    My wive and me bought for hell lot of money this very rare and limited neon from a local brewerie in Cologne/Germany.
    It is "made in Germany" (never knew that we have such a firm making neons) .. a beauty:

    The colors are natural much much nicer.

    The original version of this neon is since the 1960´mounted on a house in Cologne ... very very large ...

    Quoted from kapsreiter:

    cooles Neon Tom eine Röhre schaltet aber nicht ganz ab
    lg freaktech

    Yes, but only to see on video .. in natural it looks pretty nice.

    JJP had his own neons a while ago ... it was something around 400 bucks and suddenly ... the vhines showed up. Not the quality like original but for 120 bucks or so .... Also I have a chinaman BBB Logo. I think for pinball neons you have to buy chinese stuff and, I am very happy with it. Only on one neon I had to swap a transformer.

    I have also such a "china BBB sign" and I am quite happy with it.
    Same for the JJP sign, they were sold out and were around 400 EURO, china-sign was under 200 and works fine.
    Colors are natural mich nicer than on the pics.
    The WOZ playfield is fitted with RGB LED and a rasperry, the animation is 1 from the original attract mode, very nice wallhanger.

    Quoted from DennisDodel:

    Are the bumper caps available for purchase somewhere?

    We had the bumpercaps from a guy in the german forums at flippermarkt.de , price was around 17 Euro.

    https://www.flippermarkt.de/community/forum/threads/coole-lampen-50-75-100-points-when-lit-zum-selber-basteln.163630/

    They are a pretty cheap tweak:
    The lamps are from "IKEA" or cheap furniture store and were 2,22 Euro each.
    The popbumper design is plottet foil. You need a plotter and some foil.
    This was coated with a thin layer of clearcoat.
    Thats it ....

    Now I wait for the first moneymaker on pinside to offer this lamps for 150 bucks .. that would be the normal pinside way

    For the DIY guys follow the link. Maybe you need to create a account to see the pictures.
