Quoted from animesuperj:

Scanning stuff is super easy when it's already torn apart and available, lol.
Playfield scans located here:

@animesuperj, these scans are excellent. Much less lens distortion than I am used to seeing from stitching playfield images together from a flatbed. Can I ask what scanner you are using? There were only two scans in the batch that I had to push and pull a bit to get aligned.

Quoted from pavel_one:

I am again requesting anyone with a decent, unfaded Stars playfield and the ability to match Pantone colors, please take a minute and give the codes for the RED, YELLOW, ORANGE and BLUE. That would be wicked cool of you.

All PANTONE solid coated:

Blue: PANTONE 647 C
Orange: PANTONE 1595 C
Yellow: PANTONE 7404 C
Red: PANTONE 1795 C

I hope they didn't butcher the fonts like they did on Meteor.

Quoted from KevinCPR:

Well before you decided to get that little jolt of satisfaction to post this jab... did you take 10 seconds to go check the picture gallery, to find out? Serious question.

Honestly, I did. At the given resolution (low) some number densities look too thin (7000 for example) and the type kerning on every instance of "LIT" is wrong, but these are just nitpicks that only a font wonk would notice so that is just my personal hangup. The majority looks very nice.

Hope there is a fixed Meteor available someday. I'd love to replace my worn out one.

Edit: and I'm not just trolling you. I love the art (even the era-specific font anachronisms) on these games and want them to be the best they can be.
