Yeah, I'd really love to hear the story behind the topper from Dennis Nordman or someone who was there. I can't think of another machine where this done, so how did they even figure out to use stamped foil, where did they make it, how many prototypes did they go through, etc. I've looked but haven't found this in depth anywhere online. There are loads of stories out there, though, about remaking the topper and then they just fade away after giving up.

I'll add that a decent topper (at minimum) was a dealbreaker for me when I was buying my WH20 and I hope this latest effort works out for those who need it. I honestly do sometimes between games just stand there in the dark admiring the effect.

So we're talking about two possible toppers -- one for your head and one for Wh20.

IMO if I can't have them both then I'd want what I already got -- no hair and a nice Wh20 topper.

(btw I really hope this effort comes through for those who need toppers of the Wh20 kind)

The original drawing has some pretty interesting text on it —
