Hoping you guys bring some bling!

Quoted from Tmezel:Big Ben prototype. It covers the one way switch and will be illuminated. [quoted image][quoted image]
Assuming it will have the clock?
Quoted from Psw757:Assuming it will have the clock?
Yes it will and light up. Big Ben is shown during the end of game sequence and thought it was a good filler for the back corner. It is quite substantial.

Yeah it’s featured in some other Celebration Day animations as well along with the bell.
Looks good!
Tim- love the Big Ben! Dumb question...will it be grey or stone/sand color? More true to actual clock tower color.
Side note: The clock tower is currently under refurbishment and Big Ben(the clock) is getting some new parts. Whole thing is covered in scaffold and drape right now.
Edit: just noticed parliament color, so i think i answered my own question.

Awesome! Please count me in for both of those pieces!
When will these be available for purchase?
I also noticed your drop decals have taken a beating. You must be playing this non-stop.

That’s not a Stern problem. We put in the illuminated drop targets and did not secure the decals well.

Ive already added those drops to my mezel cart!
Thinking ill transfer them and mylar over top of them. Add a little adhesive to decal too.

Now your on the right track
Will you guys be carrying the shooter lane protectors? Also any chance in getting the plastic protectors in clear?
You able to spice up those pop bumper caps and do them some justice?
Here are some ideas that could look good.

Love Love Love the record idea for pops!
Quoted from pinmister:Love Love Love the record idea for pops!
He said he has something in the works for the pops, can’t wait to see it!
Quoted from rollitover:I like the design well enough but the size
leaves one feeling a bit... "deflated."
Size Matters
I think what would look best for the zeppelin would be the original markings of the airship represented, the Hindenburg, however, that would be impossible today because of the Nazi markings. It's not hard to figure out why Stern left the airship with the details undone (other than to save money of course!).

You could do the Hindenburg because it's your machine (the IJ blimp has swastikas on it because...hey...it took place during WWII). But the Hindenburg doesn't really have anything to do with Zeppelin outside of being an actual Zeppelin. I'm making some water slide decals with the band logo and member's sigils to put on mine. Fits the theme much better.

I found some nice logo decals on Amazon about 1" each, also thought they would look good on Zeppelin

Surprised nobody has thought of a properly scaled LZ Boeing 720 Starship.
Actually bugs me Steve and Tim didn’t do their homework and use the proper aircraft for their animations. They used a next gen Boeing 737 which is wonky in my opinion, definitely not the vintage look.

It’s the same size as the original.
When will this stuff be up on the site?
Any update on the pop caps? Those are the first change I want to make.

Same question, you keep teasing us.
I check site daily to.
Quoted from Hayfarmer:We need flipper decals too.
And something for those blahh sling shot plastics.
I’m ready to buy some stuff. He said it would be for sale this week but don’t see anything on the site.
Quoted from Psw757:Any of these mods still happening?
Was wondering about this? Do the modders still need to get approval from Stern on certain assets? Seems like trying to get Stern to reply currently is difficult? Could be waiting for sign-off?

Not sure, he hasn’t been on here for the last two weeks.
Quoted from kidchrisso:Got anything to cover up these shitty welds that Stern seems to think is OK?

Put an Icarus sticker on it. Because, more Icarus, more better.
