Dude - I don't know about you....but Cosmetics can make a big difference in the over all Feel and Play of anything. To me - the difference of the lights shining DOWN on the playfield, while the ball hits it and/or it stays lit - is a most killer NEW Look, Feel, and Play. As far as the Reflection off of them as well......it is Solid - not cut outs or ANY light shining or showing upwards. A BIG difference if you are trying to compare our products here.
As far as Hooked - which I have the UTMOST respect for - we have been working on these for well over a year now. As far as them being the same??? Well - to start with, they are for WMS/BALLY ( UNIVERSAL ) machines. Big Difference there - He makes custom ones for STERN. Also - they are Angel Eye LED's ( Round Circle Discs with 21 LED's on EACH )....another big difference there huh? Not to mention that they are plastic caps that are Mirror - Metalized in a VERY complex ( To get the Quality we set our high standards for ) process and are SOLID COLORED MIRROR - in 10 Different Mirrored Colors. Lights do not shine UP - They shine DOWN. This is not copying anyone here Mr. Frax - NO ONE has a product that is Similar to this one in the market.
This is Pinside for ya.....but thanks for the Negativity "BRO". I personally think they are awesome and I LOVE them on my machines. But thanks for the kind props mate - always makes a chap feel good.
