just sent tracking numbers. i will contact FedEx tomorrow to see when they can pick it up. will pack all tomorrow.
Few people ask me to add also the skull so if you order only the button and wants to get also the skull please tell me ASAP

Thanks

#218 3 years ago
Quoted from Galooch:

liorillusion Now that you are growing a bit, when things settle down you should do a “making of” video of your process. I love those types of behind the scenes that show your artistic and thought process and how you get to the final product. I’m sure many of your other customers would be interested. Perhaps showing other mods that didn’t quite make the cut up to your standards would be neat too.
Thanks again for the great mods and customer service. Stay safe.

im posting it all time in my Instagram. i will post more when we are back from the lockdown. maybe tomorrow i will post a video painting part of the topper.
for the new POTC and Hobbit mods i made a making off video from sculpting to the final product.

oh wow you can ask my close friends, i have a desk full of pinball creations that never got into production because they was complicated to make or didn't got license. i also have many sketches of mods that i never made. i also have very nice video of how i program the hobbit topper.

Thank you

BTW i love your skull, its the first one i paint. maybe one day i will ask for it back

Quoted from fooflighter:

That is pretty cool, how's the clearance from the skull on a full plunge? Any contact

with the right spring it will never touch the skull

Quoted from Jimmyhonda:

Lior, can you post pics here, as well on your Facebook or Instagram? Thanks brother.

yes sure. next time

#239 3 years ago

when i was in the studio i cast more buttons and toke some tools so i can sand them at home. they are ready to get first coat and after to be painted by hand!
these are the buttons that going to be shipped in March. February shipment (distributors only) waiting for clear coat when we will be back from the lockdown and also need to finish painting the skulls who going to be ready next week.

we are doing our best to work from home also with the lockdown and i wish the lockdown will end soon.
This is ALL made by hand!

Quoted from cybevenom:

Damn Lior, you are sure trying your best to get a jumpstart for when your lockdown ends. I am saving like crazy to get these mods and i read you are going for a bullet shooterrod mod as well. If my machine did not increased 2800 euros in price because of the tariff i would have ordered them allready but seeing this picture gives me hope i can order them later this as well. Wondering what your topper is gonna look like. BTW voted for your HMS mod for Twippy's. Hope you will win it. It is stunning as well like the other mods i saw photo's of for Potc. Craftsmanship like this should get rewarded.

Thank you
yes you can order them later only 2 mods for GNR going to be limited but skull and button we are still making production.
the one in the photos going to be shipped in March or before to customers. and we have to make more for April shipment
yes im making also shooter rod but this mod will be cheap.

Quoted from screaminr:

Would love to see some pictures of the topper , I don't have Facebook or Instagram .

i post only 10% of the back of the topper. im painting the whole topper right now and we will post photos soon.

#244 3 years ago
Quoted from screaminr:

It would be great if you simplified the ordering process .

#250 3 years ago
Quoted from kidchrisso:

I would think a gun shooter rod for the skull would be killer.

i was trying to do it but too big and out of proportion. it was hiding all the beauty of the skull and with so weak spring on the game with big sculpt is not good at all on the shooter. we will also not going to make GNR stamp on the back of the bullet because we respect license

update on production and lockdown

if you listen to the news my country just increase the lockdown to 10 days more. the situation in my country is crazy.
im working next week on a TV show again and i will have a special approval to go out for 2 days so i will send my worker to there and i will go to the studio to do coating for 100 buttons and 15 skulls and i will start to cast 30-50 skulls and i will take them home for sanding. this lockdown is super annoying and they also closed the airport so im glad that im working with FedEx.

there is very important update about new orders and i will post info about it soon

Topper update

i was thinking to make 3 versions of the topper. one under 1000$ and others have some extra features and extra sculpts.
after i got the game i decide to pass on the cheap option because its not looking good and the amount of time that im working on it doesn't worth it.
so we will do only 2 versions. The topper have many leds and many effects and i need to program each song and each mode and programing of something like that will take months. this topper will be the first topper that using PC to run it i can also tell the topper will weight around 25 LBS (just for the sculpts). the topper will have WIFI updates and also some cool features on the game and it will be also a base system for my feature mods. with this PC we can know any switch or led or music on that game and the level of topper that so interactive with the game i can promise you its never done before!

Thank you guys

#254 3 years ago
Quoted from cybevenom:

If your topper will be that interactive CE owners will take down their soundbartoppers to install yours.

I'm sure
And mine can still work with sound bar on top of the game

#257 3 years ago

not right now. its a lot of work and i will show it only when it will be fully painted

#259 3 years ago
Quoted from TaTa:

I have a CE as well. Will this be able to be mounted in front of the soundbar?

yes but the CE sound bar needs to go all the way to the back

we decide to split the work and to make it smart. so workers will keep work from home and studio on painting and me and my team will cast and make clear coat and first layer all day. those things we can do ONLY in the studio. so from now and until the end of the month we will do only casting for all orders + some stock so if there will be lockdown again there will be no delay because we can sand and paint from home. but for casting we are using very big and professional machines that we have only in the studio and we have a painting room at the studio. im still taking parts to sand from home when i have free time in the weekend. and we are also sanding in the studio.

we already did today coating for all of the mods who was ready for clear coat. 50 buttons and 15 skulls that will be shipped to Freddy's pinball paradise this week! net shipment to Freddy will be in March - April

we also start to sand the JP signs because people waiting for this really long time and it MUST be shipped this month!
im also working on the same time on molds because mold doesn't stay forever. so i decide to make molds also for the next batches of the skulls and the buttons and also to 3 more new GNR mods and the GNR shooter rod. we will start casting all those mods together next week with all other GNR and JP signs orders.

so if all will work as my plan. we will finish shipping all orders of GNR skull and GNR button until April - May (include distributors and new orders) next shipping will be only in March.
Shooter rods and new 3 GNR mods around April - July
JP signs all orders this month.
JP T-REX we will start mold and casting next month because its complicated mod to cast and we will finish all orders until June or maybe before.

because we are now selling only with Distributors most orders for new mods will be ready to ship in the same day.
we have 2 new hobbit mods that we work on them before many months and they will be for sale and ready to ship next month

my country is in really bad situation so im sure there will be another lockdown soon but we are working hard to avoid another delay

During the lockdown i had a lot of time at home so i sculpt many new creations. GNR topper will be revealed this month (i hope) but to program it it will take us around 3 months. i really really recommend to wait!

Me and my team wants to say Thank you very much for your understanding and patience. we are trying to do all as fast as we can but the quality is in our top priority. its all made by hand and takes many hours to make one and we giving a lot of attention to quality and details.

i will post photos from production this week

#272 3 years ago

Quoted from KingBW:

I got a sneak peak at Lior's bullet shooter rod and it really looks good. He has them for sale at little shop of games already. The reveal should be coming soon. It fits the theme with the hole in the skull. You will like it. Psst, look at his Instagram page.

yes that is correct.
the Bullet shooter rod is ready and we are casting them right now. its looks great and soooo fun to shoot with.
this bullet shooter is not painted, they are going to get a real gold plating to make sure it looks real and good as much as we can. it will be shiny like chrome.
i will share photos of the prototype before the gold plating and more info soon. you can order it right now at little shop of games

So just confirming. If I want your GnR topper I need to go through Little Shop in Florida?

Correct. he will sell the toppers. you can book place right now

#290 3 years ago
Quoted from Skyemont:

I would like to see this as well.

No photos yet. im spending most of my time on production on mods that people order. will post photos after next shipment.

#293 3 years ago
Quoted from kumanaga:

Can't wait to see the topper... I don't even have to see it to want to order it. Currently it is listed as "coming soon" and you cannot pre-order yet.

correct. we need to figure first the cost and production time its really complicated topper and it will take time.
you can email to little shop of games or to join to the news later. topper is limited!

Quoted from TaTa:

[quoted image]

Thanks! i will post photos f it soon. again the one you see is prototype with paint and not with plating as the original will be.

BTW the bullet shooter is EXCLUSVE item for Little shop of games! they will sell it Worldwide also to Europe and Australia. they are the ONLY sellers. more info soon!

#295 3 years ago
Quoted from TommyGavin:

Ordered the amazing looking shooter rod. Can't wait to see this topper creation you come up with. You are a very talented artist!

Thank you very much
its not the final version. there is more details on the back of it and on the other side.

#298 3 years ago
Quoted from Skyemont:

So when will these be available?

the final design this week.
the final design with the gold plating we will show it only when it will be ready to ship. we are doing gold plating not in our studio because we don't have the tools for that. as always photos that i show here are prototypes. and as you see the final product looks much much better

#300 3 years ago
Quoted from rrosenhouse:

I've already ordered in thru Little Shop of Games. What is the best way to clean this?
Rob

if need. you can clean it with novus 1 or any glass cleaner
BTW we are doing coating after the plating to avoid finger prints and because gun bullet is not that shiny.

#303 3 years ago
Quoted from PeterG:

Hmm that will set us back another 25% in europe and 6 weeks of additional waiting since postal from US to europe is really bad these days. Or you pay another $50 to get DHL premium.

No its not. Value of package to europe will be low. This also made not in USA so no tax on that. Shipping time is 20 days for normal shipping so its not bad.

#305 3 years ago
Quoted from PeterG:

would you pay the 25% if I get taxed on it

yes you can order and send me invoice if you get it. you can also contact your distributor to ask them to order one for you

#307 3 years ago
Quoted from Jimmyhonda:

If there is a clearcoat on top of the plating, use Playfield wax to clean and protect it. This will protect it from the coating breaking down from touching it constantly. This is what pinballplating.com recommends. Good luck!

The coating will not brake down its not normal clear coat. this company do it for over 50 years, i trust them
we made many products with them that people use daily in theme parks and there is 0 damage. you can check IGT slot machines that use the same thing...
its NOT the same plating that you do for metal and for pinball parts

#310 3 years ago
Quoted from cybevenom:

Aww. Darnit. I was checking Freddy's website feverishly for it. This is kind of a bummer for us Europeans again. Heavy shipping costs from the USA and a nice 25% Tariff tax over the overall price including shipping.

Do not forget that your distributor adding shipping and taxes + vat to the original price of the product.
GNR action button in USA is 250$ shipped
GNR action button in Europe is 266 Euros include vat and tax (322$) not shipped
so actually it will cost you less if you buy the shooter rod from USA. shipping is not high at all and value on package is lower.

to ship this kind of weapon looking pieces from my country to outside i need to use special shipping that cost a lot and i need to get security approve to the package that also cost a lot of money. so USA is the biggest market and i decide to do it only to USA. to ship this weapon looking pieces from USA to Europe and Australia is not an issue. it will be same for my topper because it have 2 guns in real scale that looks 100% real.

BTW this is also why im not posting photos of it yet. im waiting for approve from my airport security about it. for now they said the design looks ok (i made over 20 versions!) but still waiting for approve

at the end. this mod will cost you less if you will order it from little shop of games just 2 weeks more for shipping.
this is the only product that you can buy from USA if you are in Europe and Australia. for other mods you can buy it ONLY from your distributor because little shop of games will not ship it to you if its not Exclusive mod.

#312 3 years ago
Quoted from cybevenom:

Thanks Lior for your added information. I just ordered the shooter rod at little shop of games. I want it and am sure it will not dissappoint. I get my GNR LE this friday so it fits that one wait is over and another one starts. Now to save some more cash for the skull and actionbutton. These i can order from Freddy in Germany later on.

i will take care about your order! Thank you!
Congratulation its a great game! i wish i had time t play on it more!
Freddy should get the parts on website in Tuesday

Quoted from Bmanpin:

Second to none! Amazing work and detailed. Ordered yesterday! I'm on a mission to get all of your mods for GnR.

Thank you. me and little shop of games doing something very nice that any orders of GNR mods will get. trust me you will want to collect them all. very nice gift! so your mission is to collect all gifts

#319 3 years ago
Quoted from cybevenom:

ordered mine yesterday and damn i am not regretting it. this will look killer on my LE.

Thank you! i promise the final product will look much much better!

BTW the skull and the button on my game are the prototypes also so the final product looks much better!

#323 3 years ago

I got few questions so i will answer them here.

Did it fit all versions and also to CE?
Yes it is it fit to any pinball machine.

Did it comes with the right spring for CE and for my GNR skull?
Yes you will get a shorter spring

You can ship it with my other mods?
No sorry. its shipped from USA

Why this tip color for the bullet?
Why not only the tip of the bullet?
Watch on the small screen on playfield during attract mode. there is a very cool clip about flying bullet. watch it and you will understand all. also about the proportion. trust me im doing a huge research before im sculpting something and im doing my best

Thank you very much for your love and support!

I am excited to share my new GNR mod with everyone. This is my first playfield mod for GNR and there are more coming in the near future, so stay tuned. I started with the backboard because this area needed some more attention to detail, so I decided to make it look like a real stage. The speakers are solid resin cast and hand painted. The speakers looks so real and look so much better in person! Super easy to install and its a perfect fit! It is super cool to see the ball come out from the Guitar amp!

The set includes 4 kinds of speakers
VUK Guitar amp
Target speaker set
Servo cover speaker
Speaker wall

This mod is ONLY sold as a set, there is no option to buy single speakers

This mod is limited to 555 pieces worldwide!
LIMIT ONE PER CUSTOMER PLEASE

im very happy to say that we finally finish the production for ALL GNR orders + some stock. we finish also the bullets and the speakers.
now im checking by myself each product to check quality and if its fit good. im packing them and after that they are going to be shipped.
we still need to attach the rods to the bullets so shooter rods will be shipped in May and for speakers we are waiting for the packing that should be ready also in middle of May.

i still have the list of all orders but few surveys got deleted by mistake.

Few changes and updates.
we got a lot of bad feedbacks about FedEx shipping and they also raise the prices so we decide to change company to DHL so i should get account next week and i will be back to ship all orders!

we are changing from normal company to LTD with trademark and we also have big patent about pinball thats running right now and there is a lot of annoying bureaucracy and its really taking most of my time. so i decide to take few weeks off. production is still running shipping is still running and there is a lot of new mods i will just be less in here and customer service. but i have my team to respond to you if need

what is in production right now?
our first priority is the Jurassic Park T-REX there is a lot of people thats waiting for it
we are ruining now 3 mods on the line for GNR. one of them is the bumper replacement (its not just a cover) and the Topper that we will reveal when i will be back. its takes a lot of time to program it.
we also have 2 Hobbit mods in the production and we also have my own patent to pinball that im really proud about it and i will share info very soon. you are going to LOVE it and its will fit to any game!
we are also running production of mods for 2 games that one of the pinball companies didn't reveal yet
and some old mods going to be back!

Thank you very much for all of your support and your patience. it was a huge craziness to make all this stuff so thanks a lot to my team and i really need some time to my personal stuff

Thanks!

Quoted from cybevenom:

WOW!!! So not regretting this mod. Looking forward to putting it in my game. Gonna be ordering my skull and button surrounding with freddy as well as soon as it is available on his site.
Looking out for the Topper reveal although it might be to pricey for me. Then again that was what i thought of the skull as well. Dammit why do it always have to have expensive hobbies?

I'm packing Freddy's order right now. he will get it in a week or two.

Hello everyone. if you read international news you can see that my country and my area is under a HUGE rocket attack. things are very crazy and very scary.
Just yesterday we had 150 rockets in 10 minutes to my area and last night between 2-5 AM at night we had 850 rockets.it's a very difficult and scary time right now. workers not coming to the studio, we barely sleep and always just run to the shelter and stay there for a long time. There is no work right now on any part. no shipping's, no production and no customer support during those days. We hope all will get back to normal soon (it can take weeks) and we will be back to work too.

Thanks for your patience and understanding.

Quoted from Anubis330:

Lior, are you and your family alright???

Thanks for asking
we are ok but the situation is still here its day number 10 of the war. we are exhausted and very tired and not going out at all.
we hope it will be good soon but it can take few more weeks. the only good thing is that i have a lot of free time at home to paint and sculpt and also to draw some art.

BTW little shop of games got all orders of the GNR buttons and skulls. and should get the shooter rods very soon too. shipping is soon!
pop bumpers and topper are 100% ready. they sculpted and painted during a war LOL. we hope to get back to the studio soon but we need some days to get better to a normal life when this crazy thing end.

Thank you very much guys for the private messages and the support!

Hello guys. I'm happy to say that both sides agree to a ceasefire. For now there are no rockets and I hope it will stay like that for a long time until the next time...
The streets are still not 100% safe and I hope it will get back to normal soon. we finally can get back to almost normal and to sleep normal. Thank you guys for all of your support during these hard days!

about production and shipping
i didn't was in the studio for 2 weeks and also my workers because of the war and holiday. and i decide to give my worker and i a 1 week free because we was barely sleep and we need some time to get back to normal. so we will get back to the studio next Friday. i'm going right now to the studio to see what's going on over there because building near my studio (4 meters) got direct hit by a rocket.

so. today im taking a lot of stuff from the studio to pack during the weekend in my house. I will start to pack hobbit mods and JP T-REX and also GNR Speakers.
Flights are back but there is a huge backlog in the airport. just today i shipped to little shop of games 50% of hobbit orders. 100% of GNR skull + button. 100% GNR shooter rods. all POTC mods. So that means if you order one of those you should get them this month. if you order just the skull and the button you need to get them now but if you order a few more products with the bundle we decide to save you shipping cost and to ship them when a little shop of games will get the shooter. Hobbit orders will be shipped also this month but not all of them. we need to make more books and more legs.

as i said during those days that i was stuck at home i was sculpting A LOT!!!! I also paint some stuff and draw some art (also pinball art) . I need to make molds for the things that I sculpt with clay and I will start to show them soon. I made some super cool sculpts for Ghostbusters, GNR, Hobbit, Indiana jones and also for Mandalorian. we will reveal the hobbit beasts and we will open sales this month!

We will get back to ship T-REX in first of June. you should get yours until September. (if you order from me direct)
We will start pack the GNR speakers next week and we will get back to the production of the bumpers and topper next week.

Thank you very much guys

gnr coming soon v5 (resized).jpggnr coming soon v5 (resized).jpg

You can only imagine....This is NOT photoshop and NOT a rendering. This is real 

You can really only imagine all the things that this topper does....we have worked super hard to develop a system that integrates with the JJP system and reads all switches, lamps, sounds, and videos. This will be the MOST interactive topper ever made and the most complicated topper ever created! The light show is insane and its not only the leds but the special effects that are awesome, and that's not even everything! This topper is a full show on his own for the player and anyone else in the vicinity. This is the first topper that comes with an actual PC to control it and it's also fully sculpted and cast in resin. This topper will weigh about 11kg!!!!

I would love to tell you more about this topper but you will need to wait a few more weeks until we finish the programming and finalize the production of everything. It will be limited to 100 or 150 pieces ONLY. Unfortunately all of this means that it will not be cheap

There are also more creations coming soon to GNR so make sure to check back often   

We haven't opened sales yet and we are not taking pre-orders at this time. We hope to be able to start taking pre-orders around next month.

Quoted from Pdxmonkey:

Look good, is there a way to blend it with the CE features?

Thanks. Yes

#415 2 years ago

we are getting a lot of messages so i will try to answer to all here

NOT need to send message to me or to Little Shop Of Games about saving you one or what is the cost.
we don't know the cost yet we are still in production and programing. we are not taking orders right now sorry.

Because of the weight this will be sold ONLY from Little Shop Of Games. you cannot buy it from Pinball Haus or from Freddy's pinball paradise.
little shop of games will sell them worldwide with fulfilment center.

Yes the topper works with the CE and SE and also design to work with sound bar

No it cannot work with GNR data east.

We will know the limited number only after the production. we need to see and check how many we can cast with the molds we made for it. it can also be lower than 100 pieces. its limited for few casts. we will post info on that only when we will finish to cast and open the sales.

We will not open any sells until we finish to ship all back orders of Hobbit, GNR and Jurassic park (stern)

The height of the topper is 25 centimeters

The scale of the topper is 1 : 1 for the skull, roses and the guns and 1:2.5 for the Guitar

#417 2 years ago

Because of a system issue. all of the products include my products was Out of stock at Little Shop Of Games.
we just fixed the issue and all products are available to order or back order. stock for most of the mods should arrive next week.

The topper is so awesome Lior.
I can't wait for it to hit the Little Shop of Games site. Do you have an idea of when it will be available? Also Do you have any photos of the sculpted pop bumpers yet? Looking forward to seeing those as well.
Thank you for making such amazing mods.

We are very busy right now after the war in my country.
the topper is in our last priority right now because we have a lot of backlogs to ship like GNR speakers and JP T-REX
no estimate on price or time line or more info. we are working also on the production of the bumpers but we will not reveal it until we ship the speakers. we want to make quality and happy customers first and not to get more and more orders.
We will post more info soon.

Looks great, I just received my bullet shooter as well. Did you have to change the spring or just reuse the factory one? I remember seeing something about having to change the spring

Quoted from SJBRENT:

His mods are amazing. I got everything delivered. Just waiting on the speakers. So anxious to see what the pop bumpers are going to look like and the new reveal Lior hinted at.
I'm finally taking delivery of the actual game on 6/24 so I'll be able to install the mods.
I've got say though they are gorgeous and it honestly feels like the game would not be complete without them.
Great job Lior!

Thank you very much
we will not reveal anything about new mods before we finish shipping all JP T-REX orders that were ordered from me directly, we must be fair to our customers that's waiting a long time

For THE topper we have good news because we made 2 options and one of them is 50% cheaper. It looks the same but less active with the game. The topper will be open source so you can also upgrade and program it on your own! so the better option can also be done by you and you can save a lot of money
We will reveal it later this year. don't worry we DIDNT start to take orders

Little shop of games got all of the GNR backboard but the box that comes with the set got damaged during shipping so we are making new and stronger boxes and you will get yours soon! We hope to ship all of them in 2-4 weeks

I'm very very busy and i'm trying to target my time on creation, sculpting, packing and quality check only so I will not going to be active anymore in pinside, Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. I made a new Facebook account and private Instagram account so from now my great team will give you the best service and support they can and if you still want to talk with me you can send me an email. For product support you can contact my team and also your distributors.

Little shop of games will have all GNR items in stock from 10 of July. and they will finish shipping all GNR orders by 16 of July.

I finally got approved for a patent that I was working on for over 3 years for pinball and arcade machines and it will be something that NEVER was done before and going to make your games more unique and look much better! we will reveal it on 1.1.2022 so make sure to save the date!

Thank you very much guys for your AWESOME love and support. I really appreciate it and very happy to get photos from you everyday of our products installed.

Quoted from hool10:

The adhesive on the back of the action button mod isn't suitable for it. You need something stronger as it's bonding to something slick/angled/hammered finish.

please clean the surface with IPA before you installation. there is no angle on the bar where you need to install it.
its 3M glue that works great with powder coat surface and with resin

Quoted from Vespula:

I hope not.. those are communist stars, and that would not make it into my pin.

Don't worry. its not that star we did a big research...

Quoted from Flipper_Ripper:

It’s a giant star, Lior posted this mod in action a few days ago on his instagram. The drum kit on the bumpers looks beautiful and the star is lit as well if I remember correctly. Lior did a great job on it. He’s really nailed a lot of the mods for this machine. I’m priced out of them but appreciate the beauty and craftsmanship behind them. The speakers were so tempting for me to get, but the old wallet just had flies come out when I opened it.

Thank you. We will offer a 50$ discount for customers that bought the speakers set

#494 2 years ago
Quoted from Trojanlaw:

Where did Lior post on Instagram. I follow him and cannot find it.

I was installing the speaker mod above the drumsticks and I lost the metal piece that goes between the screw and the cardboard. Do I need the metal piece???
[quoted image]

No its ok

Quoted from jarozi:

Having trouble dialing in the amp/upkick cover. The ball gets stuck up there and no amount of tweaking has helped yet. I bend things around, think I have it, then a game or two later it's still getting stuck again. I followed the instructions in the guide, hope I'm a one off and everyone else has better luck. Going to keep futzing with it.

We had this issue on few games and the solution is very easy.

make sure to bend (push) the front VUK part a little bit to the back. you can see in this photo
pasted_image (resized).pngpasted_image (resized).png

please make sure that the nuts on both sides are not too tight.

Quoted from SJBRENT:

Is there an update on the pop bumpers? Will they be available through Little Shop of Games soon?

its your lucky day today

#526 2 years ago

I am excited to share my new GNR mod with everyone. This is my Favorite mod so far because its looks like jewelry. You must see it in person to understand! Super easy to install and its a perfect fit!! The drums are solid resin cast and hand painted.

I decided to make 2 stages and to make the LEDs pop out. The factory covers was blocking the LEDs. My mod comes with 2 frosted resin discs to make the led bright and shiny! The third bumper that doesn’t have LEDs in it (from the factory) comes with a light reflected disc. To make it look like there is a light in it. The bass drum also comes with a frosted resin disc.

The drums are painted with authentic drum paints and coated 3 times with Nitro clear coating. The chrome areas on the drums are made with real chrome.

I design those to make sure to not cover any view or important area of the game!

This mod is limited to 555 pieces worldwide!
exclusive for Little Shop Of Games only!
LIMIT ONE PER CUSTOMER PLEASE

The drums set is expected to start shipping around November
They are NOT in stock!

Fits Limited Edition and Collectors Edition of Jersey Jack Pinball’s Guns N’ Roses.
Will NOT fit on standard versions!

This mod is ONLY sold as a set, there is no option to buy single drum

exclusive for Little Shop Of Games only!

Hi Lior,
I believe you mentioned another mod you might be working on for GNR.
Will there still be another mod coming aside from the topper or is this the complete set for now?

We have few more mods for GNR but not this year.
We are working on mandalorian right now

Hi Lior,
Question for you. There is a clear plastic part on the left side of the drumsticks close to the Slash hat.
This would be a great place for a future mod. Wondering if you might have something planned for that spot before I explore other options.
Thanks

please send photo.

If you have Pin stadiums with the xeno mounts you can use it for the speaker mod from Lior since it won't fit in the back right corner. See my post here for pics: https://pinside.com/pinball/forum/topic/the-official-jjp-gnr-thread/page/265#post-6431424

Quoted from screaminr:

Any news on the topper ?

We post it on instagram. We are not that active in pinside anymore...

#563 2 years ago

screaminr Vespula guys calm down....

we are moving to a new house and new studio. its takes almost 2-3 months to organize all of that. we don't have time to post in pinside also because we don't have pc yet. we use our phones and we post story on Instagram once a week to update our customers like all other businesses
when we will have an important update we will post it in all media also in pinside but for now we don't have anything new and we are super busy with the house and new studio.
screaminr to ask about the topper once a week its not making it happen faster... be patient!
you can always check little shop of games website and sign in to the news later for more updates

www.littleshopofgames.com

we are humans not robots... some times we need some free time...
BTW its holiday month here. so there is no work at all until first week of October.
we are not working fast. we are working smart to make the best quality we can and to improve our product everytime and those things takes time!

the new studio have 19 production lines so thats mean we can work on GNR and Mandalorian and Godzilla at the same time and to release products faster.
its double bigger and 3X workers.

do not forget we have our own patent that coming soon that we are focusing on it most of our time.

if you want to see updates from our studio and my other projects and also to see some stuff behind the production and the design you are welcome to follow us on Instagram
https://www.instagram.com/lior_theartofpinball/
we will not post photos of me loading truck with pinballs and tools to pinside.... but we will upload it to Instagram!

Quoted from Kerry_Richard:

I don't do Facebook or Twitter. I don't even know what an instagram is... I do buy a lot of mods and have purchased many of Lior's.
This is disappointing, as I just rec'vd my GnR's LE

its not disappointing because the products are still available at little shop of games. we are just busy. read the update....

www.littleshopofgames.com

thats why i have distributors thats have stock and taking pre orders and also giving customer service when im focusing on creating and other things.

Quoted from cybevenom:

Well that is what i call fast. I contacted Lior wednesday via instagram in regard to some paint chips coming loose from my action button mod. He reacted quickly and after sending a picture of it he said he would ship a replacement via Freddy's Pinball Paradise in Germany. Even said i could keep the damaged one. Guess what got delivered this morning via DHL and is allready rocking my machine.
Now that is customer service.

Welcome and thank you very much for the feedback!

BTW next week we will share some news about GNR mods and the future of The Art Of Pinball
stay tuned!

Quoted from Bmanpin:

I'm sure you waited a long time for your GNR if you don't like what he has to offer move on. This is the second or 3rd post where you are giving him business advice, if you think you can do better go for it. He makes a quality product and is now distributing through Little Shop of Games. No need to be so harsh. Excellence takes time.

That is correct. We don't have anything new to share.
He didnt paid for anything and i didnt toke any orders for the gnr topper. Its super complicated topper maybe the complicated ever made. My electronic engineer pass away and its super hard to find someone who can do the programing for this topper. So please Vespula you dont know what happen in my personal life or what is my other tasks. If you dont like it dont buy it. I dont need your advice

Btw @vespula. If you will check my instagram you will see there is nothing new and there is no new creation. We are superrrr busy on back orders. We will not reveal anything and will not take money from people before we finish ALL of our backorders. We are not stern or jjp.

We will share info when we have something to share. Good things takes time!

Thank you guys

#582 2 years ago
Quoted from cybevenom:

I am so looking forward to this topper but i rather wait a bit longer and have a perfect working topper than getting rushed and dealing with the problem aftermath.

That is correct. Nothing to rush... we will finish the production first and will find new guy that can program over 250 leds and motors

****PRODUCTION UPDATE AND TOPPER UPDATE****

We have all drums ready and packed. our country is in a minor lock down again and we don't have many flights.
all items and also my Hobbit and the others GNR mods packed and waiting for flight booking. we hope it will be shipped next week so you will get it on time!

GNR TOPPER

we are very happy to say that we found a new electronic guy and he finish the programing and we decide to make it more simple.

we are now working on a backboard artwork that will go behind the main sculpt. it will be made by a very thick laser cutted acrylic and have 2-4 layers to give an amazing effect and each layer will be with his own LED light. we are drawing all by hand from scratch and it will take time. as you know im doing as much details as i can and you will see it on each part of this topper and also for one of my up coming mods that will be the most detailed creation that ever made in pinball and it will be made for WOZ.

*what next?
we have to make a metal bracket that will hold everything and also to design a packing.

*when the topper will be ready or when you can order?
we hope to finish it by the end of the year or sooner.
THERE IS NO LIST
THERE IS NO PRE ORDER
and we really don't know what is the estimate time or cost or how many we will make. ONLY when we will have one completely ready we will share more info.
for now we are still working on it and we are also working on many other things on the same time. and we are not going to rush it. our quality and product design is on our top top priority!

good things takes time! we are really thinking about everything. me and my team working on this topper for over a year!

Here is a sneak peek of one of the charters on the backboard design

Thank you guys!
Little shop of games shipping orders all the time. you should get yours in a few days!

Quoted from Blackjacker:

Is this automatic, or do we need to reach out to you or Little Shop of Games and mention this again?
Received my drums, but no refund. (Haven’t opened them yet, so apologies if there’s a $50 bill in the box.)

Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

I emailed LSoG about this after receiving my drums a week ago. Still waiting to hear back from them, but I understand they're busy shipping mods currently so not going to press it for a while.

That is correct
Little shop of games are very busy now and have over 1500 orders to ship.
to get a refund on the drums if you bought also the speakers you need to send email and they will replay when they will be free

Thanks

Hello guys!
Long time.....

well, this game is not getting old, and we made new creation that will fit to GNR very well
we will post it here in a few weeks!

Were many people curious about what was going on with my GNR topper?
Our issue was electronic. It's not easy for us to assemble those and to make codes and connect it to the game, but we finally found someone that doing the electronic for us in my country, and if you saw my new Toy Story creation, you can see that he did a great job
and about the metal base, we found a really good solution!
We are finishing the GNR topper right now. Our plan is this month. We will post an update very soon!

#625 1 year ago
Quoted from Enchantress:

Heard from a reputable source GnR topper might be listed at $3500!! And I soooo really wanted it….. I realize Lior makes some quality stuff, but I scoffed at EHOH topper when it was initially released. That is before I bought it.

Your source is wrong.... its far away from 3500$
We dont know price yet so not sure from where you got 3500$ on something that we just start to work on.....

1000$ was our target before 2 years only for the basic version and we decide to pass on it and we post its not going to be available here before one year. also, materials and costs changed during those years, and we changed the design too so this target is mission impossible for us. We will do only one version with all features and only one price. More details soon

For now, don't listen to new or old rumors....

#627 1 year ago
Quoted from Enchantress:

That's what I was hoping to hear, since I've held off purchasing the other options that are out there. Is $2500 closer to your target price point? Even more important, can't wait to get eyes on what you came up with.[quoted image]

no it's not the same topper. the guitar won't be there.
we made many changes and we added a lot of details to the back of it. the guitar made it cost a lot because the amount of resin and the electronics in it

about the price I really don't know by myself because I don't have the cost yet, we are still working on it. we don't have target, and we don't have any estimate price. we will share the info when we will have all assembled.

#630 1 year ago

i was trying to upload the video to here but no luck....
We just finish the art part. the design is ready. we are working on the base and LED'S right now

Quoted from rrosenhouse:

Lior,
I know your GNR topper is not finished, but can you give me the approximate height of it? Want to make sure it will fit with my low ceilings.
Thanks!!

Between 25-32 cm but most of the height is the backboard. We still working on the base

We are super close!
Working now on the COA as you can see in the video. we are also making a special metal plaque for each topper.
the base prototype is almost done, and we will share photos of the prototype version. it won't be the base that you will get in the production.
electronics is almost done and we are also working on special packing

the topper will be on free worldwide shipping for pre-orders only

Our next creation for GNR is almost done and I'm sure you will love it!
One of my favorites so far!

Hello guys.
Today was a special day!
I finally tested the GNR topper on the game and was super proud of the results!
It was really worth the two years of hard work.
We are now testing it and editing the videos and photos. It will take a few days to upload and share more info with you guys.
You must see it in person because the video is not doing any justice to it!

I also finished my favorite sculpted plastic today, and I love them! Those are my favorite so far from any plastic covers we made.

Hello guys!
I know you've been waiting for the GNR topper for a really long time.
We are working super hard to make it right and make it of the best quality!
We are now testing and checking some packing and shipping options, which will give us the final price for the topper.
The GNR topper will be sold directly from me rather than from LSOG because we want to save the cost of shipping for you guys.
It's a super big part and very heavy, so there is no sense in shipping it two times.
We will post a pre-order page very soon!

Quoted from Enchantress:

Lior what's happening with topper release? You have a ship date set? Are they going to be a limited production?

Im stuck with the video editing. I hope this week i will find someone

Yes limited edition 350 pieces.

Its already in production. We are casting it right now.

#671 1 year ago

Yes it will fit on CE but you will need to mount the sound bar on the back.

About pricing we have a price but the only thing that always change is the shipping prices thats going crazy right now. We will do a free shipping worldwide and to AU orders a small extra fee around 50$.

The topper wont cost over 2500$
Our target is to sell it as lower as we can.
Our cost on this topper is insane. The base is super complicated also it have over 300 led pixels and 3 layers of 5mm acrylic plus the main huge sculpt and the time of making one will take many hours too.

I will share the price and all details when we will finish the video editing.

#673 1 year ago
Quoted from Pinfidel:

Hi Lior.
How many are being made in total again.

350 total but on the first run (2023) we will make between 150-250 only
another 100 -200 pieces will be made around the end of 2024

Hello guys. Here is some updates

We will ship the hobbit plastic set next week and the Toy story carnival booth by the end of February

We will post over 20 new items for Toy Story, James Bond, Godzilla, Jurassic park, Gnr, Wonka, and more!
We will run a new way to do a pre-orders to avoid delays.

We are super excited to say that from now we have a Europe seller that has all of our items in stock! He will get all the new items too very soon!

instagram euro seller (resized).jpginstagram euro seller (resized).jpg

For Australia, we are working with a distributor, too, and we will share the info in March!

GNR topper update.
We have a video! All orders will be directly from me. No distributors because of shipping it twice. it only makes sense to ship it once on this oversized item.
We will post a link in a few days!!!!

We team up with buffalo pinball. We love their videos and podcast and will make some crazy giveaways and a few exclusive items too!
You will get more info inside the box of the new products soon

Quoted from atg1469:

Knew it was going to be pricey but god damn. For $2400 I’d expect more than just an impressive light show but that’s just me.

Quoted from eharan:

I love the look of the topper but the price is very steep! I remember Lior stating previously that it would not be over $2k!! Would love to have one but can't pull the trigger at that price!

We said not over 2500$, and do not forget we ship for FREE! And no sell tax (250$ shipping cost and 17% sell tax so it's not really 2350$ just for the topper)

Before two years 2000$ was a good goal, and I wish I could sell it cheaper! but the prices of everything are going up super high right now. Just to ship it to USA it cost us around 250$, and we ship it for free! Do not forget to calculate the cost of the materials and the time of making and developing them. The huge tax in my country and many more things. sometimes people don't see the cost and the work behind it. we don't just write price from nowhere

It's not just a light show and it's all made by hand. You have a huge heavy sculpture in front. Over 300 LEDs and 3 layers of thick printed acrylic. Just to compare. Mando topper with shipping and tax to usa costs 2237$....

Im sure there will be people that won't like it and won't understand it and it's okay i wish the prices will go down asap not just for games also for shippings, resin and many more stuff.

Our first idea was to make it with a moving guitar and talking skull but after we calculate the cost we stop the development it was over 1000$ more and it also was super tricky to make it and not worth the cost

It's something that you really need to see in person to appreciate it.

also, feel free to send me a pm if you have ANY requests. i always listen to my customers.

Quoted from Pizza-Bob:

Any ideal what the height is ?

30cm

#687 1 year ago
Quoted from Vespula:

Can you share installation info and connection details for data feeds and power? It would be helpful for potential buyers to know this info to identify issues prior. There are many mods on the market that could conflict and cause potential compatibility problems.

yes, sure, we haven't made the installation manual yet, but we will do it in a few weeks.
It goes on top of the backboard with 4-6 screws, or it has an option for a strong double side tape
about the electronics, there is only 2 connectors that go on the game and nothing that needs to be changed. it cannot do any damage to the game 100% guarantee. We have tested it for over a year with our engineers on the game.
We don't do any electronics mods without checking them with professional engineers many times.

#694 1 year ago

Hello guys
unfortunately, we are sorry to say that the production of the topper is on hold
for now, we will not sell the topper.
we respect any license or companies requests so we are going to go back to our drawing board and to do some changes. it will take us some time but we will be back with a solution. people who place an order please check your email for a full refund.
Thank you guys for your awesome support!

Hello
When we moved to the new studio, we had a few projects that were made but never posted. Some creations for TZ, IJ, POTC, Wonka, and more.
we decided to make just a Few Under 150 pieces ONLY. We made this creation almost two years ago.
I love how the colors blend with the game. and I really love the details!
We will offer it for sale soon. If someone is interested, he can write here or by PM. I will send a pre-order link when it's ready to ship.
