    “Should I make more Ghostbusters machines?”

    • Do nothing. Stick with the original plan of making a one-off custom and helping others make their own custom games. 22 votes

    • Try to obtain licensing to make a limited run of machines. (this could be nearly impossible and attract unwanted attention) 1 vote

    • Risk it and make a small run of machines and/or kits. Pinball flies below the radar. 11 votes

    If you are concerned about exact copies of your layout/design I would remove any images of the unpopulated playfield from the web. I remember seeing a picture of the printed overlay posted on photobucket or some site like that. Don't make it easy for them to copy your hard work.

    Making a short run of pins or a conversion kit to sell on ebay or elsewhere could be risky, but you could be commissioned to make one off machines for people who ask, just like any other artist. So in other words you make them to order like a pizza mmmm pizza.
