Hate to bump an old thread, but I got a kick out of this one. The Fathom backglass that was photographed for the early repro was my original. I have my original and one of the early repros. That said, if there's another run of Fathom backglasses better matched to the original, I'll buy one.
At the time this was done, well over 10 years ago, there was nothing better or even close. Doing this type of repro just wasn't perfected.
What's kinda sad is I have the first run Halifax playfield, bunch of rebuild parts from PBR, rebuilt MPU by Chris Munson and I STILL haven't started on it. I'm seriously planning on tackling it this fall.
