Friend of mine on here is making a different hammer for Metallica premium/LE.
spinny-vinny is his pinside name.

This is the prototype,still need to make some fitment changes.
Then it will get custom painted and tested on my LE.

Gauging interest before he makes more.
Or suggestions for other versions.
Original and Aurich hammer shown for scale.

Quoted from shovelhed:

There will be a shit ton of interest, got any pics?

You are quick,I forgot to add them

Quoted from Twilight1:

I'd be in for one for my pro.

I don't think it will work on a pro,no handle mech for it.
Maybe we can figure out how to mount one there.

Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

I'm definitely interested in a hammer mod for my MET Premium, but not a big fan of this (or any generally) skull design. My preference would be for a more basic looking hammer similar to Aurich's.
That said, I'm sure this mod will be very popular and wish to thank you and your friend for developing this!

I'm sure he can do that as well.
Open to suggestions

Quoted from MacLean:

the one with the spikes is f'en awesome!! Nice work. I'm in one of those for sure.

The one with the spikes is Aurich's hammer.
I bought that a few years ago.
No longer available,only 30 made.
We would not copy his design,Vince would do his own thing.

#26 7 years ago

Here are some more prototypes,still test fitting and Vince needs to paint them up.
Vince has a fist,traditional hammer and the skull hammer in the works.
Thinking of adding LED's to the skull version,just adding a led strip inside to light it up,cut out the eyes in the skull.

Quoted from Jarbyjibbo:

Ditto! Would love a price for the skull and hammer.

Don't know pricing until he has one completed.
They all will be hand painted.

Quoted from Aurich:

Yeah, my friend flaked out on me, and he has other stuff to worry about so I stopped pushing. And frankly I've had other stuff to worry about myself, Alien kinda sucked up all my pinball mod time.
My attitude is that I had my window to do it, I didn't, and if someone else wants to step up and fill that void I can't possibly be mad about it. I wish this project nothing but luck and success with my blessing if anyone cares about that.

Hi Aurich,

Love your design,Vince didn't want his to look anything like yours.
It's special And going back in my game after these are tested.

Here are some pictures in my game.

Quoted from Jarbyjibbo:

Does the skull block any visibility while playing since it's a tad larger?
Any idea on pricing yet?

Skull is still about 1/3 smaller then the stock hammer.

#55 7 years ago
Quoted from Fytr:

Those are just SIIIIICK!
I love the LEDed skull version. Do the LEDs only light when the hammer lock is ready?

Yes,mine is tied into the coffin lock flasher.

#89 7 years ago

Just a note on the skull hammer install,you need to remove the bolt extension from the front of the shaft.
It is not needed anyway.

#93 7 years ago

Comparison pics for size of the new hammer.
