Quoted from MikeS:

I got all excited when I saw new posts on this thread. I want to see this happen as well! X4
Well it's not as preferable as a new PF, is Hardtop a potential option on this game?

hardtop is definitely not an option IMHO

We need the real deal. Hardtops play odd and also mean lots of otherwise possibly restorable pfs get sanded into oblivion.

Quoted from MikeS:

I recently picked up a pretty nice unpopulated playfield for my Alien Star. Was going to have it touched up and cleared to swap in my game but if it can be used to scan for playfields to be made by a manufacturer I may be willing to lend it out to help out the group.[quoted image]

Mike,

PLEASE reach out directly to CPR and see what we can do here.

I think this is going to take the community working to make it happen. Guessing we would need to line up all the puzzle pieces and push it forward.

Quoted from gdonovan:

I'm going to call Steve Young this morning and put a bug in his ear.

What would it take to make this a reality?

Guessing:
1. Steve Young to sign off on allowing it or we pay a flat fee for the option?
2. Someone able to make the correct at files?
3. We commission a small run from CPR to make these?

Quoted from SilverballSleuth:

Folks -
I have too much time on my hands. I got a hold of a playfield scan. It's rough, and it's gonna take about 40 hours or so, but it will look NOS, or very close to it when I am done.
When it is done, I will make it accessible to the entire community, for free and for educational purposes of course. I will also make several color variations.

Nice and rhx

Quoted from Highclasspinball:

Hi,
If here still is demand I can work on this title in spring after finishing a few others which are still in production. But in any case I need one physical board here, no matter what condition and pictures or scan of the areas which are damaged on this playfield. If we get close to that I will reach out for the licence...
Regards,
Mirco

Scan is above. It needs cleanup but should give you what you need overall.

I pinged a buddy that possibly has a pf he pulled from his game.

And there is definitely demand

Quoted from hisokajp:

if no one has a PF pulled, I could stripped out mine and send it out for a "good cause". Graphic would need to come from somewhere else but I assume physical PF is needed for holes and dimpling

I believe Mike S has contact Micro. He has a good enough spare that can work.
