I'm not just the 'No Topper' president, I'm also a client. This is the official I hate toppers thread to voice hate for all things topper. Not counting my Darlek, he's cool.

Quoted from jints56:I'll remember to take my toppers off when you come over next time
No worries I won't rage them down. But feel free to have any female guests with their toppers off

Quoted from sparechange1974:I like toppers if they are somewhat symmetrical and appear as if they belong or came with the game. Putting random stuff on the top of a pinball is not my cup of tea, done right they are beautiful. That said, I probably need to go to topaholics anonymous as I'm buying toppers for machines I don't have. I thought this thread might help me, but I just makes me want to look at more toppers.
Ugh those pics are just more examples of just say no.

Toppers still not my thing on the main wall.

But I cannot deny Joe makes some awesome stuff.

I'm not into the plain etched stuff but these combo art cut outs and laser backgrounds are to my pleasing. I may need to see if he still has a Stargate one left. I'm out of the club, at least for wall #2.
Lol too funny. Can I still post the really atrocious ones? I guess not but someone better take President and out the funny ones.
Quoted from AJB4:yup u r outta the no toppers club - and you were the charter member who was brave enough to make ponball great again by declaring our mutual distaste for all manners of toppers - disgusting and demoralizing
having even 1 topper out of 30 games is like being just a little bit pregnant
no club for you
come back 2 yrs
Quoted from yzfguy:HA! Your founder has caved!!!! Proof that toppers rule!
Trying one on the B wall is not caved but I can no longer be President as a rat. Lol
Quoted from AJB4:Look I have empathy as I will admit (only in this private club but not out in public) that I have considered getting the aerosmith topper but I think back to when I had my LOTR LE and it had a laser etched topper with red led lighting. It was just so outta place and just gave me the creeps. From time to time we all get that little voice saying "But what if..."
you gotta resist and no matter how color coordinated that Aerosmith topper is I am just going to say NO!!!!! If I don't draw a hard line, where will it stop??? Like I said, there is no such thing as a little bit pregnant - it's all or none baby!!!
I saw the Aerosmith one this weekend at jints56 and it is beyond tasteful, really a nice piece of work with the Les Paul's.

Quoted from SilverUnicorn:Is this group still meeting?
I have one topper, on mt BK2K, and that came from Williams (I think). Hope I can stay.
1 topper out of 15 is an acceptable ratio, put it on a wall not featured

I thought about jumping over to the dark side for some toppers but went this direction with posters instead. I do have a few toppers that came with the games, and the JJP GnR topper but I’m not installing it as the posters feel classy.

Quoted from yzfguy:Just popping in to stir the shit and let you guys know I ordered the Rush topper for 1700 bucks! LOL
Looked pretty cool, just not something I’d spend on.
