I would like to see the classic 1980's Stern's, like 9ball, Lightning, etc.

Quoted from Skypilot:

They do not have licensing agreements with anyone else at this time.

I thought classic Stern do not require a license, unless it has a 3rd party license tied to it. Gary Stern does not own the license to the 1970-1980s Sterns games. I believe his ex-wife did but she did not care if anyone makes parts.

Quoted from eabundy:

Got my Firepower Hardtop Installed. Mata Hari on deck. I should have it in the Allentown Free Play area next month, along with Mata Hari. Also working on Flash Gordon and Space Shuttle. Those will be going to Pintastic.

I like the red t-molding on the head. Looks good. Nice job!

Quoted from ChrisPINk25:

After putting on the hardtop, you won't be able to remove the pop bumper nails. I put in new ones in my Space Shuttle when I did the hardtop. I didn't counter sink them, I just hammered them really flat against the playfield.

I would NOT recommend this. It is no different than some of the clear coat guys who will clear coat over hardware (like T-nuts). If this hardware ever needs to be replaced, it will now be under the hardtop.
