Not taking "orders", we are taking Requests......

Me either!....I can't wait to restore my Medusa with a new CPR Playfield!....Jim Heck does an awesome job on the artwork (Jim also did the Flash Gordon PF Artwork) so I can't wait to see his artwork for Medusa....

Nice PinCardz on both those pins......

yep, I can't wait!....I "think" Medusa is up next for CAD File / CNC.....but things change daily!

I'm assuming your referring to the Shield of the Gods Post?

If so, I sent an NOS one to Rick a few years back & he already Repro'd them. BAA doesn't show them in stock but Marco does: http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/C-972-1

If this is what you are talking about.....

yep

an easy way to tell the difference is the Light Blocking Ink color...OEM is Silver, where CPR uses a more Dark Bronze for the Light Blocking.

Interesting statement because we have been sold out for over a year.....

and I have already said multiple times now that we are going to do another run of these with New Artwork ( which we already have ) and our New Production process for CMYK glasses ( which is A LOT Different than Spot Color glasses ), but I have No Time-Frame at this point....

NO, Incorrect.

NO.

We have since Changed many aspects of our Production Process to correct the problem, a perfect example of a CPR Backglass using the New Production Process is the EATPM Backglass we did 6 months ago. EATPM was the first CMYK Process Color ( Not "Spot Color" ) project where I created a New Formula for Converting RGB to CMYK AND Color Correcting the Scan for Film Output that is Optimized for our specific CPR Silk-Screening Process......

When I did the color correction of the Original Cruse Scanned Image for Medusa ( RGB Converted to CMYK, Adjusted, and Color Matched ) I adjusted the Image to the "Production Process" ( Screen-Printing ) that was being used by CPR a couple years back when this title was made. Later we discovered that the Screen-Print process was actually Over-Saturating the Ink onto the Glass ( making Cow-Patty Blobs INSTEAD of Nice Clean Sharp Dots ) which made the image look "heavy" on the color and it ultimately "looked" like the Colors were wrong, which they were Not. The Colors were correct, it was simply an Illusion due to the Over-Saturation of the Ink on the glass. The Cow-Patty's were "smooching together" instead of being "separated" from one-another, thus causing a 'middle color' of Muck that never should have been there. This is what caused the image to look Heavy in Color. This was also the problem with the Flash Gordon "Flesh Color" looking too Red ( the Magenta was not Nice Clean Dots they were Cow-Patty's all smooched together causing the Red to be much more pronounced and thus making everything look Red instead of Flesh color). This same issue is why the Paragon, Centaur & Star Trek Backglasses came out the way they did......

I was NOT Happy with any of these and that is why Kevin & I put so much Effort & did so much Experimenting with Different Production Process until we figured out the Perfect Formula for Artwork Color Conversions, Artwork Color Correction, Film Line Screens and DPI, Screen Mesh Sizes, Ink Consistency, Screen Pressure, Screen Print Speed, Etc......The results of our R&D Efforts paid off with the EATPM Backglass, it looks Awesome! And this new process is what we will be following on All new CMYK projects from here on out.

You 'are' aware that the original EATPM was a Translite done in Photographic Continuous Tone Color Process ( like a Kodak Picture Print ) right?

So we had to take a Continuous Tone Image and make it Pixelized, Now compound that with the High Limitations of Screen Printing at a Resolution that will actually allow Ink through the tiny Fabric Mesh to produce an image, and you get EATPM.

So Aurich, No matter how bad you bash CPR's work the Fact is this:
We provide the Best Product Possible with the Technology available to us at the time. If it doesn't meet your standards/approvals, then simply don't buy it. But there is no reason for you to bash our products in a public forum this way, all it does is hurt the sales of CPR, and with enough of that shit going on right now I'm surprised that we even still make parts for pinball. Continuing shitty comments & negativity like this is going to put CPR out of business > Then what the hell will people do for parts? Come to you? LMAO, Let's see "you" do better in a reproduction of the EATPM Backglass ( Glass NOT a Translite that you get from Kinkos ).

End Rant.

I am NOT a "spokesperson" for CPR...I'm a Partner and the Art Director, nothing more. I get singled out as a 'spokesperson' all the time because I'm the only one of the 3 of us Partners that regularly visits the forums, but I am NOT a 'spokesperson' for CPR, I am NOT Customer Service either, that would be Kevin.

Ok, so you, the Consummate Pinball Professional, believe that you are Qualified ( professionally ) to do "Reviews" of other peoples products? LOL You have the "right" to post your "Personal Opinions", as does anybody, but really, who are you trying to fool, all you do is nit-pic about everything you can find during a "Where's Waldo" session. You may not like what we do, as I'm sure others don't like our products as well, but that's ok, we still sell our products to those people that actually NEED them and are Gratefull to CPR for making these products....Even WITHOUT your Crapy "REVIEWS" that nobody seriously cares about. If they did care about those 'reviews' we wouldn't sell out of everything....So why even do reviews, Do you really think that people can't look at the Same Picture you look at and make a judgement call for themselves about whether or not to purchase it???? I think you do these 'reviews' just so you have someone to talk with on the forums.....

More tape??? Do you have any idea of how many people would come down on you if I "stopped posting CPR stuff" and named you as the reason why?
