Quoted from thepinballworks:Well, to be honest I want about eight of them. But thought I will try one first.
I said the same thing about my first pinball machine...

Quoted from midcoastsurf:Following up on your question. Here’s a TMNT LE backglass in my Lit Frame.
[quoted image]
I wish I had that TMNT art work 
Ottawa, ON
Quoted from Zitt:Sega Godzilla
I measured this at 25.75 x 18 inches
Quoted from Zitt:Multimorphic's Weird Al LE translite
26x18 inches
Quoted from Saltimbanco:Hi, where again do you offer movie poster snap frames, for double sided 26" x 40"? I believe I read a few posts (quite a while back) on this thread. I'd like to compare products/prices with what I already have, tks!
[quoted image][quoted image]
I made a sample one years ago, but just don't have the space to keep the inventory.
Quoted from thepinballworks:Have you made one for a Capcom?[quoted image]
BBB will fit in my Stern DMD-size Spike 1 Lit Frame. Marco should have them back in stock in about 4 weeks.

Quoted from Zitt:I'm guessing I won't get an answer?
Sega Godzilla - I measured this at 25.75 x 18 inches
Multimorphic's Weird Al LE translite - 26x18 inches
The closest size frame I have is the Stern LCD, but there would need to be trimming on the top and bottom of the translite for Godzilla and Weird Al. Then the Stern DMD and WMS/Bally are also close. Translite sizes are as follows:
Spike 1 = 25.75" x 19"
Spike 2 = 25.75" x 16.375"
WMS/Bally = 26.5" x 18.375"

Friends!
After 5+ years of an amazing run, I am turning off the lights for Lit Frames to turn my attention to other areas of my life.
Once the existing inventory is sold out, that is it. I will not be producing any additional product.
If you would like to carry on the torch of the successful Lit Frames business, let me know. I would love for it to continue bringing smiles into homes across the globe. You can reach out to me at: [email protected]
Thanks for being amazing customers and I'll see you around the hobby.
Happy flippin!
-Brad
Quoted from LTG:Thank you for all you did. Best wishes on your future endeavors.
LTG : )
Thanks LTG! You sat across from me at my first Expo in 2019. It was great finally meeting you after so many years of great advice from the one and only LTG : )

These have been the highlight of my game area for me. Maybe even more so than the pinball machines themselves. Thanks Brad and best wishes!!!
Good luck in the future, Doug.
People will miss your kits, but at least there is still an alternative.

Thanks Doug! You may be thinking of a different brand. I've only sold backlit frames since about 2018.

I think RTS got a little over excited by your closure announcement, thinking it was me closing shop.
Nothing to fear RTS....people can still get the original and best Speaker Light Kits from SpeakerLightKits.com. I'm not planning on closing shop anytime soon.
Best of luck on your future endeavors @midcoastsurf, as well as passing the Lit Frames torch.

You are probably correct! Too funny
Brad- Thanks for your effort and frames these past 5 years. Great Product.
Wish you the best for all future endeavors and life.
I guess it's to late to get one for a Stern Lord of the Rings?

Well, this sucks!
Did you ever make any for JJP promo translights? I have a Toy Story I need one for.
I still keep checking Marco for the stern ones.
Good luck in your next adventure.

It's time for another adventure 
I only made the JJP size around 2019, but their print quality was not meant to be backlit be an ultra premium Lit Frame, so it was really washed out.
I still have some Spike 2 (LCD game) and 90's WMS/Bally-size in stock. But, I did not expect inventory to be selling out this fast. WOW.
Quoted from Dayhuff:Somebody else needs to step into Brads place and take this over.
John
I appreciate it John. It's a great business and the demand continues. I've had discussions with a few individuals and we will see where things go.

I have a handful of frames left:
- Stern Spike 2-size (games with LCD screen): $199 shipped
- 90's WMS/Bally-size (games like TOTAN, TOM, TAF, TZ, etc.): $209 shipped
- Acrylic, edge-lit frame with a signed Brian Allen 16"x20" translite (Rampage, Sonic, Metroid, Arcade Bosses): $179 shipped
If looking to buy multiples and get a discount, message me and I'll take care of you!
Bosses (resized).jpgSonic (resized).jpgmetroid (resized).jpgWell that's a bummer to hear, but I can fully understand your need for something new. I'm fairly new to the hobby and was just looking for something like this to frame my Labyrinth backglass, though it is a slightly different size than the Sterns. The search continues!
Good luck to you in your next chapter.
Best of luck to your next venture! I and my friends and family love our frames!

Check the Labyrinth owners thread. Someone framed theirs. I believe it was a Spike 2 frame.
Quoted from BoilerUp:Check the Labyrinth owners thread. Someone framed theirs. I believe it was a Spike 2 frame.
Well, the spike 2 frames say they fit a backglass measuring 25-7/8" x 16-1/2" and this measures at 27" x 17". Might have to try making one from scratch.

Here ya go. I found the post where they said Spike 2 worked and then if you scroll down, you’ll see the backglass framed.
On the other hand, gotta love a little project. Decisions, decisions. Good luck and hope this helps.

Well at least 7 at Marco are gone. I got 5 at first and just ordered 2 more.
They are fantastic.
Quoted from KingBW:Brad you had a good run. Will miss the product. See you around at the shows though.
I appreciate it! One of my first customers and great to first meet you at the 2019 Expo. See you in Oct?

Yes - we'll be there. stop us if you see us and say hello.
Quoted from Gexchange:Damn I love this product! Someone needs to pick it up.
Thanks for the kind words!

He cant be making that much off it if hes walking away. Who walks away from a successful business?
Quoted from Chitownpinball:He cant be making that much off it if hes walking away. Who walks away from a successful business?
Interesting take. It's always been a side hobby for me. Time has to come from somewhere to pursue other interests. I wouldn't have done it for 6 years if it wasn't a successful business. Way too many late nights and weekends spent building this business that could have been spent elsewhere if that were the case.
Quoted from Chitownpinball:He cant be making that much off it if hes walking away. Who walks away from a successful business?
I can think of about half a dozen reason off the top of my head why someone would walk away. I walked away from a successful business because my other business was doing better and needed all of my time.
