Quoted from PtownPin:

I think they make really creative stuff...I was on their pre buy list and got access to purchase first. The reason I didn't transact was the lack of information. I didn't want to pony up $ site unseen. Not sure I understand this strategy although they apparently sold 25 $2K+ toppers in less than 24 hours so what do I know.

Seems like they sold thru distributors? Video in action here: (well I guess not actually in action...)

Quoted from Thermionic:

More money than sense indeed! A fog machine in close proximity to a pin? Does anyone ever think about the real-world implications of all this extraneous "clever" shit?!?
In fairly short order, the fog (consisting of glycols and/or glycerin + water) will condense on every glass surface in the room and leave a film on your pinballs and video games - it smudges like hell and is a bit of a pain to clean, and you will not be able to simply ignore it. (We learned this lesson the hard way one year when we decked out the game room in a haunted house motif for a party - NEVER AGAIN!)
Granted, from the pic it looks like the topper emits a lot less than a full-blown fog generator, but it will still almost certainly make a mess on nearby glass surfaces (and I don't even want to contemplate the potential misery of cleaning up when it inevitably starts to leak sticky fog juice all over the game).

The instructions the SDTM guys read stated to use only the specific fluid described. Not sure what that means but a fluid leak would be bad for a pin no doubt. They have a non-fog device topper as well. Maybe the elite ones are just to get attention to the unlimited non-elite ones somehow. The instructions as read also had disclaimers to not run the topper in pin attract mode and let it just keep blowing mist for long periods of time.

They should do a Mandalorian topper.
