KISS
Bally, 1979I'm looking to replace my 10 year old KISS drop targets which each have a band member's face on a clear vinyl sticker as they are starting to curl up and are likely beyond repair.
I've found these on eBay and wonder if anyone has used them or can describe what they mean by "DIRECT UV PRINTED TO TARGETS" and " UNBREAKABLE".

These are from classicarcades. I've bought lots of parts from them in the past and everything has been good. Originals drops were the bulls eye targets but the faces look good as a replacement, he has both.
Do you know if these are just a sticker stuck on the target or is the graphic actually imprinted onto the target?
Quoted from DrMark12PA:Do you know if these are just a sticker stuck on the target or is the graphic actually imprinted onto the target?
Per the listing "DIRECT UV PRINTED TO TARGETS" so its not a decal!
Shoot I just bought the red bull eye drop targets for mine.. I didn't realize they originally had the heads on them.. Does anyone know where I can buy some decals?
Quoted from meSz:Per the listing "DIRECT UV PRINTED TO TARGETS" so its not a decal!
Again, I'm not sure what they mean by UV printing... does that mean printed on a sticker that is then stuck on the target or does the target literally have the graphic printed directly onto it?
I have an older set of these which was just a clear sticker and that's starting to peel without heavy usage so I'm concerned that this is the same thing. If they can print a bullseye target on the drop target, I would assume they can put anything on a target.
I just bought some drop targets for my Power Play from classicarcades; I can tell you that they are printed directly on the piece of plastic. They are shipped in a bubble envelope relatively quickly and work like a charm.

I think you got it right.
They had bulls eyes on them from the factory.
I just bought a set of their custom targets for my Captain Fantastic. If I still had my Kiss, they would get a set too.

The problem with these are that the trim colors are wrong! Ace is blue, as he should be. Gene is supposed to be red, Peter green, and Paul purple. A regular pinball guy will not notice this or care, but a Kiss collector picks it out immediately.
I have a set of the Kiss drop target decals you can have. For an extra $15, + shipping I'll throw in an extra matching shooter rod.
I have had these for a year or so and will never use them.

Dang, I just noticed the incorrect color scheme right after I ordered....

Quoted from New_Pinhead:So............ Is there anywhere to get the proper colour scheme drop targets?
THANKS!
I have not found any place that sells the correct KISS color scheme matching each of the band members persona colors. Hence, why I made my own.

Bump?
So you've been deciding for a year whether you want to buy the "improper color" incorrect drop targets?
lol
