Are you possibly thinking about any of the older films such as Forbidden Planet, War of the Worlds, Time Machine, etc? Something like Attack from Mars couldn't hurt...
...and get yo ass to Jersey!
Just reading this thread gives me a tingle in me gulliver! THIS is the future of Pinball! Guys like this getting together and creating something from the ground up. They listen to our opinions, they love the game...gee, I'm gettin' all misty!
Just make a holder where you could slide a metal engraved tag in or out. If you buy the machine from someone you just slide their tag out and put your own in...
I wish the backglass was one of those linticular (?) thingys where when you move the Predator is seen without the headgear with mouth open...
Hey Skitsters! What did you think about my comment about making a lenticular backglass that changes picture...or 3D.
Some here thought it was a cool idea...and some thought it was a bad idea...
When I suggested a lenticular backglass I didn't mean to take money away for anything else. If it's gonna add that much to the price... forget it. I just thought it would be cool to see the Predator face with those mandibles open in full roar. And, yes, the Backglass is the ooo & ahhh factor that attracts someone to the pin...or just nice to look at. Just my 2 cents.
True. It would just be for anyone standing and watching the game.
I forgot about not many, if any, of these machines would be on location....
How about THIS for a Predator Topper!

You don't want to put a real laser on any machine, no matter what. The risk is just too great. There are plenty of LED's or strobe lights that can be used instead.
I want the Predator on the side...headpiece off...arms outstretched...mandibles open, screaming!
My 2¢
When you get better, let me know what you think of my earlier post for the side art. Predator...helmet off, mouth open, arms outstretched, chest up.
Hi guys! Are you still thinking of removing / changing (to you know what!) the 2 targets directly in front of the flippers?
Just send an email and wait. If you don't hear anything in a few days, send another email. I'm pretty sure there are some still available.
Don't worry...It'll be soon!
...and, Dude...I agree! I've never been a fan of mini playfields. (OR anything over 3 flippers) I LOVE the Wizard of Oz theme...but 2 mini fields? (have to wait to play it...hopefully it will change my mind!)

Like the theme. Would probably still be interested if it were Stern.
Love the guys! Very excited by the team! Makes you feel like you're getting in on something special!

Yes, I know what you mean. Very hard to look at my parrot's picture without a problem.
I still miss my birdy feet....
For me, as a director, Kane is the American Masterpiece.
Godfather would be in the top 10 fer sure.
...this is my list.
Also on there would be:
The Sound of Music
Rear Window
Psycho
The Magnificent 7
The Great Escape
My Fair Lady
The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951)
...if a bunch of you youngins haven't seen them....get to da choppa!!!
Quoted from blondetall:Someone change the symbols on this. (Ted? That's your thing.)
lol...don't get me started....
We talked to them about this. Can't use a real laser...but can use those little red LED's on something.
Just write to them and tell them you'll take any number available. Then wait. They will contact you when to send in half the loot. When machine is done, send in other half. They ship. You play. Nuff said.
Quoted from underlord:I emailed Kevin twice about this pin. No answer. Looks like I'm out.
Rick.
Keep the faith!
Yes, if you don't care about the number, they just give you the next one available that someone didn't request.
