Quoted from Red_Devils:Well I have an update and it's not a good one I heard back from the designer and here is an excerpt from his email to me...
"Apparently my mod is a trademark infringement on the ALIEN word/logo which is registered/owned by Twentieth Century Fox Film Corporation and any commercial use without purchasing a license agreement this is not allowed."
He is also going so far as to pull all the YouTube video from the original Heighway version he created because of this threat.
He also stated that the people helping him with the design and electronics have backed out for fear of being sued. It looks like Pinball Brothers have got what they wanted, no competition on the aprons. This really sucks and kind of leaves a bad taste in my mouth with PB, it sure sounds like he received a cease and desist letter and "somebody" brought it to light with them.
I want to thank all you guys who wanted in on this amazing mod and it is a sad day that we aren't going to be able to see this on our machines.
Peace out guys.
Red_Devils out...
Nooooooo! So freaking bummed! I'd love one without the logo then. The acid burns are so amazing!
Quoted from Royale-W-Cheese:no way brah....the list is almost at 75 people. I think when we are ready we will have about 60 happy alien apron owners.
Outstanding!! I was destroyed when I heard this project wasn't going to be available for SV owners. Thanks so much for your perseverance!
