I'm pretty excited about this myself. I've only seen two good overlays ... the run of Black Knight done many years ago (I think his art was used for CPR's run of Black Knight PFs) and the Funhouse overlays Phoenix Arcade did. I hear some of the Kiss and EBD overlays out there were well done, but the rest of the overlays I've seen, while better than trashed, worn out art, aren't enough for me .

The hardtop has the potential to be the perfect tradeoff on price/quality/appearance ... especially for titles that have a decent following, but not enough of a voice to get good-looking new playfield artwork made (In terms of WMS games, I'm thinking of games like Flash, TriZone, Comet, etc).

Plus, it seems like it wouldn't be too costly to maintain some kind of inventory (i.e. suppose they do something like Flash Gordon ... I doubt it'd be a problem to print up a new batch, make a few immediate sales, and maintain a bit of inventory for those that stumble upon a FG in the wild and want to make it look nice w/o paying a small fortune).

I really hope this company gets some great data and sells a great product thereafter!!!
