Quoted from Rock914:No interest?
Hmm, I would really like to add LEDs to my TFTC topper in the bat's and rat's eyes and maybe add an LED lighting strip in front of the topper with a remote control for changing the LED lighting effects on demand.
Who do I know that could do this for me? 
Thanks again Chris for the tremendous upgrade that you did when you repaired and upgraded the LED lighting on my TFTC topper. My TFTC topper is working perfectly now and the LED lighting effects add to the overall creepy atmosphere of my TFTC.

Quoted from Boat:So you would do a reproduction of the similar looking tftc one?

Did you post in the fang club?
Did they do an exact replica? The only repro I have seen was made of foam. Does anyone have the topper from PBL? No need for me to make a repro if it exists already.

Chris,
It does appear to be an exact replica. I have a spare TFTC topper that I purchased from PBL in July of 2015 and it appears to be the same as the original topper.
As I recall they had them in limited quantities, but according to their website they still have them in stock.

Thanks Gord! No need for me to waste my time on these if they are available to those who need them. I had no idea PLB remade them, that’s awesome!

Quoted from modfather:I like to do custom painting on both of those toppers. They " all " grey always looked flat to me
I can’t believe I didn’t see your post until now!
Do you have some examples of what you do to these toppers? I am thinking about reproducing these again (TFTC). Perhaps we could work together if you do custom painting and such.
I like to custom paint the front title to match the game and look much better. The original is flat with no color to show off the cool design this topper really is. I like to put mini leds in the eyes of the Bat and Rat. These toppers look great and are impossible to find. I would be happy to help out in any way to get these made. The Jurassic Park toppers are basically the same idea. They could use some love to.
